01:45this Thursday that the political party he represents will not recognize the results
01:51of the Venezuelan National Electoral Council in the elections of July 28th.
01:57In a press conference, Pilleri detailed that PUTO, which represents the extreme right candidate
02:03Mundo González, will only recognize the votes that are reflected in its own report.
02:09Pilleri assured that his vote represents the will of the Venezuelan people, and that those
02:15reports will say that Mundo González is the president-elect on July 28th.
02:22We are going to have the minutes of the 30,026 polling stations of the more than 15,000 voting
02:33centers, in the more than 1,100 parishes, in the 335 municipalities, and we are going
02:40to respect what those minutes say in a process that has to be free, democratic and transparent
02:47on that day.
02:48Whatever our minutes say, which is the will of the people of Venezuela, of course we are
02:53going to respect it, and we are more sure than ever that those minutes are going to
02:58say that Mundo González is the president-elect on July 28th.
03:03Also in Venezuela, the extreme right manipulates the speech of the candidate for the great
03:08patriotic Paul Nicolás Maduro, when he warned about stabilizing plans to not recognize the
03:14electoral results.
03:15Through social networks, from main sectors and several media outlets have disordered
03:20what Nicolás Maduro said, when he warned about the possibility of a bloodbath in Venezuela
03:25if the extreme right does not win the elections.
03:29What was expressed by the candidate of the great patriotic Paul invites the destabilizing
03:34and decriminating plans of the fascism sector, which seeks to prevent a victory of the candidate
03:41of the great patriotic Paul.

05:22that's why we warn the Venezuelan people to be on alert.
05:27It is the poorest people who raise their voices in support of Nicolás Maduro's candidacy.
05:32They are not willing to lose the social conquests and the project that made them visible.
05:44If the fascist right wing were to deceive the people, there could be a bloodbath and
05:49a civil war in Venezuela because the people won't let their country be taken away from
05:54them.

06:47he carried with him the same message to vote for peace.
06:58On July 28 the future of the next 50 years of Venezuela will be decided, they represent
07:03fascism, hatred, revenge and violence, we represent love and peace.
07:12The socialist and humanist model is at stake, the alternative is neo-liberalism and privatization,
07:18Venezuelans have less than two weeks to make a choice.
