This marks the 6th straight Saturday that the people of Venezuela have come out in support of President Maduro in a massive way. Each week they have gotten bigger. Meanwhile in the more affluent neighborhoods the handpicked wannabe president of the U.S, Guaido has held demonstrations too and since January those have become increasingly smaller. This important indicator of the relationship of popular support goes without comment in the corporate pro interventionist media. -editorial
Venezuela’s Bolivarian people took the streets Saturday to carry out the sixth consecutive anti-imperialist march, an event aimed at backing President Nicolas Maduro administration and rejecting the interventionist policies by the United States and its regional allies.
Later in the afternoon, Venezuelan President Niolas Maduro addressed the crowd directly, highlighting the importance to preserve peace in the country.
“We are going to defend peace in every corner, parish, municipality, avenue, community and neighborhood. They are not going to take away our peace. We are fixing the electrical system from the imperialist bestial attacks,” President Maduro said and requested “maximum consciousness, nerves of steel, calm and wisdom!”
The Venezuelan leader also addressed the crowd on the current investigation of the attacks on the country’s electrical system. Stating that the most recent attacks were carried out via Chile and Colombia, with help of the U.S. government and denouncing them as acts of “cyber-terrorism.”
The President asked the crowd if “the opposition thinks that the people will accept them taking power through terrorism?” Self-proclaimed interim-President Juan Guaido has repeadetly shown his will to follow the guidlines of the U.S. administration and even threatened to ask for military intervention against his own country.
Saturday’s marches comes just days after the National Constituent Assembly (ANC) voted to strip Guaido of his parliamentarian immunity at Venezuelan Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ).
