The situation we live in today demands catch up. We are no longer going through a difficult, complex or emergency situation we face a situation of war. A multidimensional war is not new, it's quite true, but it has escalated to a new level and is becoming more explicit.
In this regard, all those who have denied the existence of an economic war are now forced to revise its analysis and surrender to the evidence.
But they are also obliged to do so who, discursively accepting its existence, practical actions to limit the instrumentalization of conventional measures.
Wartime measures require war.
And practice shows that giving in to the blackmail of economic powers, has never been a guarantee of stability and protection of democracy dissimilar experiences, but parallel, between Greece and Syriza, Gaddafi's Libya and Brazil Dilma serve as evidence.
Cases of Venezuela in 2002-2003 with the coup and the oil-trade blockade, the Syrian of Bashard Al Assad, and again in our country between April and July this 2017 show, however, only the active mobilization and not give up the initiative are the only guarantees of victory.
It is not superfluous to keep in mind, as President Maduro himself correctly he noted that sanctions taken by the US government are not directed against the national government, but against the country and the entire population, regardless of the political affiliation of people.
Consequently, the need to take special measures to safeguard sovereignty but also protect citizens and the people prevails.
We repeat: we are not facing an economic crisis, we have a declaration of war by the global economic and political power, economic, financial and commercial war that seeks to "heat the internal climate" in order to create the conditions for a collapse of the country , which ultimately it would be used as an excuse for military intervention.
But at the same time we must be aware that what is now presented as aggression, can also be considered an opportunity.
Thus, as the events of 2002-2003 allowed to achieve sovereignty in the management of oil resources and seal the civic-military alliance, the current situation can become the occasion to achieve monetary and foreign trade sovereignty.
However, none of this will be achieved, as we said, with conventional measures or giving in to blackmail.
Is complex at this juncture define concrete to recommend to the Executive and the ANC on economic measures.
And it is for several reasons, but first and foremost by the lack of current and accurate information on the accounts and national indicators.
On the other hand, we know that there are no magic recipes.
However, based on our experience and analysis that are public and well known, in the best spirit of contributing to national defense, we propose the need to advance at the following address:
In terms of exchange and foreign trade
1. Strengthen exchange controls, suspend foreign exchange allocation to private companies and individuals, and destine them available to direct imports of essential goods State from allied countries.
2. In the case of exceptions to be made to the previous point, after its due and public justification, doing so through financial means, not exchange. That is, rather than sell currencies transnational, you lend it at interest and sufficient collateral currency loan recovery.
3. In any case of foreign exchange allocation, both private and public companies and state agencies thoroughly check the ante and ex post given the same use.
4. Subjecting the allocation of foreign exchange to an international scale of reference prices in order to prevent overpricing of imports and tax evasion through transfer pricing and the subsequent transfer of inflated prices to the cost structures of production, distribution and marketing.
5. Ensure transparency foreign exchange management to prevent corruption and facilitate social control through the detailed publication of all allocations made by CENCOEX, turn cross the customs import data recorded by the SENIAT in ASYCUDA.
6. Create an operating entity, to impose penalties, perhaps improving the design of the planned and not yet implemented Ente Interoperability, controlled directly by Miraflores, linking necessarily real-time all databases organs and agencies of the State, process all information by using information technologies and communication and render intelligence reports on such analyzes.
7. Orientate the oil that is currently sold to the United States towards our Eurasian allies, which could include the form of barter for essential goods.
8. Initiate a process of renegotiation and restructuring of external debt, allied countries and investors.
Pricing and supply
9. Integrated constitute a defense of socio-economic rights of the people who join the Sundee Command, the Superintendencia Anti-Monopoly, the Public Prosecutor, the Ombudsman, the SENIAT, SUDEBAN, FANB and other organs and competent authorities.
10. Failure to recognize or accept the pricing reference marker using the exchange rate in the parallel market for costing.
11. Enact mandatory state monopsony in essential goods, in order to give the State power price negotiation thereof with the monopolists who control the import, production, distribution and marketing.
12. Strengthen mechanisms for direct or scheduled food and other essential goods distribution.
13.- Start, on the basis of and public enterprises, communal economy small and medium, a process favoring import substitution goods and essential supplies for the population.
In the case of Colombia
14. Close the border with Colombia indefinitely.
15. Report to Colombia to the WTO by the application of unfair international trade practices, money laundering and terrorist financing through brokerages border.
16.- denounce before UNASUR for violation of the territoriality of a member country, specifically promote and encourage smuggling extraction and attacks on the national currency.
As for national defense
17.- immediate signing of a military Treaty of Reciprocal Assistance with Allied powers authorized by the plenipotentiary Constituent Assembly
