In the above-mentioned agreement, read by the president of the Electoral Power, Elvis Amoroso, the candidates for the Head of State undertook, among other things, to recognize the CNE as the only legitimate and competent authority for holding the elections of 28-J.

They also agreed to validate the results issued by the CNE, respecting the perfect expression of popular will through suffrage and in accordance with the provisions of the Barbados agreements.

They also agreed to stay away from acts of violence and destabilization that threaten the country. They also demand that the countries of the world respect the sovereignty and self-determination of Venezuela.

“They commit to fulfilling their duty to honor and defend the Homeland, while demanding the absolute lifting of the unilateral coercive measures imposed on the noble people of Venezuela,” the agreement reads.
