I feel that the Venezuelan society is changing—not now—since a couple of years ago. It's changing. Normally you want a change immediately, but we have to understand that society needs time to digest changes. I don't have any doubt, and I'm fully confident that we are in the middle of a change right now. We as political leaders are pushing for a change in Venezuela using one of the mechanisms that we have in our constitution. We have a presidential system, which is very rigid and complex, but we still have certain mechanisms that we want to implement in order to look for a democratic way out of this crisis. When? We don't know, but I don't have any doubt that we are now in the middle of a change. The majority of Venezuela, at this moment, is looking for something different.
