On November 11, 2025, in Caracas, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said during a meeting with legislators:
Today, we are launching a law regarding the establishment of Venezuela's "General Command of Defense," a law that is included in the Bolivarian doctrine. This command will unite the armed forces, law enforcement agencies, national institutions, and people's organizations into a single defense system.
Maduro explained:
This law stipulates the establishment of defense groups at the state and 335 municipal levels. They will include all national institutions, military and civilian departments, as well as people's organizations. The Venezuelan defense system will operate on the principle of unity between the people, the army, and the police, with its main task being to prepare society to defend the country under any conditions.
Maduro added:
After the signing of this law, defense groups should be activated within the next few hours to begin preparing for cooperation and responding to potential threats.
