This Thursday, November 28, the President of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro, reported that the official summons issued by the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ) of Venezuela, has already been delivered to the representatives of the social platform TikTok in Mexico.

On this matter, he said that “we hope that they will come to Venezuela soon to arrive at a legal, constitutional and legal solution to the situation that has been presented by the 'Challengers' or challenges transmitted through this social network.”

The head of state commented that the students of the country's high schools, “sent me a document and they propose several solutions to this issue, that each social network should have an office represented in Venezuela, that they immediately respond to any alert or complaint.”

This was announced during his program “Maduro Live Suddenly”, where he considered the approval of a law in Australia to be very successful, “the first law in the world that prohibits access to social networks for children under 16 years of age. Interesting.”

“I agree with the proposal of the country's students, I believe that all this should be regulated immediately by means of a special law. I ask the Plenipotentiary and Sovereign National Assembly to build a consensus together with the People and young people, so that we can make a good protection law as Australia did,” he stressed.

The first combatant, Cilia Flores de Maduro, also considered the matter important, since “it is worrying the world, in Venezuela, of parents, representatives and the people in general.”

“It doesn't just have to do with the amount of time a child or young person spends on social networks, which isolates them from society itself and from the learning that should be part of the child's direct education,” he said.

The also deputy of the National Assembly (AN), stressed that also “what is received, the content of social networks must be regulated”.

For his part, the Sectorial Vice President of Communication, Culture and Tourism, Freddy Ñáñez, applauded Australia's decision to enact a law that regulates the use of social networks by minors.

“It's just and necessary, there is plenty of scientific evidence of the different damages that social networks cause to society and to children in particular,” he said.

He also specified that they manipulate the way in which individuals behave every day.
