This Wednesday, January 29, the general secretary of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello Rondón, emphasized that the releases were ordered since last December, by the President of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro, “we are giving them continuity”.

“I want to clarify those who today are campaigning for the alleged political prisoners in Venezuela, are celebrating because President Nicolás Maduro is kidnapped in the United States. They applaud him, he is a political prisoner, because they don't ask for him too. It's hypocrisy,” he said.

During his Con El Mazo Dando program, on broadcast number 560, he stated that until this Tuesday, January 27, “808 citizens were released, each with their own status, there have been nationals and foreigners.”

“They have been released, what we ask is that those who have been released, that they understand two things: while they were there, the opposition sectors did not name them, nor did they visit them and even less were they aware of their family,” he said.

Secondly, Cabello assured that his release is also due to a plan “presented by the colleague Delcy Rodríguez, that of Coexistence and Peace”.
