During episode number 4 of President Nicolás Maduro's podcast, revolutionary leader Diosdado Cabello recalled that in the midst of the guarimbas of 2014, he risked his life to save that of Leopoldo López when his own fellow opponents intended to assassinate him to set fire to the country and unleash chaos.

In this regard, the head of state recalled that he received a call with reliable information that indicated where “the criminal of Leopoldo López (who was a fugitive from justice) was hidden and that they would also go to assassinate him because that would be the spark that would ignite the country”.

“When I heard the information, I identified the voice: it was Antonio Ledezma and I immediately called Diosdado and asked him to go and talk to Leopoldo López's family, to show them the evidence and to go to justice to save his life,” recalled President Maduro.

In this regard, Cabello indicated that at that time he went out to López's family's house and explained that his life was in danger.

“López's wife contacted him and his delivery was agreed. They were left behind to save him. I risked my life to pass in the middle of an opposition demonstration to get to his family's house and there they didn't even comply and because of the show they decided otherwise,” he revealed.
