Thousands of Chavistas marched on the streets of Caracas, Tuesday, in support of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro 2017 budget which is set to further press the government’s commitment to poverty reduction.
The budget will reportedly put over 73 percent of 2017’s annual budget into state social programmes in areas such as housing, health, and education.
The move has come under criticism from Venezuela’s right-wing, after it was presented to the constitutional chamber as opposed to the opposition-led National Assembly, following a ruling from the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ).
