Diosdado Cabello: If the opposition is an expert at anything, it is in underestimating Chavism

The general secretary of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello Rondón, said that, since the arrival of the Bolivarian Revolution, the opposition has constantly failed in its plans due to the underestimation of the strength and unity of the revolutionary and patriotic forces.

“If the opposition is an expert at anything, it is in underestimating Chavism,” he said and pointed out that the Venezuelan right has been marked by constantly giving in to contradictions and internal fights.

“How many contradictions between themselves. Now none of them said what they said five months or six months ago, none of them assume their ravine and you just have to search, there are the newspaper archives and all of them, what is your name? , the internet records of what they were saying here, and I'm not talking about the last six months, in the last two years,” he said.

He stated that contrary to this erratic action of the oppositions, Chavism has focused on strengthening unity within its ranks with a clear vision of the objectives “accepting our errors and correcting them”.

“To us, look, when the enemy is making a mistake, we don't interrupt him at all. We play the 'gualbertos' and we look the other way so that he keeps making mistakes,” he said.

Wealth at the service of the People!

During the 581 broadcast of his Con El Mazo Dando program, the also sectoral vice-president of Politics, Citizen Security and Peace referred to the recent Energy Agreement signed between the Governments of Venezuela and the United States (USA), and stressed that this has as its main objective to generate wealth for the benefit of the Venezuelan people.

In this regard, he questioned those who, without arguments and using false news, are trying to attack this agreement that guarantees investments for the country and the development of the oil industry.

“Well, I don't know if sovereignty means having oil inside, under the ground and not using it. If that's the concept of sovereignty, well, they're right. Now, if it's using Venezuela's natural resources to generate wealth for our people, then we are being sovereign with our oil,” he said.

In this regard, he drew attention to the obvious contradiction within Venezuelan extremism, which maintained a discourse in favor of an oil agreement with the United States, and now attacks the initiative of both governments.

“What is very strange is that those who until recently asked for that (agreement), now don't want it for Venezuela. Opposition sectors that said and spoke, 'we are going to become the main one I don't know what', are making a pure story, a pure gamelote. Now that we're going to do it, then they don't want it. You don't understand them, help us so that we can understand them because otherwise they look very bad. Their contradictions are terrible, terrible,” he said.

Proud of our miscegenation!

On the other hand, he called for the rejection of racism and highlighted the importance of promoting the pride of Venezuela and its aboriginal and African roots.

“Let us be proud to carry Indian blood, to carry black blood in our veins. Let's be proud of the mix that we are and that comes from there,” he invited while recalling how racism was established in Venezuela by political and economic elites.

“Who here in Venezuela recognized the rights of Afro-descendant brothers? Hugo Chavez! Here in Venezuela, in this country, my country, your country, racism still persisted until recently. And you don't know, you don't know if right now what they have is a cover up. Do you remember that, in the National Assembly in 2015, when a man came there and said: 'You don't enter the assembly here with rubber shoes or blue jeans? In the assembly, 2015, the People could not enter and no one said anything. There were businesses here that they had, you reserve the right of admission, and if you were black they wouldn't let you in, and no one said anything, no one said anything,” he recalled.

Faced with this, he insisted on the importance of continuing to promote the pride of miscegenation. “It is difficult today in Venezuela to have a person who does not have a family bond with someone from another part of the world, let alone from Colombia, who we have next door, let alone Ecuador, Peru, anywhere in the world. You always have a bond and we all love each other, and we thank you for everything you have done for our country, but people of African descent and Indians are the ones here,” he illustrated.

A beautiful and free country for our children!

In this context, the Minister for Internal Relations, Justice and Peace called for strengthening the unity of Venezuelans to guarantee peace and reject violence.

“Venezuela is a territory of peace, of love, of happiness, of progress. They will not be able to lead us down the path of violence (...) but the right will never return to destroy the homeland of our children, we will leave our country to our children, a good and beautiful country, free”, he said while warning of the attacks that stateless people will continue to promote.

Full support from the FANB!

Returning to the constitutionality, legality and significance of the binational energy agreement between Venezuela and the United States, he highlighted the support expressed by the Bolivarian National Armed Forces (FANB)

“The Armed Forces came out expressing full support for the agreements signed by the President, total support,” he stressed while drawing attention to the campaign that carries out the longline movement associated with opposition extremism in an effort to generate anxiety and destabilize the unity of the FANB.

“Leopoldo Castillo, this is a message to grab the stage: 'in another era there would have been a roar of sabers today not a meow. ' What is he looking for by pulling at the military? Asking for sabre noise Why? Saber noise, why? Let's see, why? That would certainly support the sabre sound, it would seem. He is not characterized by being a coherent person and at his age, instead of being at home, he starts to write this ridiculousness”, he criticized.
