In this regard, the head of state forcefully stated that the old democracy no longer represents the drive of history, because «the vanguard emerges from Venezuela in a modest and humble manner, as an alternative to direct democracy from the community, from the people and popular self-government.»
Building a New Power from the Grassroots of People’s Power:
Based on this, he said that this victory “has also been a gift, an opportunity from God for the Venezuelan people to reunite, engage in dialogue, and have a common project as a country to develop new ideas that will lead the country to concrete, action-based solutions to the people’s problems and build a new power.»
«In Venezuela, the people at the grassroots have the most power now,» he emphasized.
At the same time, the president recalled that the Venezuelan people sent a clear message with their victory in the regional and legislative elections, which is the building of a new power, the power of ordinary men and women, of communities, of the territory, of a new democracy that has confronted the decadence and collapse of the old Western civilization: The old liberal and bourgeois democracy.
On the other hand, he emphasized that these elections “are like throwing holy water on a devil who came to attack the country with all his fury to prevent the elections from taking place, but again they tried and we defeated them. The fury of fascism tried, but they couldn’t, and we won’t allow it!»
