Before hundreds of supporters, the Venezuelan leader stated that his new electoral victory is a triumph of the ideas of equality, while remembering the leader of the Bolivarian Revolution, Hugo Chavez.
Maduro demanded that the opposition forces respect the popular will and highlighted the virtues of the Venezuelan electoral system, characterized by multiple audits throughout the electoral process.
“As president, I ask for respect for the Constitution, the public powers, the sovereign life of Venezuela, and the popular will… I will defend our law and our desire,” Maduro said, promising that his electoral victory opens the opportunity to carry out all the changes that Venezuela needs.
During his new mandate, the Bolivarian leader will work to recover all the rights violated by the economic war unleashed by the United States and its allies against the Bolivarian nation.
“We must thank the people of Venezuela for their tenacity, perseverance, and awareness. They inflicted a tremendous psychological war on us. All social networks launched daily campaigns to favor the demons,” he said, alluding to the collusion of transnational right-wing forces with Venezuelan oligarchies.
Maduro also thanked the National Electoral Council, the Bolivarian National Armed Forces, the electoral observers, and all the people who made the presidential elections of July 28 possible.
Electoral System Hacking
Maduro denounced that the electoral system was attacked “massively” from abroad and blamed local far-right forces for being involved in the maneuver as they intended to prevent the election results from being announced.
“Venezuela suffered a massive hacking of the CNE’s transmission system. We know from which country this attack came… They didn’t want the results to be published today,” he said, explaining that the sabotage against the CNE was intended to support the narratives of an alleged electoral fraud through which the Venezuelan far-right sought to undermine the electoral authorities.
President Maduro asked the Prosecutor’s Office to start investigations to sanction those responsible for hacking the electoral transmission system. On Sunday, Venezuelan security forces captured several people who intended to tarnish the elections by burning electoral centers.
“We will not allow them to start a spiral of violence… Peace will prevail in Venezuela,” Maduro said and urged the Prosecutor’s Office to apply the full weight of the law against those who encouraged violent actions.
New Call for Dialogue
The re-elected president of Venezuela announced that his government plan, summarized in “The Seven Transformations,” will be implemented through a new process of national dialogue and consensus.
“I want peace, love, and understanding. With the power you have granted me and with the civic-military-police union, I will promote a great national dialogue to achieve economic, social, cultural, political, moral, and spiritual understandings,” Maduro said, emphasizing that he will prioritize economic dialogue to consolidate his country’s growth.
The political dialogue will include all the political forces in the country and will start from respect for the Constitution, the laws, the institutions, and the people.
“Political dialogue cannot just include political parties. It must seek the political opinion, aspirations, and visions of the citizen. Therefore, it must be a dialogue through which citizens call on political parties and movements to deepen democracy,” the Bolivarian leader explained.
In the presidential elections held on Sunday, Nicolas Maduro, the candidate of the Great Patriotic Pole, received 5,150,092 votes, which is 51 percent of the votes.
