“There was no praise for anyone here. What’s more, the issue of Human Rights. Do you know what? I told President Maduro to his face that human rights were being violated in his country. To his face,” the mayor said in Without makeuphis Youtube show.
The mayor of Recoleta, Daniel Jadue (PC), assured that during his trip to Venezuela he told President Nicolás Maduro that Human Rights (HR) were violated in his country.
The communal chief made his statements in Without makeuphis Youtube show.
“Here there was no praise for anyone. Moreover, the issue of Human Rights. Did you know? I told President Maduro to his face that human rights were violated in his country. In his face,” he said.
“For those who want to see the full video of my speech, what I saluted was that unlike our country those who violate human rights in Venezuela are in prison and there they accepted an office of the International Criminal Court that is working and there are more than 300 State officials, policemen, because the Armed Forces (FFAA) there do not take care of order, they are sentenced to sentences of more than 20 years,” he added.
After that, Jadue asserted that he has never said that Venezuela is an example and invited those who doubt that to review his columns in this regard..
“I have always condemned human rights violations and I condemn them there, in Palestine, in Cyprus, anywhere in the world. In Chile too”, he indicated.
Darts against the role of the Chilean Armed Forces
In the program, Jadue also harshly criticized the role of the Chilean Armed Forces during the Popular Unity, the dictatorship, and compared it to the response of the Venezuelan institutions at the beginning of the Hugo Chávez era.
In his opinion, it is remarkable that the Venezuelan Armed Forces have not yielded to foreign pressure to attack their own people..
Along these lines, the mayor claimed to have heard testimonies from soldiers and officials to whom the United States offered “money, visas and residences”, but that “they said no, do not mess with our country”.
“It is quite remarkable that in a country there are Armed Forces that when a foreign power comes to ask them to rise up and overthrow their own government, they say ‘no’”, he deepened.
Thus, Jadue said he hopes that one day Chile will have Armed Forces of this type, “that defend national sovereignty, natural resources, that do not let others appropriate them and kill our people”.
“I am very calm. I am going to continue traveling so that the media that annoys them that there is so much interest from the whole world in learning about the experiences of Recoleta and that they continue to invite us, will continue to be annoyed,” he concluded.
His trip to Venezuela took place within the framework of the Summit against Fascism in Caracas.
At the event, the mayor made headlines with a video in which he greeted the Bolivarian Armed Forces and charged that in Chile those who violate human rights do not go to jail.
“In my country, when human rights are violated, it has never been seen that a human rights violator is prosecuted for justice. Never in my country have they imprisoned those who took the eyes of those who went out to protest three years ago, ”she launched.
