00:00The 5th Congress of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela, PSEV, ended Thursday after an
00:06intense agenda of debates on the upcoming April 27th elections.
00:10For three days, the political organization established the methods for the selection
00:14of candidates to participate in the regional and legislative elections.
00:18More than 21,620,000 citizens are called to elect governors, deputies, the National Assembly
00:25and the regional legislative councils.
00:28Vice-president of the PSEV for Criminal Councils and Communes, Jorge Reza, highlighted the
00:34importance of respecting the popular will expressed through the vote.
00:39That is why President Maduro insists at this moment in which we have managed to stabilize
01:01the ship after all the storms or the worst of the storm, because the storm continues,
01:07that power must be handed over to the people, that we must guarantee the organization of
01:11the people in the territory so that the people can plan, execute, evaluate and be the master
01:16of its own destiny.
01:18As Commander Hugo Chavez used to say during the discussion of the 2007 reform, I remember
01:25in some way he used to tell us we, the president, the ministers, the governors, the mayors who
01:30are your servants are like your contractors.
01:32We shall do what you tell us to do.
01:41The Vice-President of Venezuela, Delsi RodrĂguez, reiterated the importance of the United Socialist
01:46Party of Venezuela as the political arm of Venezuelan society.
02:00We know that, as a party, we are a powerful electoral machinery, but history demands us
02:06to be even beyond being a powerful electoral machinery.
02:10This party must be the political arm of the Venezuelan society, we must be in every space,
02:16in every territory, in every social sector.
02:20Let us be there with our proposals, which is a historical proposal, it is not a daydreamed
02:25proposal.
02:27Commander Hugo Chavez said it, I am going to quote him.
02:31He said on July 11, 2012, he proposed to continue building the socialist system of the 21st
02:38century in Venezuela.
02:40Chavez told us what the program is, democratic, profoundly democratic, transferring more power
02:47to the people, socialism in morals, in love, socialism in politics and in economics.
