00:00We go live to the National Assembly of Venezuela. Let's listen.
00:05In some cases it was wrong or abusive
00:09and he really assumes it in an autocritic way, in a responsible way.
00:16There are people that consider this law as
00:19political persecution and censorship.
00:23They also highlight that this law
00:28the application of this. The truth partner
00:32is that our country for a really long time was
00:35the scenario of an espiral of political violence
00:40that left 100 wounded.
00:44It was confirmed.
00:47I have some reports of the people's
00:52of the public ministry and other experts
00:56including
00:58international experts about
01:00the ballot
01:02and the hate
01:04in those months between
01:06April and August
01:082027. Let's remember
01:10that there were confrontations
01:12and confrontations
01:14of Protestants
01:16against Protestants
01:18irrational polarization
01:19and a lot of excess from everywhere.
01:21and I asked
01:25this was even normal.
01:28Violence
01:29in the politics is normal.
01:32The answer to all our people
01:34is that it's not normal.
01:36we must eradicate
01:38the hate and violence
01:40of the Venezuelan politics.
01:46That would help
01:49stand here
01:50and judge
01:51the political motivations
01:53from one or the others.
01:55That would be the responsible
01:57and justify the wrong actions
01:59of any institutions
02:01of the state
02:03of any factor of the opposition
02:05that took the responsible
02:07of all inactions.
02:08Our duty, deputies, is to recognize
02:11a problem that we must move on.
02:15beyond the pressures
02:17that will come
02:19from social media
02:20from Al-Qaritha.
02:25Beyond the pressure
02:27is our duty
02:28to make politics
02:30with responsibility
02:32so this country
02:34won't ever be under violence
02:36and hate to politics.
02:39The hate of this course
02:41is an illness that we must heal
02:43as well.
02:44We won't forget
02:46the suffering of the families
02:48that lost their loved ones
02:51and we don't forget
02:55the pain of the people
02:57that were judged
02:58and the police
03:00that were killed
03:01during the parties
03:03or the citizens
03:05that suffered from violence
03:07without being part of any political party
03:19that's not political.
03:23That is barbarism.
03:27Violence affects us all.
03:29Affects the Venezuelan family
03:31where the family members fought
03:34for their political positions
03:36who didn't live there
03:37in their family.
03:38affect the education
03:40and they couldn't
03:43went to classes
03:44during these violent moments
03:46and health patients
03:48couldn't reach their treatments
03:50in the hospitals
03:53and also affect the economy
03:54how many businesses
03:56were destroyed
03:59establishments
04:00during this moment.
04:02our goal is to work
04:04with maturity
04:05to the national reconciliation
04:08prosperity
04:08and social happiness
04:10this is why this project
04:12is looking for a balance
04:14between two positions
04:16that are in tensions
04:18those that are planning
04:20to leave the law
04:22as it is
04:23there are people that are saying it
04:26that is to not know
04:28the new political era
04:31others that propose to
04:34analyze
04:35that is to deny
04:36the real problem
04:38that we have here as a balance
04:40in the politics
04:41that we see
04:44in real intentions
04:47to reappear
04:48on some extreme right-wing political leaders
04:51this project is about

10:30profound
10:32that
10:35human rights

10:39application
10:40as
10:41the
10:42national executive
10:43recognized
10:43us
10:45when we reviewed
10:46this law
10:47we found
10:48the law
10:49had
10:50different
10:51types
10:52of
10:53concepts
10:54on the
10:54hate
10:55terms
10:55that the

10:57took it
10:58and had
10:59a proposal
11:00in the
11:00project
11:01the
11:02proportionals
11:03in the
11:04law
11:06people look
11:07on them
11:07until
11:08twenty years
11:09to think
11:09different
11:09and the
11:10brutal
11:10application
11:11from the
11:13organization
11:15it
11:16is not
11:16enough
11:17to talk
11:17about
11:18peace
11:18and we
11:19must
11:19believe
11:20in it
11:20and work
11:21to reach it
11:22that's why
11:23we believe
11:23that the
11:26advances
11:26that we
11:27had
11:27changes
11:29in the
11:30names
11:31law
11:31to
11:32become
11:33in a
11:34pacific
11:34democratic
11:35the
11:37penalization
11:37of
11:39this
11:39law
11:40and
11:41to make it
11:42a law
11:42for all the
11:42Venezuelans
11:43that even
11:44though our
11:44differences
11:45made it
11:47in
11:47a civil
11:48mechanism
11:49not military
11:50and no
11:51political
11:51solutions
11:55and respecting

12:01law or any
12:01other to
12:02criminalize
12:03the opposition's
12:04thought
12:05or we
12:07ask for the
12:08freedom of
12:09all that
12:10were detain
12:11by the
12:12bad application
12:13of this
12:13law.
12:14With these
12:15changes
12:16sustainable
12:18there is
12:19no
12:20the same
12:21law
