The opposition leader of Venezuela Maria Corina Machado confirmed this Tuesday that he will come out of hiding and attend the demonstration he called for January 9, one day before the presidential inauguration, which both the ruling party Nicolas Maduro like the opponent Edmundo González Urrutia They promise to take over.

“For nothing in the world I would miss that day. This is a historic day, this is a day in which all Venezuelans want to be part“said the former deputy in a virtual press conference, in which she insisted on the vindication of González Urrutia’s victory in the presidential elections on July 28, despite the fact that the National Electoral Council (CNE) gave victory to Maduro, a result rejected by anti-Chavismo and a large part of the international community.

The appointment, to which he called “all (including) children, young people and, very importantly, grandmothers”, it is at 10 in the morning in all cities and towns of Venezuela and, in the rest of the world, each country according to its local time.

He asked attendees to come with t-shirts with the colors of the flag, yellow, blue or red, “let everyone choose the color they want”.

Machado announced the call last Sunday, when he assured that “day will be recorded in history as the day Venezuela said enough. Enough of holding on, enough of being silent. It is our land, our flag. Freedom is not begged, it is fought and conquered”.

He insisted on the need to go out into the streets “full of confidence“because,” he stressed, “Maduro is not going to leave alone, we must make him leave with the strength of a people that never gives up”.

The protest was announced by the opposition one day before Chavismo reported that it would also demonstrate in the streets of Caracasas an activity prior to Maduro’s swearing-in.
