Maduro inaugurated the constituent and opened a new chapter in the history of Venezuela
The first working session of the new assembly was scheduled for Saturday. Chaired by the former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Delcy Rodrigues, the Constituent Assembly will "clean" the Magna Carta Chavista of "everything that prevented its materialization"
With the inauguration of the National Constituent Assembly, Venezuela begins to write a new chapter of its "heroic history of freedom and peace," said President Nicolás Maduro, who ignored the calls for the suspension of the process from the Vatican, Promises of active resistance from the internal opposition and threats of sanctions from the international community, gave the 538 delegates elected last Sunday to rewrite the country's Magna Carta.
The plenipotentiary assembly nominated by the regime consists of 545 members - the seven delegates who have not yet taken possession will be chosen on August 13, when the election is repeated in the two municipalities, one in the state of Mérida and the other in Táchira, where the protests prevented To vote. As in the rest of the country, the bulletins will be only the names of representatives of the government or supporters of the regime: when he explained the rules for the composition of the new organ, which will have all power in Venezuela, Maduro stressed that it was a " Chavista, citizen, popular and hardworking ", and not a" constituent of parties and elites "
"We are the heroic Venezuela that has defeated empires, the homeland of liberators: once again we will build our destiny ourselves. Independence or nothing, "published the President in his Twitter account, in an illustrated message with the portraits of Simón Bolívar, the Liberator, the aristocratic military who commanded the insurrection against the Spanish crown and achieved the independence of the country in 1810; Ezequiel Zamora, the winner of the bloody civil war of 1859-63 that consecrated federalism; And "El Comandante" Hugo Chávez, his predecessor and political mentor, who died in 2013.
The portraits of the three national heroes were again hung on the walls of the Federal Legislative Palace, from where they had been withdrawn after the opposition election victory, a mixture of political parties and movements grouped together in the Democratic Unity Table coalition, which in December of The PSUV and became a majority in parliament.
Hours before the opening of the inaugural session of the National Assembly, President of the National Assembly, Julio Borges, denounced the forcible takeover of the building by the Bolivarian National Guard forces. "Although the Elliptical Hall belongs to the executive, we reject that it is violated for the materialization of a fraud," he stressed, "the largest and most illegal fraud committed in the country's contemporary history," he added with emphasis. The opposition guarantees that it will not give up its space in the historic palace built in the nineteenth century - but if it is prevented by the regime to work in the Chamber, it will hold its sessions "anywhere in the country."
WITHOUT RECOGNITION
In addition to the majority of MUD in the National Assembly, the governments of the region - Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama, Peru - the United States, the European Union, the United Nations and dozens of nongovernmental organizations have refused to recognize The legal and political legitimacy of the Venezuelan constituent. The electoral fraud allegations made by the opposition on Sunday of the vote were confirmed on Wednesday by the management of the multinational Smartmatic, which is responsible for the electronic voting system. Without giving great explanations, the company accused the electoral authorities of manipulating the results, inflating the number of voters by at least one million.
Based on this information, the Attorney General's Office - headed by Chavista Luisa Ortega, who became the most disgruntled voice for Maduro within the regime - opened an investigation to investigate the procedures of the National Electoral Council, and delivered a precautionary measure to prevent The taking of possession of the constituent, "taking into account the presumed commission of crimes during the electoral process".
Also the Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, called for "the suspension of ongoing initiatives as the new constituent, which fosters the climate of tension and confrontation and mortgages the future", and called for "all political actors, particularly Of the Government, to ensure full respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, as well as the current Constitution. "
HISTORICAL CONFLICT
It was, moreover, with the reading of the Constitution approved in 1999, after the inauguration of Hugo Chávez, that officially started the work of the new assembly. The self-proclaimed accidental secretary of the constituency, Victor Clark, explained that it would function exactly with the same statute of the 1999 assembly that produced the Magna Carta after three months. The first working session was scheduled for Saturday at 10am local time.
The tribune was later occupied by Diosdado Cabello, number two of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela and representative of the hard military line of Chavez, who after noting that "only the enemies of peace, who embrace violence and terrorism, do not Want this House, "presented the proposal to the board of directors approved unanimously. The former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Delcy Rodrigues, "a true revolutionary," according to Cabello, will be the president of the constituent; The vice presidents will be Aristóbulo Istúriz Almeida and Isaías Rodríguez. "This is the team for the big decisions," he says, pointing to Secretary Fidel Vázquez, "a soldier, a warrior, who works a little caladito, a good man."
