‎Durante a meeting that brought together various political forces from the state of Miranda, the governor of the entity, Elio Serrano Carpio, led the public consultation on the Amnesty Law for Democratic Coexistence this Wednesday.
‎
‎Al debate, representatives of the National Assembly, regional legislators, mayors and mayors of different political tendencies joined in order to strengthen the legal instrument.
‎
‎El regional president emphasized that this initiative is not a gesture of weakness, but rather a constitutional tool to achieve peace, considering that it is a historic need to overcome the cycles of confrontation that have affected the country.
‎
‎ “We are here as responsible for the destiny of a people. When the future is at stake, politics ceases to be competition and becomes moral responsibility. Politics must be elevated to conduct reconciliation processes,” said Serrano.
‎
‎El governor stressed that the Constitution defines Venezuela as a State of justice, where pluralism is not a concession, but an essence.
‎Recalcó that reconciliation does not mean impunity, clarifying that crimes against life, humanity or sovereignty cannot be subject to amnesty, because peace must rest on the basis of law.
‎Durante his speech recalled the episodes of political violence of previous years, stressing that the law seeks to prevent hate from being a tool of partisan action, although he clarified that crimes against life and sovereignty cannot be analyzed.
‎
‎Serrano Carpio called for rejecting hate as a political tool, recalling the events of violence since 2013 that left victims in the entity. He assured that the objective is to inherit to new generations a nation where no one is persecuted for their thinking and where diversity is seen as a democratic strength.
‎
‎El regional leader highlighted that this initiative, promoted by the national Legislature, represents the capacity of Venezuelans to resolve differences with sovereignty. “Reconciling is not a substitute for justice, it is harmonizing coexistence so that the debate is an exercise of peace and not a reason for social rupture,” he concluded.
‎
‎En the debate was attended by opposition mayors such as Gustavo Duque (Chacao) and Darwin González (Baruta).
‎
‎Duque urged that the process be a true reconciliation that listens to the victims, while advocating true reconciliation that recognizes the mistakes of all parties and avoids the radicalism that prevents progress.
‎Mientras that González pointed out that this law could mark the “new social pact of Venezuelans” and requested that all sectors be heard, including the families of the detainees and professional associations. He proposed that this be the beginning of a “new social pact” that includes unions such as the Association of Journalists, advocating an end to censorship.
‎
‎El forum concluded with the commitment to process all proposals through digital channels and working tables.
