RE: Ulog #041 | 1/23 from Cumaná
Thank you for sharing your experience, @hlezama I've been following this for a few years now but not all the details have been clear through filtered stories and news. Who to trust?
I wish your people peace and freedom from this regime. Oppression seems to be a global problem right now (or at least more obvious and blatant). Sharing personal stories and documenting events is important to getting the word out and informing others of the truth.
Blessings
Thank you. Can't blame you for not knowing who to trust. We can't figure that out ourselves. It does not help that we have the most trecherous politicians on both sides and that many venezuelans have become experts in creating all kinds of fake news and spreading them in the social networks.
It is very frustrating.
Yesterday, my brother, who is in Perú, asked me how things were here because he had received information that affirmed that the gringoes would invade today. It is noon and they have not invaded yet :)
You have Quevedo, the current president of PDVSA (our oil company) affirming that they increased the production of oil. Most international organizations have stated the opposite, even OPEC, the entity that rules our oil production and exports have listed us as having reduced our production (which has aggravated our situation). Thus, it is easy to decided who to believe in cases like those.
You only have to watch (thank good ness the videos are there for all to see) the statements of minsiters and other government officials to see the level of shamelessness they exhibit. The ministers of Health (we have had more than a 12 in the last 6 years) have repeatedly denied the health crisis. Our health system, according to them is the best. But it is enough to peer into any ER in any hospital in the country and you'll see they are lying. If they can lie about something so grave, which has traslated in the untiely death of hundreds of children, women and elderly people, the sky is the limit to what they can fabricate.
Thank you so much for your expanded commentary on the experience you are having and witnessing. I just saw a video this morning that validates what you are saying to a large degree and also seemed to clear up my confusion on the interim president. Maybe you can watch it and tell me if it is accurate? I will share it far and wide if it is and share your message as well if that is okay.
I think that your messages, video and photographs are reaching a bigger audience now as it is gaining a lot of traction on social media - which is great!
Thank you so much for sharing this video.
It is 100% accurate. That's what happened.
Her exhaustion is my exhaustion. I am so sick and tired of trying to explain the gravity of our situation, I just can't believe some important parts of the world does not get it. Just by listening to or watching any of Maduro's officials should be enough to know what kind of psychos have been running the country.
The most bizarre part of the story, which she does not mention is how the hand-picked supreme court declared the National Assembly illegitimate. In 2015 they annuled the election of 3 representatives from the state of Amazonas (left to right: Romel Guzamana, Nirma Guarulla, and Julio Ygarza; indigenous congressmen, from the sector of the population the chavistas had repeatedly swore to protect and vindicate because the previous governments had abused these poor indians).
The annulment was ilegal, was ruled by the wrong entity, the assembly swore them into office given the fact that they had already been proclaimed as the law dictates 24 hours after being elected. That's how the assembly became illegitimate, according to Maduro's government, because they disobbeyed a mandate from the supreme court.
Well, that was years ago and the Amazon still does not have congressmen representing them. They never solved the dispute of the elections or called for a remake. They knew they'd lose for an ever wider margin.
How can the non-intervention undits ignore this?
The chavistas have become geniuses of evil and quasi-legal manipulations.
