Diego Armando Maradona, the legend of Argentine and world football, on the occasion of the last appointment of the election campaign of the head of state, yesterday assured his strong support for the president of Venezuela Nicolas Maduro.
With a flag of Venezuela, the former Argentina captain who was world champion in 1986 took the stage alongside the outgoing president, in front of thousands of supporters in downtown Caracas, and called himself a Maduro "soldier".
The former Spanish Prime Minister Zapatero and the historic Fiom leader Giorgio Cremaschi also arrived in Caracas with many other guests from many countries, who will play the role of volunteer international observers with many other guests from many countries after the European Union refused to send its own.
The crowd that filled Avenida Bolivar cheered President Maduro who repeated what he said yesterday announcing the will to save the factories of the American food multinational Kellogg's which closed its doors after 56 years. A decision, that of Kellogg's, taken, according to Maduro, to "generate fear".
Maduro, promising that the owners of the company "will pay before the justice" then explained: "Why did they do it today? Because we are four days before the elections and they believe that the people will be frightened. Imperialists, oligarchs, no one frightens this people, because they have a president and a government that protect them ”.
