He emphasized that “the victory of the nation is peace, as a country of peace, but we are prepared to defend it. Venezuela is besieged, constantly threatened, and by constitutional mandate, the men and women of the Army are ordered to defend it in civic-military union.”
These exercises are based on the integration of the Territorial Defense System—Strategic Regions of Integral Defense (REDI), Operational Zones of Integral Defense (ZODI) and Areas of Integral Defense (ADI).
