The secretary of the National Council for Sovereignty and Peace, Jorge Rodríguez, announced that this Saturday, September 20, the Sectorial Councils of Fishermen and Fishermen for Sovereignty and Peace will be installed on all Venezuelan coasts, as part of a national strategy to strengthen the fishing sector and defend maritime sovereignty in the face of imperial threats.

“We are going to spread out, from the national secretariat, from Margarita to the state of Zulia, along all our sea coasts,” he said during the installation of the State Council for Sovereignty and Peace in the state of La Guaira.

Rodríguez warned that fishing activity faces a real threat as a result of imperial campaigns that seek to destabilize, “one of the sectors that has grown the most in Venezuela since President Hugo Chávez eliminated predatory fishing practices.”

He also denounced that the fishermen of Venezuela and the Caribbean are being the target of fascist aggressions and reaffirmed the need to meet with the fishermen of the region who have always defended the Caribbean as a zone of peace.

“There is nothing more illegal than what has been tried against Venezuela, there is nothing further from the international legal order, nothing could be further from the truth that must prevail among international relations,” he said.

As part of the day, three working groups will be formed to develop concrete initiatives that strengthen the sector.

Among the issues to be addressed, he highlighted the role of social networks that provide elements of freedom and communication to overcome the censorship that empires manage on digital platforms.
