We, Blanca Rosa Mármol de León and Pablo Aure—acting in the full exercise of our duties and driven by the inescapable commitment to restore the Republic’s constitutional order—address the people of Venezuela and the authorities of the United States of America with the utmost gravity and firmness. We do so to warn of a crude and dishonest geopolitical maneuver intended to block the true path to freedom.
I. Declaration of Absolute Absence and the Origin of the Governing Junta
We hereby inform the public that on July 3, organized civil society—legitimately invoking Article 5 of our Constitution, which explicitly establishes that sovereignty resides inalienably in the people—formally declared the absolute absence of Nicolás Maduro Moros and the de facto government.
In the wake of this power vacuum and the state of absolute ungovernability facing the nation, a national campaign backed by overwhelming popular support has been launched to establish a Governing Junta. The exclusive mission of this provisional body will be to stabilize the Republic and lead the country, as soon as possible, toward free, fair, and sovereign elections, enabling the appointment of a new President and a legitimate National Assembly through the exercise of the vote.
II. Denouncing Geopolitical Betrayal and the Continuation of Dictatorship
It is imperative to speak the unvarnished truth to the Venezuelan people: President Donald Trump’s administration gravely harmed the people of Venezuela and inflicted irreparable damage on our homeland. Instead of supporting the sweeping momentum generated by this national salvation movement’s proposal, it used the might and influence of the United States military to endorse the continuation of the dictatorship that has plunged the country into terror, torture, misery, and fear for 27 years. Supporting the courageous and steadfast institutional path of a governing junta is a patriotic duty.
The de facto imposition and retention in power of figures like Delcy Rodríguez was nothing more than a pact of convenience that favored the executioners over the victims, prolonging a policy of terror against the citizenry. The facts demonstrate that, far from liberating Venezuela, the international strategy led by Trump acted as a lifeline that consolidated the yoke of Chavismo over the people.
III. High Alert Regarding a Crude and Dishonest Political Maneuver
In light of the overwhelming momentum and indisputable success achieved by the governing junta proposal, the architects of failure and foreign interference have launched a desperate campaign. We WARN ALL VENEZOLANS to remain on high alert against a fraudulent maneuver: there is an attempt to resurrect and hand control back to a National Assembly whose constitutional term expired in 2021, in a bid to prop up a fictitious «government» that has no presence on the ground and exists merely as a bureaucratic label backed by the United States.
This international scheme, orchestrated by the political elite, has a single objective: to obstruct the true path to Venezuela’s freedom, torpedo the appointment of the Governing Junta, and prevent citizens from reclaiming their sovereignty through direct suffrage. IV. Final Call to Action: Now or Never
Venezuelan citizens: we cannot allow the historic opportunity to rescue our homeland to be snatched from us once again. The very same sectors that demobilized the people and squandered past victories now seek to keep us shackled to foreign legal fictions so they may continue to profit from the national tragedy.
Supporting the courageous and steadfast institutional path proposed by Dr. Blanca Rosa Mármol de León—aimed at the immediate formation of a Governing Junta—is a patriotic duty. The moment of decision has arrived. It is NOW OR NEVER for Venezuela’s freedom.
In Caracas, on the fourteenth day of July, two thousand and twenty-six.
