Acting President Delcy Rodríguez convened a meeting of the Great Patriotic Pole Simón Bolívar following the US military aggression in order to set guidelines for defending the country’s sovereignty and governability.
The Great Patriotic Pole Simón Bolívar is an electoral alliance and popular front of Venezuelan political parties created in 2012. The meeting aimed to define strategies for rescuing President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, after they were illegally abducted on January 3 during the military aggression carried out by US forces.
The meeting, held in the José Félix Ribas Hall of the Teresa Carreño Theater, sought to establish clear objectives for the defense of peace and national sovereignty. During the session, Acting President Rodríguez set out three fundamental directives: the rescue of President Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores from the occupying forces of the United States; the guarantee of peace throughout the national territory; and the preservation of political governability in the face of current challenges.
The event featured the participation of key government figures, including the President of the National Assembly Jorge Rodríguez and the Minister of the Interior Diosdado Cabello Rondón. Governors, deputies, sectoral vice presidents, and various representatives of the Great Patriotic Pole Simón Bolívar were also in attendance.
Rodríguez highlighted the role of social movements and the bravery of Venezuelan women, drawing inspiration from the patriots Apacuana and Luisa Cáceres de Arismendi. She emphasized that Cilia Flores stands as a contemporary example by accompanying the head of state through the abduction.
The acting president called for monolithic unity to ensure the continuity of the Bolivarian Revolution. She emphasized the importance of continuing in the implementation of the Homeland Plan and the 7 Transformations (7Ts), guaranteeing national production through the engines of the Bolivarian Economic Agenda as pillars of the country’s stability.
To conclude the meeting, the political forces that make up Venezuela’s Bolivarian Revolution took out a solemn oath of patriotic commitment. They reaffirmed their unwavering dedication to fulfilling the assigned tasks: the rescue of the head of state and his wife, the preservation of national peace, and the absolute defense of the Republic’s governability and sovereignty.
