=E2=80=9Cwe cannot say that comrade President Nicol=C3=A1s Maduro is a trai=
tor or has surrendered the Bolivarian, revolutionary, Chavista and socialis=
t project. Moreover, there are sectors that, within the framework of this p=
roject, have certain constructive criticisms about the anti-blockade law. T=
hat is part of the debate. But our analysis has to be objective, taking int=
o account all the spheres that interact in society; that is, our analysis h=
as to be rooted in the reality we live in.
The anti-blockade law is completely legal and legitimate. Certain sectors h=
ave tried to install a manipulative discussion to divide and confuse the pe=
ople.=E2=80=9D
=E2=80=9CMoreover, the anti-blockade law will allow us to strengthen the st=

objective of defending the economy, social wellbeing and the right to integ=
ral development, with the aim of overcoming the unilateral coercive, restri=

now is continue promoting a big debate between all Venezuelans about the e=

capacities, reach, limitations and controls it is subject to.=E2=80=9D
