Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro announced that the nation was successful in thwarting a coup, standing firmly against fascism and violence across the country.

In his address to supporters on Sunday, President Maduro noted that the day saw massive gatherings in more than 100 cities across Venezuela, emphasizing that the people are fully aware of what they are defending. He stressed that they are standing up for their homeland and their right to a secure present and future.

He highlighted that his country achieved three major victories in a single day: The first against influential figures in Miami (Florida), the second against opposition figure Edmundo González, who is reportedly preparing to flee Venezuela, and the third against opposition leader María Corina Machado.

The Venezuelan president reaffirmed his respect for the moderate democratic opposition, which, he noted, did not endorse the actions of the "fascist opponents". He emphasized that paid social media influencers backing the opposition are disconnected from the people, lack popular support, and have no connection to the national cause.

Maduro reached out to those who supported the opposition but were misled, saying, “Let us unite. I extend my hand to you so we can work together and build a prosperous Venezuela.”

He also urged the Bolivarian and Chavista supporters to "continue strengthening our movement at the grassroots level."

Earlier, Maduro told Al Mayadeen that the far-right in Venezuela is supported and funded by global Zionism, adding that the Zionist influence in the media and social media is behind the attempted coup in Venezuela.

Maduro said on August 4, 2024, that his victory in the country's presidential election on July 28 is the greatest proof of what a people can do for their independence, dignity, and future.

He stressed that Venezuela will always stand with Palestine and condemned what he described as "the worst genocide since Hitler," which is being committed against the people of Gaza and Palestine.
