On behalf of the opposition bench, deputy Luis Augusto Romero presented an alternative to the Board of Directors of the Assembly and pointed out that this “democratic opposition” two years ago assumed the great responsibility of deactivating the device of violence mounted against the country.

This is an opposition that does not receive orders from any capital in the world, from any foreign interest, he stressed.

In his concluding speech, Rodríguez recalled the violence, hatred and aggressive actions that they tried to impose on the people of Venezuela, as well as the moral, ethical and human devastation of those who twisted the sacred mission of defending the people in this parliament. .
