“Let's not get hooked on hate, let's not let ourselves fall into provocations,” said Commander Hugo Chávez during his 350th Aló Presidente program, held on January 31, 2010 at the Miraflores Palace.

During his speech, the Bolivarian leader warned about the tactics of the opposition and called for prudence. “They provoke me every day, every day they are throwing provocations at me, I don't fall into provocations, one must keep up the pace of battle,” he said. He also explained that an advancing army has a fixed course and cannot allow it to be diverted from the central objective.

The Commander called on public media to diversify their programming, overcoming daily political combat to address issues such as health, education and entertainment.

Chávez emphasized the need to respond appropriately to attacks and not lose focus. “Let's look and act with nerves of steel. They are the ones in a hurry. It's like when you're winning the game, a safe hand doesn't get stuck,” he concluded.
