Caracas, May 21 (RHC)-- Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro says that on July 28th -- the date of the country's presidential elections -- a powerful message will be sent to the world through the strength that the people of the South American nation will demonstrate.
"With the strength that these people are going to demonstrate, on July 28th we are going to send such a powerful message to the world that we are going to achieve even that miracle, we are going to overcome the sanctions and they will have to lift them," he stated during his program With Maduro +.
The Bolivarian leader recalled that with the unilateral and illegal coercive measures imposed against the country "they put us in a difficult situation and we learned." "Now they will not be able to stop us. Venezuela is going to growth, deployment, development. Venezuela is going big, with its own methods, obtaining the technology we need, creating our innovations and our technology," he assured.
President Maduro also stated that the sanctions will make them "useless elements to put pressure on a people, because these people are not going to surrender, they have not surrendered and they will never surrender."
"We have already achieved the path of deployment, of development, which was the most important of all," he said, adding that the majority of Venezuelans are betting on peace and stability, as well as the growth of a new economic model.
Regarding the dialogue with the extremist sectors of the opposition, Maduro recalled that "we have tried it a thousand times" and ratified its commitment in this way.
President Maduro urged the Venezuelan people not to allow themselves to be “inoculated with hatred, poison and lies. "We are going to join together, to work so that this country continues to undertake for the future, that is my call."
The Venezuelan leader called to build a new communication system that allows overcoming censorship against Venezuela on social networks.
"A new communication system for each moment, an answer; for each problem, a solution, innovation, technology, union; so I have been preaching, repeating, saying, we are going to build our system for this stage. From the streets to the networks, from the networks to the media, from the media to the walls and from there to radio bemba [a common expression for "grapevine"]."
On the other hand, he spoke about the BRICS and commented that Venezuela is on the path to entry as a direct partner. “I hope that at the Moscow Summit and after the great victory that we will win on July 28, we will enter as direct partners of South America in the BRICS. Venezuela is on that path to enter as direct partners and we are going to see that happen,” he said.
He also estimated that they will see the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) advance to become a Confederation of Countries and States of Latin America.

"Today I had a conversation with the interim president of the Islamic Republic of Iran. I conveyed to my brother, Mohammad Mokhber, and to the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khameini, the condolences of our people, the deep feeling of our people of solidarity with the brave and heroic people of Iran, with the family of our friend, our brother President Ebrahim Raisi who left for eternity."
