Ten days before the presidential elections, the president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, continues his campaign journey through the Venezuela Nuestra command through the parish of Petare, in the state of Miranda, where he denounced the plans of the extreme right to fill the country with violence.
He warned that the right wing knows that it is lost and claimed that it knows of all its plans and has denounced them. “They want to do a show, a hecatombe, a tragedy,” he said, while recalling the negative effects left by guarimbas in the Venezuelan people.
In that sense, he stressed that no one will sabotage the presidential elections of July 28, called on Venezuelans to vote early with the 1 10, and specified that the victory of the Great Patriotic Pole will be dedicated to Hugo Chávez Frías.
“Do we want peace? Do we want democracy and true freedom? Do we want to recover the Esequiba Guiana? Do we want an independent country that is not subordinated to the gringos? Let’s win on the 28th,” he said.

Far-Right Opposition Not To Recognize Results From the Venezuelan Electoral Authority
On Thursday, Biagio Pilieri, the spokesperson for the opposition Democratic Unitary Platform (PUD), stated that his organization will only recognize the results of the July 28 presidential elections as recorded by their own documents.
“We will have the records from 30,026 polling stations… We will respect what those records say in a process that must be free, democratic, and transparent. Of course, we will respect what our records say, which is the will of the people of Venezuela,” he said.
As commented by local media, his statement implies that the Venezuelan far-right will not recognize the official results that only the National Electoral Council (CNE) is authorized to issue.
Therefore, if the electoral results do not favor the PUD candidate Edmundo Gonzalez, it is predictable to expect the opposition to launch a media campaign to denounce the existence of an alleged electoral fraud, the Venezuela News agency pointed out.
