The Minister of People’s Power for Interior Relations, Justice and Peace, Diosdado Cabello, emphasized that the National Union of Press Workers (SNTP) has been spreading fake news with the aim of distorting the reality of what is truly happening, as well as propagating lies about the actions of the National Government:
«The National Union of Journalists is more discredited than the OAS,» stressed Cabello, while mentioning that it is an institution dedicated to defending lies; however, he affirmed: «We will always stand on the side of the truth. We will always speak it, always.»
In turn, he emphasized that it is hatred that drives them, while «we are driven by an infinite love for the people of Venezuela,» detailed Cabello. He also emphasized that the National Government has always been driven by a love beyond measure for “the people who have been hit hard, for the people who are suffering.”
For his part, Cabello questioned the number of journalists who have generated hate campaigns about the country simply to gain likes and monetize their content. He also stressed that going to the affected areas is not about recording a video for social media. “It’s about going to listen to the people, to talk with them. Talking to them in their most difficult moments.”
He affirmed that, along with the President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez, were deployed from the very first moment and that the National Dignitary has been at the forefront since the first moment of the seismic event.
