On Thursday, various sectors of Venezuelan youth mobilized in Caracas to demand the immediate release of President Nicolas Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores, who were seized by U.S. forces on Jan. 3.

The mobilization assembled near the student residences facing Venezuela Square. From this area, a bloc comprising the Great Mission Venezuela Youth, communal movements, and political teams marched toward downtown.

“The golden generation’s voice will be heard before the world. We will not allow foreign interests to shatter the dreams of a people who decided to be free. United, we defend the legacy of Commander Chavez and the future of the homeland,” said Nahum Fernandez, mobilization secretary of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV).

The socialist youth described actions by the Donald Trump administration as an affront to the self-determination of peoples. Their march also aims to denounce the violation of international law perpetrated by the U.S. military attack on Venezuelan territory.
