00:00Venezuela's National Electoral Council announced that April 27th is the date for the next elections

00:05to renew the country's parliament and governorships.

00:07Our colleague Madeline Garcia with the details.

00:12The electoral power informed that in three months the elections to elect the deputies

00:16to the National Assembly, the regional deputies and the 24 governors of the country will be

00:21held.

00:22However, there is an immovable rule.

00:27All political organizations, their authorities and their participating candidates must sign

00:32a document committing to respect and abide by all events concerning the April 27th election

00:39and the results issued by the National Electoral Council as the constitutional power of the

00:44republic.

00:51It will not be just another election.

00:54The extreme right will be definitively buried, which has already called for abstention.

01:02They already said it does not apply.

01:05That is the term they used.

01:06It does not apply to go to elections.

01:09Well, let them not go, but the people of Venezuela will go.

01:14The people of Venezuela will go.

01:16We must remind that extreme right wing that they have become their own instrument of destruction.

01:22Let us remember how many times they have gone to the file of violence.

01:26Where are those people right now?

01:28Where are they?

01:30The great majority are living comfortably outside of Venezuela with the money they stole.

01:43Those political parties and leaders that have disregarded the past electoral process will

01:47not be able to participate in the two contests scheduled for this year.

01:55Any person who has asked for sanctions, invasions against the homeland, who has even fallen

02:00into the crime of treason, which is in the penal code, will not be able to participate

02:05in the elections.

02:06That is clear, nor will the political organization that has violated these articles, which goes

02:11against all Venezuelans.

02:17The people in the street agree that those who have disregarded democratic institutions

02:21should not participate in order to maintain peace in the country.

02:28They should not participate because they are not with democracy.

02:32They want a civil war.

02:33That is the reality.

02:40We have to accept the elections.

02:42We are in peace and we will continue in peace.

02:45With the elections, everything is fine because we don't want any problems.

02:59Political parties of the democratic opposition confirmed that they will participate in the

03:03two elections scheduled for the renewal of more than 5,000 public positions.
