In a statement, he expressed that he accepts the nomination "Given the decision taken by the people in the territory and that has ratified this V Extraordinary Congress of the PSUV and this IV Extraordinary Congress of the JPSUV."

For his part, Diosdado Cabello stated that Maduro Moros was elected president of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) following 317.187 grassroots assemblies in which 4,240,032 PSUV militants nominated the present president.

During the event, Maduro expressed that he has traveled long and far in the country and found "patriotic people, full of heroism, but above all, full of hope."

Touching on the current defamation campaigns, destabilization, and pressure "against the Bolivarian Revolution," Maduro expressed that there would only be one fate for the nation: "the popular victory on July 28, 2024."

The President denounced sabotage, coups, and mercenary operations and emphasized that people have always won and will continue to do so.

Days ago, PSUV decided that Maduro would be its presidential candidate, Deputy of the National Assembly of Venezuela Diosdado Cabello said.

At the time, Maduro posted on X "We will continue to travel throughout our country in the construction of more and more force and citizen organization to achieve electoral victory this year."

The Venezuelan July 28 elections

Venezuela's presidential election is scheduled for July 28, as announced by the head of the national electoral council on March 5.

Lawmakers aligned with the government, opposition groups, and other entities proposed a range of dates two weeks ago, spanning from April to December.
 
The head of the electoral council, Elvis Amoroso, stated that the council "evaluated the different proposals for a schedule that contemplates all the constitutional, legal and technical requirements," as he read from an official statement.

It is worth noting that July 28 marks the birthday of the late President Hugo Chavez, who served as the mentor and predecessor to President Maduro until his passing in 2013.

In an electoral agreement forged in October, both the government and the opposition decided that the election would occur in the latter half of 2024, with international observers ensuring its transparency. Moreover, as part of the electoral agreement, each faction is set to independently choose its candidate for the upcoming presidential election.
