Caracas, May 26 (teleSUR-RHC)-- A new recording revealing jailed opposition leaders Leopoldo Lopez and Daniel Ceballos plotting against the government was released on Monday by the state-run VTV.

The revelation comes after both opposition leaders declared themselves on a hunger strike on Saturday. Both are being held in Ramo Verde prison.

The recording shows a conversation between them, planning ahead of the hunger strike. Both leaders discuss the strategy behind the move, which would be to launch a series of protests, including the deployment of snipers, as a replay of the fatal incident of over 14 months ago.

According to the conversation, preparations were already taking place before the video was released, which would include organizing protesters camping outside the United Nations building in Caracas.

The actions would be headed by student movements close to Voluntad Popular – Lopez's party – which would make them look like student-led protests. The plan, as Ceballos explains, would be implemented through precise goals every five days, with the first protest taking place the weekend after their announced huger strike begins.

Lopez confirms that they already have a team coordinating these actions, headed by former Gen. Raul Isaias Baduel and his jailed son Emilio Baduel. Both politicians agree during their conversation to make their strike video go viral in order to drive enough attention to gain momentum. Coincidentally, the video made by Leopoldo Lopez, announcing both men were beginning a hunger strike, was aired by CNN.

Lopez and Ceballos are being held in Ramo Verde after the government charged them with inciting violence during protests which took place in February 2014. The opposition's violent “guarimbas” left 43 civilians dead.
