TIL Desk/World/Carcas/ Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro will seek another term in next year`s election, Vice President Tareck El Aissami has said.”We already hold 18 (state) governor ships. We already have, and will keep, most of the municipalities.
We already control the National Constituent Assembly and, through God, through the people, we will have the re-election of our brother Nicolas Maduro as president,” El Aissami told supporters of the ruling United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) on Wednesday.
Amid chants of “Maduro, Maduro” from the crowd at a rally in the central state of Aragua ahead of the December 10 municipal elections, the Vice President lashed out at the opposition.
“They embody individualism, hatred, intolerance, sectarianism, treason, corruption, looting, and black-marketeering,” he said, describing all opposition leaders as being cut from the same cloth and as “puppets of (US President) Trump” who take orders from the US Embassy.
