VZ dictator urges college students form militias in support of his government: "Study and Rifle"

Maduro: We are going to prepare the university militias, so that the youth can defend the country with weapons



translated from Spanish

President Nicolás Maduro emphasized, during a national radio and television station, his interest in forming the "university militias" to support his government in the face of an "imperialist aggression".

"We are going to prepare ourselves in the university militias," said Maduro in a meeting with high school students, minors.

"Study and rifle, so that the university youth defend with arms in the hands of the country, if necessary, of the oligarchy, of imperialism," added the Executive.

Maduro swore in young students who were "democratically" elected to lead the Federation of Middle School Students (Feveem).

He reiterated on several occasions that "middle education has power in Venezuela".
