The general secretary of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello, led the customary red awning press conference this Monday, March 10, in which he highlighted the tasks of the militancy ahead of the elections of May 25.

In this regard, he convened the Base Assemblies to be held this coming Saturday, March 15, to nominate candidates for the elections of deputies to the National Assembly, Governors and Legislative Councils. In addition, he referred to the creation of a new movement and a new appointment within the awning.

• “On Saturday, March 15, there will be meetings in the 47,560 communities with the militant comrades of the PSUV, but any colleague from any party of the Great Patriotic Pole can also attend to make their proposal, all Venezuelans over 15 years of age can go.”
• “Make your proposal in a free, transparent, conscious way (...) so that we can have candidates for the AN, Governorates and State Legislative Councils.”
• “The line is that there is no line, go and apply to whoever you want, free of pressure, free of any form of intentionality to favor someone in particular, don't eat coba on anyone, the application is free and without pressure.”
• “We announce the creation of the July 28 Constitutional Reform Movement in homage to Commander Chávez, but also to the great victory won on July 28 in the presidential elections, it will be a wide space of summation, of consensus, for this reform to be approved by the vast majority of Venezuelans.”
• “The Party has appointed Eduardo Piñate as the new secretary of this body. We thank our colleague Fidel Vásquez, thank you for such dedication and we are making changes as we go .”

He also mentioned the case of the Plan Return to the Homeland, following the decision of President Nicolás Maduro to suspend returnee flights from the United States to Venezuela.

• “We said something is wrong here, so we suspend everything (...) it's not our fault (...) and the party supports the president in all of this.”
• “We are not in a hurry here, nobody forces us to do anything (...) we are going to continue; the Plan Back to the Fatherland is not temporary because the United States said we are going to send those who live here, the Plan Back to the Fatherland has been going on since 2018 and more than 920 thousand Venezuelans have returned (...) and soon a flight will come from Bolivia with compatriots”.
• “All we have asked for is respect, we don't meddle in anyone's internal affairs and we hope that no one will meddle in ours.”
• “It's a great campaign against Venezuelans, of demonizing Venezuelans wherever they are in the world and that's where hate campaigns came from, persecution against Venezuelans, here was a detailed review of each of these people who have come from the United States, only 15 (they have an account of justice) and none of them have a link to the Aragua Train.”

In the same way, he mentioned the Venezuelan extreme right that insists on its conspiracy against Venezuela. In addition to the recent provocations by the government of Guyana and ExxonMobil .

• “It's sad how the Venezuelan opposition defends Guyana instead of defending its country. This domestic opposition embodied by (Julio) Borges, those (Leopoldo) López, María Corina (Machado), all of them defend Guyana instead of defending their country, Venezuela. They became clear that they don't love this country.”
• “Now we are going to elections for governors, deputies and the Legislative Council there (Guiana Essequiba). They say they're going to go to the International Court of Justice, let them go. We will rely on popular sovereignty, which is respected in Venezuela. No one is going to impose a recipe on us, to tell us what we can or can't do.”
• “They think we're playing. The Essequibo is ours and is respected; we are not going to allow anyone to usurp it.”
• “The Guyanese army and the servant of ExxonMobil, who are president, have tried to provoke our Armed Forces. They should remember that 200 years can pass in this country when they provoke it and we will not relax . Don't mess with Venezuela because we don't mess with anyone.”
• “There is no leadership there, there is no organization (...) everyone rules and no one obeys, the disaster, the disorder and they (the extreme right) have no leadership, they are leaders of paper, of positions, while they have a position they figure out, if they don't have office they are over”.
• “Now they're going to take their clothes out in the sun, now they're going to say how much money La Sayona stole, because they're all going to fall on them.”

He reaffirmed that despite the attacks and sanctions, the revolutionary forces are still united and, together with the people, they will continue to advance the development of Venezuela.

• “They, without a doubt, aim to harm Venezuela, to our people; we point out that despite the blockade we will succeed.”
• “We continue to move forward and that plan will guide us in overcoming new obstacles. They say that every crisis must create opportunities that realize that we know how to take advantage of those crises and we are not going to get upset. We have shown him that we have resisted fighting and that we are capable of winning.”
• “It is increasingly evident that this Revolution is feminist, that its organized vanguard is patriotic women.”
• “Reflect on the need to remain united in the face of all eventualities, always united. That is the greatest strength of the Bolivarian Revolution.”
