Resolution against the dictatorship of Nicolas Maduro and in support of Venezuela’s Libertarian Movement
LAS VEGAS (Jan 11, 2019) - Last night the Executive Committee of the Libertarian Party of Nevada voted to pass the following resolution:
Whereas the Libertarian Party of Nevada has previously announced its solidarity with and support for the Libertarian Movement of Venezuela;
Whereas the Libertarian Movement of Venezuela rejects the presidency of Nicolas Maduro as illegitimate and his reelection and inauguration to be equally illegal and illegitimate;
Whereas the Libertarian Movement of Venezuela endorses the National Assembly’s imminent selection of a provisional president for the sole purpose of peacefully forcing Maduro to resign immediately;
Whereas the Libertarian Movement calls on Maduro to renounce the presidency immediately and remove himself from government affairs;
Whereas the Maduro dictatorship has been denounced as illegitimate by the Libertarian parties or movements of Colombia, Ecuador, Argentina, and Chile;
Whereas the Libertarian Party of Nevada would immediately denounce a similar dictatorship and in a similar manner if it ever arose in the United States;
This Tenth day of January, 2019, it is RESOLVED that the Libertarian Party of Nevada and its body of members do not recognize Maduro’s right to the presidency nor the one-party state under the United Socialist Party that claims sovereignty over Venezuela, and we call on Maduro to step down;
Furthermore, it is RESOLVED that the Libertarian Party of Nevada reaffirms its support for the Libertarian Movement of Venezuela, temporarily recognizes Alianza Soy Venezuela as the legitimate representative movement of the Venezuelan people, and will look to the Libertarian Movement to be our guides in which future Venezuelan governments and individual public servants have freedom’s best interests at heart.
