The ousted president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, has sent a message to his country, after the earthquakes suffered this past Wednesday in which he points out that: "In this difficult hour the call is for national unity, serenity and love."
The message was sent through a written statement disseminated on his social networks, dated in New York, where Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores remain in a federal prison, accused of narcoterrorism, drug trafficking and use of weapons. In said statement, Maduro emphasizes that: "Beloved people of Venezuela, it is the moment of maximum unity, maximum solidarity and maximum action." He also wanted to add: "Let no one be left alone, let each community take care of its children, its grandparents, its sick and let us all accompany the work of the rescue teams, PNB (police), FANB (army), civil protection, firefighters, workers and volunteers."
Maduro has not stopped there, and asks for "national unity, serenity and concrete love, to help, protect, share, lift and rebuild." "Venezuela has faced great trials, and from this one too we will emerge strong, with faith, discipline and solidarity," he added.
The provisional official balance of Wednesday's earthquakes, of intensity 7.2 and 7.5, is 32 dead and 700 injured. Therefore, the Venezuelan concluded his message by saying: "Our heart and our prayers are with you. May God bless and protect Venezuela!"
