"The church is open to those who need attention, but we will not be panders," he added.

The Chavist force justified his actions by indicating that two alleged protesters had taken refuge in the church.

In this regard, Moronta stated that the Church would provide badistance to those attacked and requiring special attention: "It is possible that in many of our churches persecuted people can take refuge, our churches have the right to asylum in the whole world".

"The church will maintain its attitude as always, it has been doing it for 20 centuries, it will not stop doing it now," he said.
