This Tuesday, November 10, the sectoral vice-president for Politics, Citizen Security and Peace, Diosdado Cabello Rondón, highlighted the role of Communes and Community Councils as fundamental structures of the Bolivarian Revolution, stressing their presence throughout the national territory and the exercise of popular self-government.

“Right now we have Communes and Communal Councils all over Venezuela, it's not enough to say that it's in the territory, to that territory you have to add self-government, Popular Power there (...). It has to do with the fundamental structure of the Bolivarian Revolution. And in this case, today, today, the presence throughout the territory,” he said.

During the Community Meeting held at the Heroes of Chirica Socialist Mission Base, in the Caroní municipality of Bolívar state, Cabello emphasized that it is thanks to Commander Hugo Chávez and the conscience of the People that today we have communal structures throughout the country.

He recalled that the creation of the first Communes faced difficulties. “It was a fight with mayors and governors (...) it was sabotaged, it wasn't understood at first,” he said.

For this reason, he valued the effort that has been made with the Popular Consultations, reaffirming that “Commune or Nothing” is not a single motto, but is “the power that our People have in each territory to decide, to do, to interact”.
