Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has kicked off the
2021 judicial year, highlighting the power and resistance of the
country's Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ) in the face of foreign
aggressions.
"Venezuela has a powerful judicial system," better
than any other republican period, Xinhua news agency quoted the
President as saying at the headquarters of the TSJ here on Friday.
"Facing
the onslaught of imperialist aggression, there has also been a national
state in active resistance," Maduro said, pointing out that Venezuela
is stronger at a constitutional level today.
TSJ President Maikel
Moreno called on the legislative branch "to propose urgent reforms for
the transformation of the substantive and procedural law systems, to
make them simpler and more functional".
Among the regulations the
TSJ proposes to reform are the Criminal Code, the Civil Code, the
special laws inherent to the fight against terrorism and organised
crime, the Organic Law on Drugs and the Anti-Corruption Law, Moreno
said.
Moreover, he promised to bring to justice "those who tried
to use the legislative branch to destroy the Republic and take over the
country; they must be punished in accordance with the law".
