MUD issues communiqué servile to foreign interests

The so-called Bureau of Democratic Unity has issued a communiqué that is unprecedented in the contemporary history of Venezuelan politics. It seems impossible to believe that a sector that makes political life in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, is openly servile to foreign interests, and calls for a military intervention of our country.

They continue committing incitement to the assassination, with a speech loaded with hatred and violence.

With that text, they ask other countries to do the same as the United States did on August 25, which is to act in a xenophobic way against our country, and set aside international law and treaties. There is no other way to understand this text, beyond categorizing it as the most fascist of all communications that have ever been read.

In fact, it is not a communiqué, it is a petition for war against Venezuela, it is the petition to Non-Integration, Non-International Law, Non-Sovereignty of Peoples, Non-Dialogue, Non-Democracy, Non-Life.

This statement is the NO-Politics, is to return to the obscurantism of the guillotine and death to the enemy. Which enemy? For the National Government, the enemy is fascism anywhere in the world whether or not it is against Venezuela, because fascism is contrary to humanity and to the solidarity of humanity.

For the MUD the enemy is Venezuela. We know this is not a sanction against President Nicolás Maduro, is a sanction against 30 million Venezuelans, and especially the 8 million and many more who could not remain in their homes on July 30, the ones who wagered to resolve their conflicts through PEACE: and thus they said so.

The National Government categorically rejects a text framed in hatred, of a warlike, anti-patriotic, anti-nationalist and anti-integrationist nature.

We call on loyal forces, men and women attached to nationalist and patriotic values. It is time to unite against the threats of the empire, and now against the threats of the fascist rogue who makes life in the ranks of Venezuelan opposition.

Venezuela is a sovereign, free Homeland, based on the principles of Equality, Justice and Defense of our Sovereignty and Citizen Security. This will continue, as long as the Government and the Venezuelan people march together along the path of peace, there will be no human power to prevent our victory over imperial and national fascism. A Victory that was consolidated on July 30 and will continue to strengthen. Nobody said it would be easy, but this is the way. There is no way to peace, peace is the way.

This is the moment to express our love for Venezuela, as in the moment Dr. Jose Gregorio Hernandez did by supporting our country along with the President of that time, Cipriano Castro, amidst the imperial blockade of the early 20th century. Just as Jose Manuel “Mocho” Hernandez did, despite his strong opposition to the government of Cipriano Castro. This is no time to hesitate. The position to take is only one; love for Venezuela is shown defending it from anyone who tries to humiliate it by whatever means.

Let us therefore continue building the Homeland: Working men and women, Peasants, Students; Women and elder adults, to defend the future, to defend what we have achieved with so much sacrifice. We are born to overcome, and not to be overcome.

Union, Union of the Patriots

Independence and Socialist Homeland

Long Live Bolivar!
