Guaidó: Who made the decision to imprison Roberto Marrero "committed another awkwardness"
2019-03-22
[ELUNIVERSAL] The president of the National Assembly, Juan Guaidó, said that the arrest of his chief of office, Roberto Marrero, "does not change the route or the will of the people," to ensure that "we have prepared for this moment after the imprisonment of Leopoldo "(López) in 2014.

The lawyer Roberto Marrero was arrested by officials of Sebin early today at his home in Los Naranjos in Las Mercedes, municipality of Baruta, after a raid took place at his home and in the deputy Sergio Vergara, in the same town.

From the center Don Bosco, Guaidó warned officials that "there are direct consequences of executing unconstitutional orders and their leaders have already called to exculpate, know it."

On a presumed escalation by the Government to imprison him, Guaidó said that President Nicolás Maduro "does not dare or does not command" among the police component, to reiterate that "the chain of command is broken".

"Either he does not dare to imprison me or he just does not send and unjustly kidnapped Marrero, who, besides being part of my team, is a friend," he said, to then maintain that "there are no elements to stop Marrero."

"It is even ridiculous the mechanism to stop, laugh in the world. They are so coarse that they probably used the same weapons that they sowed to Gilber (Caro, arrested in 2017) (...) As they can not take prisoner to the president in charge, they look for the near ones to threaten. Whatever happens, as Marrero said, we move forward, "he said.

Guaidó said that the one who made the decision to imprison Roberto Marrero "committed another awkwardness" and commented that although the government seeks to "intimidate and generate the perception to go for everyone," they can not do it because, in their opinion, "it does not have the capacity "

"What will they go for me? Go ahead. The route is marked. Which is the message? Afraid? It's okay. Go ahead. Trust does not only come from knowing that we have citizenship, that we have the support of more than 60 nations, that we are covered by the Constitution; but the certainty that we are doing the right thing to save lives, " said the sworn in president in charge of Venezuela.
