The comprehensive development plan was closely examined and approved by the Venezuelan President during a meeting on Friday with his cabinet, as well as governors and mayors from different communities throughout the country.

The Venezuelan president took advantage of the meeting to denounce recent attacks on the Central university of Venezuela and its students, calling on the competent authorities to launch an investigation into the violent events, perpetrated on Thursday by groups linked to the far-right opposition.

Maduro also reiterated his administration's willingness to engage in meaningful dialogue with the opposition in a bid to find a peaceful solution to weeks of violent political unrest in the country.
