Caracas - Venezuelan sectors are insisting on dialogue as an alternative to the confrontation that seems to favor groups opposed to the government of constitutional president Nicolás Maduro.

Dialogue is the way, said yesterday the renowned jurist who is one of the writers of the Magna Carta, Hermann Escarrá, before the preparations that threaten to break the tense calm that reigns in the country.

'Today the dialogue is necessary, it is necessary to speak, it is necessary to be a little more civilized and understand that the people of Venezuela, the Venezuelan nation, the Venezuelan homeland, is above any group faction,' said the lawyer in stating that 'The judiciary is the guardian of the Constitution, of the constitutional state of law.'

In an interview with Telesur, the jurist mentioned that under this premise the countries, even the presidential ones, are subordinate to the Judicial Branch, reason why the head of State must follow the orders that come from there.

Escarrá's statements come after two rulings issued this week by the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ) in which he ratified that its central task in the constitutional framework is to preserve the rule of law, especially against factors that pretend to ignore the legal system and violate national sovereignty.

The country's highest court, in a ruling Wednesday, said that 'as long as the disrespect and invalidity of the proceedings of the National Assembly persists, this Constitutional Chamber will ensure that the parliamentary powers are exercised directly by this Chamber or by the body available to it, to ensure the rule of law.

The parliamentary opposition is not aware of the Supreme Court ruling that suspends the incorporation in plenary of three candidates for the state of Amazonas, whose proclamation was stopped until investigations for fraud that weigh on his election on December 6, 2015 were over.

Although they are constitutional sentences and the issuing body is the legitimately competent body, opponents and external sectors insist on contempt and manipulate the situation to move towards an internal explosion that justifies an external intervention such as the one sought by the Secretary General of the OAS, Luis Almagro.

Recently, the right-wing majority of the National Assembly approved an agreement that endorses the interventionist maneuver undertaken by Almagro invoking the Inter-American Democratic Charter, which deserved rejection by the government, social groups and large sectors of the country.

This week is coming to an end in an atmosphere of tension, seasoned with calls from opposition groups to ignore the legitimacy of the judiciary as the maximum guarantor of justice in the country.
