Venezuela: Marchers support constitution talks

VENEZUELANS marched in support of their country’s constitutional reform process yesterday as ministers met business and religious leaders.

The demonstration was called in support of President Nicolas Maduro’s proposal to convene a national constituent assembly in a bid to end weeks of deadly riots.

The Venezuelan Federation of Chambers of Commerce (Fedecamaras) and the Catholic Episcopal Conference of Venezuela were among those invited to the Miraflores presidential palace in Caracas.
