00:01Now we listen to the statements of Dr. Delcy Rodriguez, the acting president of the Bolivarian Revolution in Venezuela.
00:16We recognize long time ago because we have been very close of each and every cause.
00:24I can speak also as a victim and I hear the pain that a mother can feel when she lost
00:36a son.
00:38At the violence 2014-2017, there were officials from the state fighting that violent manifestations.
00:51Something that characterized that manifestation that were not pacific manifestations, demonstrations that were very violent demonstrations.
01:04They used war artifacts and there were officials from the state.
01:14The captain of the Comrade Soraya is an example.
01:23The most terrible expression of hatred, crime of hatred.
01:34And if we take a look back to the history of Venezuela, we will realize that political violence, there have
01:43been several factors that led to it.
01:48The social exclusion, the political exclusion, that those who have projects of delivering the national sovereignty that I call...
02:15We have the balance of the 1960s.
02:20They were dreamers and they had dreams of a country with freedom.
02:26And we had also a political class that had betrayed.
02:28And then we have the January 23rd, that treason became a national project.
02:38A project that had as a main pillar that delivered the handover of Venezuela.
02:53You know what happened?
02:55You know what it means to Venezuela?
02:57To bring vast sectors of Venezuelan society, the poorest, to bring them to the table and they were recognized as
03:07people.
03:08But that doesn't mean that German of hatred, the hatred of classes of racism, discrimination to the people who is
03:24different.
03:26And in the Chavez period, what we live with Commander Chavez, the coup d'etat financed by all the countries,
03:41the absence of the assassination of Commander Chavez.
03:46And those were present also the hatred, class hatred.
03:52The law of hatred was approved on the Constitution, on the Constitution.
04:01That is, that law 6, precisely, in a very complex situation, derived from the January 3rd aggression on January 3rd.
04:22The first thing that I thought was, in this program, this program of coexistence, because the hatred has been so
04:36present in a sector of this country,
04:49this political country, that even asked for foreign intubation.
04:56Thus, since they couldn't handle it with national politics, they asked with missiles and bombs.
05:08that couldn't be resolved by politics, it was asked to a power, a military power, a nuclear power from this
05:17hemisphere to come and solve it in this country.
05:20And I thought, the first thing that we need to heal is the hatred.
05:25Well, there is a group of humans, of diverse programs, that are in the program of democratic coexistence.
05:35This expression of intolerance, of not recognizing the different, that have a different creed, that do not recognize mainly the
05:50right to dignity of that person of diversity.
06:01Do not recognize Olanda in his condition of black people, that do not recognize and respect the other one.
06:14Venezuela needs to heal.
06:18Venezuela needs to heal, needs to heal because this has gone too far.
06:24Venezuela has taken us to solve it in a road that with media powers that sought false against Venezuela,
06:47false information against Venezuela.
06:53Venezuela, that led, that was then later the, kidnapped of President Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Siria Flores.
07:02Let's think that Venezuelan, as Venezuelan, that have come too far.
07:08And think, let's think as Venezuelan, if this is what we want for our country.
07:14And I say, because I wanted to make this meeting, because I wanted to thank you.
07:31The release, the release of oneself, because forgiveness is releasing.
07:38But also what the victims have said, accepting forgiveness.
07:45And I think that is not something that you can have on the law.
07:49I was saying that compromise of a repetition is, if not, if of no repetition, the compromise of this not
08:01happen again,
08:03is a human condition, personal human condition.
08:11I remember because I was minister of communication at that time.
08:17John Walker that was decapitated.
08:21So imagine from where we came.
08:27And we have always give our alert that, that needed to stop.
08:32And the love and sanity of Commander Chavez and the President Maduro,
08:37has always seeks the healing of human, the healing of the nation.
08:50The human being needs to find also forgiveness.
08:54And you can find it in many ways.
08:57Sometimes we think it's justice.
09:00And I said it in my personal view.
09:03Justice never will give our loved ones back.
09:10But we need to say that there is a deficiency in justice for the victims.
09:18And that's why we have activated not only the Amnesty Law,
09:23but also the program of coexistence that has been incorporated to the processes of justice.
09:32And we are assessing the justice for farmers, for the workers of the country, and justice for the victims.
09:40I ask you to be present in the program, to be part of the program actively.
09:50There is this discussion of the Amnesty Law, this commission of the Amnesty Law.
09:56Because justice must be for all and for everyone.
10:00And Venezuela, the Venezuelan state, has been on the social level of aggression and threat,
10:12that the powers as a state and the diverse powers, has also been under threat.
10:23And I ask justice for all Venezuela.
10:30And I said it before.
10:35We need to overcome, because there is a genesis there, in this back, and we need to heal Venezuela.
10:50So truly we can raise the flag of no repetition.
10:57I also get worried, Zoraida.
11:01And I need to thank, because extremism,
11:19I need to thank, and I say the doors of Venezuela, the arms of all Venezuelans are open for those
11:29who want to come back in this process of healing of hatred.
11:35But I also must say, I have knowledge, I have knowledge of some sectors that they are not properly assessing
11:51what is happening in the country.
11:55They are measuring as a political defeat.
12:03January 3rd, Venezuela lost.
12:06All Venezuelans lost on January 3rd.
12:10We all lost.
12:11Nobody won in this country on January 3rd.
12:16And I'm seeing that there are sectors assisting in a not proper way to the law of amnesty.
12:30They already have plans.
12:33And in the right time, I will show them to the country, so that everybody knows who they are, who,
12:43from the United States and Europe, they want to derail this process.
12:48They want to perturb the peace of Venezuela.
12:54And let the people of Venezuela who judge and the people of Venezuela who say what we need to do,
13:01because it's enough.
13:02No repetition.
13:04No repetition.
13:04And I said, and I call to a genuine justice, a true justice, because it's enough.
13:13This process that we are building, each and every one of you, we need to take care of it.
13:20And that's why I thank you, that you participate aptly.
13:27I know how difficult it is.
13:31I have faced it.
13:34I have faced it.
13:37I have faced it to sit with the executioners of my father.
13:47And I have faced the executioners of our heroes of January 3rd.
13:54And we are doing this for Venezuela, for the Venezuelan people, for our young people, because our youth is the
14:03future of our country.
14:05And we need to do it for our sons, our daughters, for the future of Venezuela, because it's the sacred
14:12one.
14:12The most sacred thing we have is sovereignty and independence.
14:18Today is the seventh anniversary of that attempt to undermine sovereignty in the Battle of the Bridges.
14:29They try to enter from the West, also under a false flag on the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela, in the
14:44false flag of the humanitarian crisis, in desperation of the hegemonic powers for the wealth and resources of Venezuela.
14:54And we have a map.
14:56And we have always said, it's diplomacy that will keep us in track.
15:05And it will be economic cooperation and commercial cooperation where we can assess our wealth.
15:20And we will do it with the most important things that we have, that is human wealth.
15:29And if there is somebody who will come and derail the situation of Venezuela, let them find the will, the
15:41unwebbing will of Venezuela people.
15:45Thank you, brother and sister of Venezuela, for your participation.
15:49Thank you, brother and sister of Venezuela, for your participation.
