After the wave of popular protests and discontent following the
announcement of the results of the presidential elections in the
country, “in the last two weeks open and simulated dismissals have been
executed in public institutions and state enterprises” according to a
press statement issued by the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of
Venezuela (PCV):
Workers who have openly declared their rejection of the anti-worker and
anti-popular management of the Government of Nicolás Maduro and who also
have reasonable doubts about the results announced by the National
Electoral Council are threatened and persecuted in their workplaces. ...
We have news of illegal dismissals and forced resignations in PDVSA,
Corpoelec and the health sector.
Nongovernmental organizations have documented more than 1500 detentions
after the elections; among the cases there are 200 women and 129 teenagers.
Regarding the recent Law for the Control, Regularization, Performance
and Financing of Non-Governmental and Related Organizations, the PCV did
not support this project promoted by the United Socialist Party of
Venezuela (PSUV) since it is part of the process of consolidation of the
authoritarian model personified by the government presided by Nicolás
Maduro and his acolytes. This new legal instrument limits the
constitutional provision that obliges the State to facilitate the
exercise of the right of association that every Venezuelan citizen has.
It is true that imperialism has historically promoted its policy of
interference and aggression against the Venezuelan people, using
Non-Governmental Organizations as a façade. It is also true that a large
number of them are the organized social base of important sectors of
civil society.
Many noble causes and activities of the organized civil society will now
be affected by the heavy official bureaucracy of controls, inspection,
fines, supervisions, audits and other normalization processes in charge
of the Ministry of the Interior and Justice.
