The president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, offered this Monday “all protection” to opposition politicians victims of threats, and supported the investigation undertaken by the Attorney General’s Office regarding the complaint made by the anti-Chavista presidential candidate Delsa Solórzano, who reported that she received messages where they assure that they will murder her.
“I condemn all kinds of violence and I offer all the protection against this type of threats that, without a doubt, are setups that come from perverse sectors that want to disturb the peace and security of Venezuela. My respect to all the leaders of the opposition, whatever differences we may have,” said the president during his weekly “Con Maduro +” program.
The president assured that he ordered the Minister of the Interior and Justice, Remigio Ceballos, that the government also investigate the death threats received by the opposition presidential candidate, who on Saturday denounced that, through Facebook, messages that included phrases as “the collective forces of the ELN (National Liberation Army) are going to assassinate you”.
“This investigation is going to be carried out, the truth is going to be discovered. For me it is a montage of malicious people, because the threat is made in the name of Maduro, Diosdado (Cabello), of the Bolivarian revolution. We have never, ever used the methods of terrorism, attacks and violence to resolve our political differences,” he said.
He assured that Chavismo has “never” used violence, and reiterated that in his government they are “people of peace, people of dialogue.”
After Solórzano – one of the 13 people who seeks to become the opposition standard-bearer for the 2024 presidential elections – made the threats public, the attorney general, Tarek William Saab, reported that he was appointed the 94th national prosecutor in matters of rights humans to investigate this fact.
