Caracas, 30 Mar. AVN.- A total of 5,001,058 signatures against the interventionist decree of the United States against Venezuela has been gathered so far, said on Sunday Jorge Rodriguez, chief of the campaign Obama repeal the executive decree.
“At one o’clock in the morning, we managed to reach more than 5 million signatures for the repeal of the infamous decree, enemy of peace and especially interfering with matters that only concern us as Venezuelans,” he said in telephone contact with state media.
Rodriguez highlighted the permanent mobilization and deployment of the Venezuelan people, especially the members of the rank-and-file battle units Bolivar-Chavez (UBCh), to achieve this figure that represents the patriotic feelings of the nation against the decree in which the government of the United States terms Venezuela an “unusual and extraordinary threat” to the security of their country.
As for the house by house operations conducted throughout the national territory, as part of the signature-gathering campaign, the also mayor of the Libertador Municipality said they have been a resounding success and will remain in the coming days.
“Yesterday we held a videoconference with the 20 governors of the country as well as the protectors of Miranda, Lara, Amazonas states and they reported that there is a deep deployment of UBCh in every house across the territory,” he said.
Rodriguez called those who have not yet signed to use the coming days to do so, considering “that these are days of reflection, meditation, on the occasion of the start of Holy Week.”
“And that some of these reflections will involve the defense of our land: the Venezuelan homeland we must all do,” he urged.
In this regard, he recalled that the collection points remain in all Bolivar squares and in various public spaces of the 135 municipalities in the country, where people can go to participate in this campaign for the defense of democracy and independence of Venezuela.
“The intention we have is to take the president of the United States, Barack Obama, the proof that the people of Venezuela do not want rude interference,” he added.
