The first vice-president of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello Rondón, stressed that “we complied with Chávez a little late but we complied with him”, referring to the Law on Oversight, Regularization, Action and Financing of Non-Governmental and Related Organizations, recently approved by the National Assembly (AN).

“It was a debt that we had,” he said.

In his Con El Mazo Dando program, broadcast number 491, he dismissed the allegations of the Undersecretary for Western Hemisphere Affairs of the United States Department of State, Brian Nichols, who in a publication considers it an attack on civil society.

Faced with this statement, Cabello argued that the gringos consider the attacks on revolutionaries valid, but not the defense that those attacks by the Chavistas.

“Why do gringos think they are above good and evil? And officials like this man, very dragged down, say this,” Cabello said.

Regarding the aforementioned law, he stressed that “he will adjust the nuts, where they need to be adjusted”.

As an example, he commented that “there is a string of pimps, the NGO, like PROVEA (...) someone is arrested and when that person leaves, PROVEA immediately comes to the family” and they allege that he was released because of his efforts “and the blackmail against the family begins”.

He argued that keeping away from blackmail and receiving resources from outside “that ended this law.”
