Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro commented on Monday on the intense psychological warfare that the country has been experiencing in recent months, amid the multifaceted aggression carried out by the United States government, led by Donald Trump.
The president said in his speech: “We have lived through 22 weeks of aggression that can be described as psychological terrorism.”
The Head of State delivered his speech from the Miraflores Complex in Caracas, where he received orders from the Bolivarian Integrated Groups, after a massive march that took place during his inauguration.
“Peace and national unity prevail in Venezuela,” the president highlighted the situation in the country on Monday, December 1.
He stressed that “the people are organized and ready to continue achieving peace and building the nation” during the march that called for community leaders to be sworn in, an initiative that ended in a large crowd in the streets of Caracas.
The president stated that there were 22 weeks in which people also rallied, “and people went to the barracks,” where new militia men and women were recruited, “because when people can, the country grows.”
During this period, popular, military and police exercises were conducted that “put Venezuela at a level of comprehensive defense capability that we had not had before,” with the aim of defending sovereignty and ensuring stability for future generations.
The mobilization that filled the streets of Caracas was attended by many Venezuelan leaders and governors.
Maduro stated that US threats were unable to keep Venezuela out of the way: “They will never get us out of the way of building the strong homeland that these people deserve.”

People responded with chants saying that they did not want to be a colony and that they “want to be a power in Latin America.”
These statements come after US President Donald Trump announced, on Saturday, November 29, the closure of airspace over Venezuela, using the fight against drug trafficking as a pretext.
