The general secretary of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello Rondón, referred this Monday to the recent statements of the president of Colombia regarding the construction of walls on the border.

“I haven't heard that, but he's going to have to spend (Espriella) quite a bit of money, because there are 2,000-odd kilometers of border. We are not to build walls, we are to open arms, to embrace,” said Cabello during the press conference of the National Directorate of the PSUV.

Regarding the alleged legal action of the Head of State, Delcy Rodríguez, in Spain against businessman Víctor de Aldama, the leader of the PSUV indicated that he is unaware of the case and classified it as a personal issue. He also denounced the spread of false news by opposing factors. “Every time they say something about one of us, that becomes viral news. They should investigate opposition funding,” he said.

Cabello urged the militancy to remain focused on territorial work and on the consolidation of national unity. “We have to continue doing the work we are doing, consolidating the union of the revolutionary forces, the Community Councils, speaking to our people. That is what the opposition doesn't like. That is the task that we have repeated to the party: to go where no one else is going,” he concluded.
