Henry Alviarez, national organization coordinator for Vente Venezuela, has called for the return of electoral cards to intervened political parties and the legalization of his own organization, asserting it is the country's leading political force. Speaking at a Vente Vargas assembly, Alviarez questioned electoral authorities about restrictions on political groups. "Return the parties' electoral cards and legalize Vente Venezuela. What are you afraid of? We are the country's number one party," he declared.

Alviarez also addressed Venezuelan youth, calling them a fundamental pillar for the opposition movement. "We cannot fail because of you. You sustain us, you inspire us," he said during the event, accompanied by regional coordinator Josรฉ Rolรณn. These statements come as Vente Venezuela advocates for electoral conditions that ensure a fair process for all political sectors.

This demand echoes the primary objective of Vente Venezuela's leader, Marรญa Corina Machado. She recently confirmed her intention to run for president when elections are held in Venezuela. Machado expressed her aspiration to participate in open elections and indicated that her return to Venezuela would be coordinated with U.S. authorities, as part of the opposition's efforts to secure a new presidential election.
