“They (the opposition) seek to go to the (National) Assembly not to pass laws, but to stage a coup d’état such as in Honduras. Those are the guidelines issued by the US empire. They are hiding their cards,” the Venezuelan president said
Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez said on Tuesday that he would radicalize his Bolivarian revolution in his way "towards socialism," following a possible victory of the ruling United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), in September parliamentary vote.
"Our game is to radicalize the revolution. We will win on September 26 and we will further deepen and radicalize the revolution in our way towards socialism," Chávez said during a rally in Maracay, state of Aragua.
The Venezuelan president said that dissenting parties want to have deputies in the National Assembly to destabilize the government and stage a coup d'état "such as in Honduras."
Chávez voiced confidence that the PSUV would win more than two thirds of the 165 seats in the National Assembly, but he warned his candidates not to feel unbeatable.
