The constituent is the perfect excuse for the fascist oligarchic to promote a coup. Although, Opposition previously called
for a Constituent Assembly, now they confront the Government with more
violence, boycotting Maduro's proposal.
The world's economic situation that collaborated to the
Venezuela's government collapse, also prompted
the opposition to leave the government to intend a change in the country's
economic policy in favor of foreign capital, through a greater privatization of
the oil exploitation busyness. In
other words, they found the easy way to recover from the economic crisis at expense
of greater Venezuelans sacrifices.
Right now,
the politic scene/setting on Venezuela shows on one side, an Opposition, that has
no united front, and therefore it has been incapable of assembling a government proposal; and on the other hand, a
Left that does not see the impending danger of a fascist right arising. Consequently,
the constituent legislators' elections boycott declared by the left, is an
unwise action.
In a
bourgeois democracy, any attempt to advance democratically is limited. Paradoxically
Maduro's constituent despite of being far from a democratic mechanism, provides
the Right with the perfect scenery for a coup, with the support of
international sectors and their governments, to close what is left of
democracy.
The motives
underlining a coup through the attack of the constituent process, are the same that
justified Chavez’s coup in 2002, <that conducted the elaboration of 49
enabling laws and removing PDVSA’s directive>, what it's really on stake is to
control without any restriction, the oil reserves that our country has.
Let as remember Chavez before April 2002, when removing the
PDVSA directive, did not intended workers' control over PDVSA, <a control
that was later effective in 2003, by allowing the reactivation of the company
during The oil lockout>, and even though the removal of that directive,
temporarily cost him the presidency, when he returned to power <thanks to
the mobilization of the people and the support of a sector of the military
forces>, he indulge the coup leaders and restored the old PDVSA directive, which
eventually carry through with the already known Lock out oil tanker, that caused so
much damage to the country's economy. Chávez supposedly a defender of the
country, did not favor the working class, nor the majorities, but instead the parasite
bourgeoisie.
Despite of
the polluted setting of the constituent, we consider that participating is the
revolutionary alternative that we have, the ANC must be seen as an open field,
an opportunity for the sectors of the workers and the communities that struggle
can expressed themselves, who still see a loophole, will surely be alarmed by this
statement, but there is no more significant combat outside the constituent for
now, and within it, there are several fighters who managed to place their input
despite the obstacles. And it's necessary to remark that the possibility of
participating or being an independent voice, separated from the official medium
is of greater consequence to the traditional electoral participation, be they
municipal, governor or presidential.
There has
never been an alternative, where 79 workers could be divided into 9 subsectors,
in addition to pensioners, students, disabled, peasants, communal and
territorial, with all the limitations imposed.
The initiatives
discussed in assemblies, including those presented by Opción Obrera, even
approved on the fighting front, which even led to divisions with opportunistic
sectors, before and during the context of the ANC process, may be the way to a
congress of workers and fighters who debate a program of struggle as an
alternative to a workers' government.
At the
moment, Venezuela is the weakest link of the imperialist chain, on the American
continent, and it has to be taken as it is, it is not a matter of tastes or
desires, or only slogans that are valid but are not the immediate answers, and
as someone said the problem is not only the link but the chain, Venezuela today
politically, as well as Brazil economically, are two crucial points, does not
mean that we divide the economy of politics. But Temer did not use fascist
bands, as today does the Venezuelan Right, to maintain his slogans in fact
favors the advance of fascism in the country.
Is there to
choose?
Maduro
could not think of anything better than to propose a constituent that is
nonsensical, to oppose the MUD, this became the objective to boycott, with
fascist methods, to start a coup, which is in full development, but also the Defense
of nonsense is the mean by which the masses face the fascist coup.
This is the
real, distressing scenario, is not desired, but who is not located, is doing a
lamentable service to the fascist and murderous right. In that sense the
elections to the candidates for the constituent is a crucial step, against the
coup on the right, its failure opens the door to the rise of fascism
Then the
constituent must be turned from the inside and especially from the outside, and
Opción Obrera adds that only a workers' government is the alternative
On the
other hand, with or without the constituent we must turn over the government,
but first we must defeat the advance of fascism. There is no other way, for the
time being.
CONCLUSIONS
The
proposals are classy and concrete. We have no candidates. We do not trust but
fight against the official Chavismo, nor do we subscribe to the PSUV, therefore
we do not create illusions in the workers. And we also fight fascism. Send Evo
to vote in his first election against the advance of the “half-moon”, or defend
Dilma against Temer's coup, send in Syriza against Pasok, or defend Kerensky
against Kornilov. They do not go against raising a socialist and working
alternative. We are not religious
