Nicolás Maduro’s Re-election Campaign and Controversial Russian Parade: Venezuelan Independence Day Event Sparks Criticism

by time news

Nicolás Maduro The priority of the campaign is Re-electioneven more so when the numbers are in his favor in a very high percentage. In one of the most important events for the civil and military world, such as the celebration of the signing of independence, the armed forces were praised, including Russian parade and motorcycle piratesWhich made the parade one of the dullest in its history.

The criticism was immediate, both in the barracks and outside them, as the parade lost the aura of glory that should have characterized it and became known as a circus and political event.

While Nicolás Maduro screams Moros “It is the anti-colonial armed force that was born, as a force, with its weapons, to confront the most powerful empire that ever existed.””, A group of soldiers from the mighty Russia took part in the parade where soldiers and civilians celebrate the independence of Venezuela. There is nothing more paradoxical than what the signing of independence on July 5, 1811 represents.

Message from the President of Venezuela, mentioning Russia, China and Iran, They have nothing anti-imperialist, on the contrary, with their words they pledge independence and the role played by the army at that time. What is unusual is that, surrounded by people who monopolize the Republic’s weapons to defend the nation, its territory and independence, Maduro has sworn that he will not hand over the presidency, that it will remain in “good hands” and that it will not belong to “some oligarchs or puppets.”

It not only paraded Foreign military forces On Venezuela’s independence day, it should be added that Maduro said in a threatening tone, “We have the support of Russia, China and Iran, make no mistake about Venezuela.’”, waving the baton of command, which characterizes the Venezuelan generalship and admiralty.

Any president of the republic who actually legitimately exercises the power of command over the military institution as commander in chief of the armed forces would not need to use that baton. Maduro is demonstrating a desperate attempt to establish himself by force of arms in order to remain in power.

Although it verbally stressed that it has the support of the Russians, in fact some soldiers in that country’s uniform attended a protocol event and Russia has transferred two ships, frigates, to Venezuela. Gorshkov and tankers Academician Pashinthe very small part of the Northern Fleet that went to Cuba does not reflect the support that the Venezuelan president wants to express; neither the nuclear-powered submarine nor the tugboat go to Venezuela.

conversation with a senior official infobaestated that “The message of the Russians participating in the parade is wrong for many reasons, one of them being that Russia is a country that started a war without justification and killed innocent civilians. Comparing it as a friendly country is not the best example,

On the other hand, he says, “In Venezuela, where many of the soldiers have been trained, the July 5 parade is unique to our soldiers and units and ultimately represents the Bolivarian countries, but not foreign powers, which in itself is contrary to the anti-imperialist slogan.”

In his opinion, Nicolás Maduro is wrong, “using a national date, to show his strength through Russia and to name China, especially on the eve of an electoral event, which the opposition, the government and the population in general understandably have to accept, this is a Venezuelan issue,” the army officer concluded.

An aviation official expressed displeasure over the Russian parade on July 5 and its inclusion in it Motopiruetas,It is incomprehensible that there were 46 Russians at the stop; this is a crime on Paseo Los Proceres. It was a shameful act. Could it be that the Russians interfered with Venezuela’s independence and I didn’t know about it?” he asked himself sarcastically.

For a colonel of the Bolivarian National Guard (GNB), “instead of a report, the traditional speech was one of hate and Maduro ended it by threatening the American Empire while the troops of another empire, the Russian Empire, paraded. What a shame!”
