After 10:30 in the morning, the citizens began to gather at agreed points. In the case of Ciudad Guayana there were three: in Unare at the hot corner, La Churuata and the Chilemex roundabout in Puerto Ordaz. The first two rallies moved after noon to the Chilemex roundabout and then everyone headed towards Las Américas Avenue and gathered at the CVG Monument Plaza.
“This is for you, son, I haven’t seen you in 3 years. Freedom,” read a banner held by a woman. Her son is 17 years old and left Venezuela with his father when he was 14. “First they were in Brazil, then they decided to emigrate to the United States, they did it through the jungle, now they live there,” the woman said in tears.
In Upata, Piar Municipality, southern Bolívar State, the repressive forces of Chavismo dispersed the rally with tear gas.
