Venezuela disobedien­ce

-

VENEZUELA’S opposition, invoking an article in the Bolivarian Constituti­on, said they will refuse to recognise the legitimacy of President Nicolas Maduro and his administra­tion. Claiming that the “regime” and all the measures it has implemente­d so far were unconstitu­tional, the Democratic Unity Roundtable coalition called on supporters to “disobey” the laws.

“The regime is outside of the constituti­on, all its decisions are unconstitu­tional, and they cannot be obeyed in accordance with the article 350 of the constituti­on,” said opposition leader Julio Borges, elected president of the national assembly.
