Mutiny in the Bolivarian ranks. Captain in Venezuelan Navy calls for rebellion

Navy corvette captain calls on the FANB for a "rebellion of conscience"
November 13, 2018

translated from Spanish

ND / 13 Nov 2018.- The captain of the Corvette of the Bolivarian Military Navy Miguel Ángel León Correa, in a document published by the web portal Punto de Corte, announced his defection from the Bolivarian Military Army of Venezuela, which he described as penetrated "By a stream of opportunist satraps, who, like vile parasites, have seen in the constant adulation of the current government the most expeditious route to escalate in power and reach positions for which they are not qualified".


The commander of the Navy, Alessandrello Cimadevilla, in July, when he received the direction of the Navy from Nicolás Maduro. The document contains harsh criticism of the Military High Command

Leon Correa, director of the School of Training and Electronics of the Navy, and who sends his official communication to the commander-in-chief of the Bolivarian Navy, Alessandrello Cimadevilla, indicates in this one that adheres "exhaustively to the article N °350 of the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela in force", and that his decision to defect obeys "my disagreement with the change of institutional position that the Bolivarian National Armed Forces (FANB) had in the Venezuelan State, where we went from being custodians and guardians of the arms of the republic to defend the rights of all its citizens without exception, to become a kind of populist militia dedicated solely and exclusively to defend the interests of a political bias and a revolution that is far from representing the interests of all the people."

The corvette captain says he is aware that his decision, dated November 7, will have negative repercussions for him and his family; notes that "the military high command seemed to have left brainwashed, at best assuming it is involuntary, or have lost consciousness of what is right, or worse still lost dignity and self-respect, leaving buy the conscience with benefits and benefits, putting their personal and family interests above the interests of the Homeland ".
