The general secretary of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello Rondón, emphasized that these were not soldiers but the People with whom he trained with machetes, “they weren't soldiers, it was the People, Militiamen? Yes, peasants, yes, with a machete in hand.”

This was stated by Cabello, referring to the recent swearing in of the Peasant Militia, in response to longliner Emmanuel Rincón, who pointed out that Cabello threatened soldiers with machetes.

“They weren't just men, women too,” he said.

In addition, in his Con El Mazo Dando program, broadcast number 548, he highlighted that José Amalio Graterol, political secretary of the Vente Venezuela party, made a comment on this same subject, who said that Cabello was looking like the Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega.

“No, I'm not Noriega, he was a CIA agent all his life. I have had a crush on the CIA all my life,” he said.

Cabello stressed that in that position “there is a small difference, I don't know if they convinced Noriega and they said: You take out that machete and that's it, solved the problem”.

In this context, he stressed that “the problem is that you (don't understand) when a People decide to be free, even with a machete in your hand, a knife, with a stick. That's a problem. A conscious people”.

“They (extremist opposition) insist on underestimating us,” he stressed.
