The president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela,
Nicolás Maduro, stressed this Monday that the country is fighting a strong battle
against fascism, whose actions he compared to those executed during the Franco regime in Spain.
“A million exiles and an atrocious dictatorship that of Francisco
Franco, which lasted 40 years and which sowed the anti-values of hatred, of fascism, of contempt, of colonialism, of racism, in the depth
of a society
that still today - the Spanish one - fights against the ghostly and zombie remnants of Franco's regime, expressed in political groups such as bots that claim
conquest, genocide and colonialism in America and that are the backbone
of the new fascism in Europe,” said the
Head of State.
During the meeting of the Council for the Defense of the Nation and the
Council of State, the Dignitary warned that “today
in Venezuela, under very different conditions, the same battle is taking place, in
peace, with a powerful and strong institutionality, a Popular Power with territorial
capacity to guarantee peace, work and the life of the People.”
He also stressed that the nation has “a
cohesive, patriotic Military Power, willing to fight with the will to fight, with
its own doctrine, with a strategic backbone concept of the defense of the homeland and the transcendental values
of Bolivarian, Christian humanism”, as well as “five solid constitutional
powers in a permanent process of renewal (...) that
have been able to face different circumstances”.
In this regard, he exalted “the strong recovered Legislative Power, the robust Judicial
Power, the unique Electoral Power in the history of our
America, the active citizen Moral Power with initiative, prestige and
legal and constitutional strength; the Executive Power uniting the forces of the nation.”
President Maduro pointed out that 100 years ago “Nazism and fascism were
the demonic reaction of the powerful, privileged people and
empires against what they considered a danger: the ideas of socialism and the consolidation of a new power.
But today, fascism and
neofascism have re-emerged,” he warned.
