The president of the National Assembly (AN), Jorge Rodríguez, urged the Public Ministry on Tuesday to act against the leaders of the far right wing who are trying to sow violence in the country, and stated that “there is no compromise with fascism, but the laws apply,” he said.
In this sense, the parliamentarian asked for a legal process to be initiated against the former presidential candidate Edmundo González Urrutia and his second, María Corina Machado:
“The Public Ministry not only has to act against the drug-addicted criminals to whom they give $40 to terrorize a woman. Their bosses, those who paid them, have to go to jail. When I say bosses, I am not only referring to María Corina Machado, I am referring to Edmundo González Urrutia, because he is the head of the fascist conspiracy that they are trying to impose in Venezuela,” he stressed.
On the other hand, he reiterated that with fascism there is no negotiation nor are benefits given, the full weight of the law is to be applied to them: “With fascism there is no compromise, the laws must be applied,” he reiterated, highlighting that the punishment for these crimes committed against the homeland and the stability of the nation is prison.
In this sense, he stressed that (with) this new attempt by the extreme right wing to seize power, based on a lie, what they hide are the intentions of handing over our country to “their owners, the gringos.”
He pointed out that for this purpose they are trying to apply the formula of self-proclamation used with Juan Guaidó: “The self-proclamation is the same as this of the fake minutes,” he stressed.
“He is a liar, a criminal, who seeks to impose the gringos’ plan to steal our wealth, our oil, to sanction us and block us. Only that now they are including the plan of violence and terror against our people,” he said.
He also stressed that in these new attempts to fill the people with terror, they directed the acts of violence to the neighborhoods and for this purpose they are using common criminals to whom they pay 40 dollars a day:
“To achieve their ends they were trying to frighten our people,” he said and stressed that “they resort to the most violent ways to sow fear, so that a society accepts and receives any postulate they may have as good,” he expressed.
