Leaders and members of Acción Democrática (AD) in Barcelona, Venezuela, commemorated the party’s 85th anniversary and called for presidential elections.
The group held a religious service at the Ermita del Carmen church in the Simón Bolívar municipality of Anzoátegui state, where they also prayed for victims of the June 24 earthquake. Representatives from other organizations within the Plataforma Unitaria Democrática (PUD) joined the event.
Manuel Rocca, AD’s organizational secretary for Anzoátegui, used the occasion to demand a new National Electoral Council (CNE) to oversee free and fair presidential elections. He also asked authorities to release all political prisoners. Rocca stated that presidential elections would help reconcile Venezuelans and encourage citizens who left the country to return. AD plans to continue organizing and spreading its message of unity throughout Venezuelan communities through its Committees of Action and Social Policy.
The party acknowledged the resilience of the Venezuelan people and pledged to continue working for the country’s future.
