The President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, announced this Thursday the deployment of the Bolivarian National Militia (MNB) in the 5,336 Communal Circuits of the country. This measure seeks to strengthen peace, citizen security, national unity, territorial integrity, and the sovereignty of Venezuela.
The president ordered the incorporation of MNB reservists into the Peace Quadrants, with the goal of optimizing security strategies and improving coordination between security forces and communities. More than 2,000 members, including members of the MNB, the Bolivarian National Police (PNB), the Bolivarian National Guard (GNB), PDVSA and Corpoelec workers, as well as representatives of the People’s Power, support this initiative.
The MNB will actively participate in patrolling, surveillance, and other security actions, in conjunction with various state agencies.
The Third Transformation: Basis of the Security Strategy:
This initiative is part of the Third Transformation (3T) guidelines of the Plan de la Patria (Homeland Plan), which looks to strengthen the logistical and organizational capacity to guarantee security in the 299 Communal Circuits of Caracas.
Nationwide, more than 2,000 Peace Quadrants have already been implemented, equipped with motorcycles, advanced communication systems, and vehicles exclusively destined for patrolling. These efforts are aligned with the protection of sovereignty and the consolidation of peace in Venezuelan territory.
President Maduro has reiterated that the coordination between the Peace Quadrants, the Communal Circuits, and the MNB will make the country impregnable against criminal groups such as mafias, drug traffickers, and other elements that threaten national stability.
Present at the event were First Lady Cilia Flores; the Vice President of Political Sovereignty, Security, and Peace, Vladimir Padrino López; the Strategic Operational Commander of the National Guard (FANB), Domingo Hernández Lárez; the Commander General of the Bolivarian Militia, Orlando Romero Bolívar; the Minister for Communes, Ángel Prado; and the Mayor of Caracas, Carmen Meléndez, among other officials.
