“We are facing the challenge of betting on the recovery of Venezuela. No one can be indifferent to the situation of millions of our compatriots, a poverty that expands while inflation persists and the currency loses real value, health and education services in regression that accentuate inequality, decadent water and electricity services that damage the daily life and prevent economic growth, families separated by mass emigration even at the risk of their own existence,” he began by saying and added that from the PUD “We are committed to a Venezuela for allwhere no one feels afraid of being persecuted for their ideas”, highlighting that “We are committed to carrying out a transition in which the freedom of political prisoners is guaranteed, the return of exiles (…) and the adaptation of public powers so that their independence prevails.
