Maybe the new elected leader of the student Union at Universidad Central de Venezuela (UCV) Stalin Gonzalez should just do like in old times and skip a grade to fill in as leader of the opposition. At least based on what he says, he has a much clearer picture of what is going on that both Government and opposition figures:
On the role they will play given the new muzzle law and the upcoming Higher Education Bill:
“As students we are concerned because protests are being criminalized and the regime is consolidating itself even more. The university has to have an opinion and give it a fight. The Assembly has to open itself to a dialogue, because these laws are going to change the way we live.”
On Chavez and political confrontation:
“It was too political a fight and social aspects were left aside, which is what is important. We don’t have to get rid of Chavez because he is ugly, but because he is a failure. Here we had a power struggle and society was forgotten and that is why the rich are richer and the poor are poorer. They increased fares and nobody said anything and every day the standard of living of Venezuelans deteriorates. That is why the fight has to focus in that area.
Hear! Hear!
