Venezuela Left for Solid
Unity
Progressive Venezuelan
parties of the Patriotic
Alliance are
strengthening strategic
unity to foster the
revolutionary process in
Venezuela.
The groups have common
goals that include
winning the regional
elections on November
23.
After criticism by
Venezuelan President
Hugo Chavez, the
revolutionary forces are
trying to overcome
differences and
presenting unified
candidatures to the
mentioned elections.
"It is necessary to join
all forces to achieve
success nationwide, and
not to make any
concession to the
rightwing," the
president of the
Venezuelan Popular Unity
(UPV), Lina Ron,
affirmed after a meeting
with other party
leaders.
UPV is affiliated to the
Patriotic Alliance,
along with the United
Socialist Party of
Venezuela (PSUV), the
Communist Party, the PPT
(Homeland for All
Party), and the
Electoral Movement of
the People, among
others.
For Chavez, progressive
leaders were unable to
achieve unity last
century, causing
division among the
people. |
