Diosdado Cabello has guaranteed that Chavismo “will give a lesson in sovereignty to the opposition and the American empire” in the parliamentary elections on 6 December.
“We will teach the empire a lesson during the elections, we will show that in Venezuela it is the people who elect the National Assembly, which elects the President of the Republic,” he said.
Diosdado Cabello, said to be the second strongest man in Chavismo, spoke during a campaign in the Venezuelan state of Bolívar (southeast of Caracas), during which he stressed that the new deputies “will continue work to consolidate the policies for people “.
Cabello, who is also president of the Constituent Assembly (AC, made up exclusively of regime supporters), urged Venezuelans to vote en masse in parliamentary elections, “for any of the parties that make up the revolutionary alliance”.
According to a video released by the Venezuelan press, Diosdado Cabello also said that “there will be no food for those who do not vote” in the parliamentary elections on Sunday.
“You have to vote. Of course, and those who don’t vote don’t eat, for those who don’t vote there is no food. Those who do not vote, do not eat, we apply a quarantine there, without eating, ”he said.
The Venezuelan opposition has already responded and accuses the vice president of the PSUV of “threatening the population”.
“Maduro’s dictatorship is left with only the threat to mobilize the fraud of December 6 (elections). Cabello says there’s no food for those who don’t vote, but there hasn’t been food for a long time. More than 9 million Venezuelans suffer from food insecurity as a result of the crisis you have created, ”MP Carlos Vecchio wrote on his Twitter account.
In another message, accompanied by a photo of elderly people eating soup, the opponent also says that “more than 5 million Venezuelans have emigrated in search of food and resources outside Venezuela because you have devastated everything”.
“We are not even talking about child malnutrition and dollarization (billposting of product prices in dollars) in reality of the economy that is worsening the situation,” he stressed.
The Venezuelan press claims that even if “the Observatory against fraud has existed for a few days”, it has denounced that the Chavista candidates use boxes of food at subsidized prices “to campaign and collect votes in 55.60% of the country’s municipalities.
Also that a report released in 2019 by the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Michelle Bachelet, warns that “with the worsening of the economic crisis, the authorities have begun to use social programs in a discriminatory manner, for political and as an instrument of social control “.
