From the day of the elections, he sent a group of young people to destroy and hid himself. He washed his hands like Pilate. The TSJ summoned him legally and it was mandatory that he go and did not go. Now, worse than Guaidó, he intends to do politics through Twitter and the right wing goes out to proclaim him president: Guaidó part two», he denounced.
The president stressed that the plan of the right is to give a fascist coup against the powers of the constitutional state of Venezuela; while, «imperialism claims to say that in Venezuela the gringo government, foreign governments and determine what works or not in Venezuela. What is that called? Colonialism».
«And I say to the people: let us preserve peace and strengthen production. The last word is with the Venezuelan institutions, because fascist criminals are cowards», he said.
