Raul Bravo, president of the Social Christian party Copei in Bolivar State, made an appeal for reflection by the national government, with the aim to be an effective response to the problems faced by over 30 thousand miners and their families, in our institution federal. In that sense, the leader Copei, said that it is not possible that miners have to go out and claim their rights, "when the socialist government, headed by President Hugo Chávez, they failed with the conversion misnamed mining. The miners have a long period of over three years, waiting for unfulfilled promises of the national government, and when they come out to warm up the streets with their protests and just demands, emerging as spokesmen qualified Mibam Minister, Rodolfo Sanz, to qualify for guarimberos, "he said.
Raul Bravo maintained that it is incongruous by the national government, offer a warm wipe the miners of Bolivar state, referring to the aforementioned humanitarian aid, adding that "it is not possible that after three years, aiming to offer the miners aid 20 million bolivars, money that obviously were dashed, immediately, which will further strengthen a strong climate of social unrest in our state, "he said.

"This group of over 30 thousand miners of the state of Bolivar, who were evicted from their camps or work areas of their lives, are experiencing a situation of IDPs with a picture of misery and hunger, as it has no other livelihood life. The national government should seek an effective response to a plan or project that contains offers of sustainable jobs for workers in small-scale mining, "said Raul Bravo.

Finally, the chairman of the Social Christian party Copei, said that another of the contradictions of the socialist government of Hugo Chávez, is the fact that "while maintaining cornered a small-scale miners from Bolivar state, is given the great capitals of transnational companies Mining from China, Russia and Argentina.
