A number of political parties including the MUD had announced their candidacies recently, including Popular Will (VP) Cheap Men's Supreme X Nike Air Max 98 White Grey , whose leader Freddy Guevara is under investigation for encouraging "violent acts" during opposition protests.
Other MUD parties including Democratic Action, A New Time, Justice First and Progressive Advance had also said they would prepare candidacies in the seven states confirmed.

Venezuela's Supreme Court (TSJ) on Tuesday found Ramon Muchacho, the opposition mayor of Chacao in the northern state of Miranda, guilty on the charge of civil disobedience and sentenced him to 15 months in prison.
The TSJ's Constitutional Court held an audience of over six hours on the case against Muchacho Cheap Supreme X Nike Air Max 98 Triple Black Men's , who refused to heed orders to clear highways leading to Caracas during violent anti-government protests.
Muchacho is part of a group of opposition mayors being investigated for colluding in blocking public highways with trees and trash for over four months during protests by the opposition MUD.
The blockading of highways has been a common tactic by the MUD, in at least five of Venezuela's 23 state capitals.
The whereabouts of Muchacho are not currently known and he previously failed to appear on two previous court occasions.
The TSJ ordered the Bolivarian Intelligence Service to emit a "red alert" with Interpol for the immediate arrest of Muchacho.
Writing on Twitter, Muchacho said that "the weight of revolutionary injustice has fallen on my shoulders."
"We are being condemned for doing our job, for guaranteeing the legitimate right to peaceful protest and the right of all Venezuelans to exercise their civil and political rights," he later wrote to supporters in an email.
BEIJING, July 15 (Xinhua) -- Some Western media have reported that China may deviate from its non-interference policy due to growing overseas interests Cheap Men's Supreme X Nike Air Max 98 All Black , which will tarnish China's efforts to shoulder due responsibilities commensurate with its economic status.
Such reports are obviously groundless as the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries has been and will always be a cornerstone of China's foreign policy.
In the new era, China has advocated the principle of mutual respect, mutual benefit and win-win cooperation as a new model of global governance.
As China suffered from the bitterness of Western powers interfering in its internal affairs in history, it is more unwilling to see other countries experience the same.
Currently, China remains the biggest contributor of peacekeeping forces among the five UN Security Council permanent members in terms of the number of personnel. More than 30,000 Chinese peacekeepers have served overseas since China began participating in peacekeeping missions in 1990.
In April 2015 Cheap Nike Shox NZ Womens , a Chinese navy frigate helped evacuate foreign nationals stuck in war-torn Yemen, the first time China evacuated foreign nationals from danger zones. In 2013, China sent its first peacekeeping infantry battalion to South Sudan to protect UN personnel and civilians.
The increase of China's involvement in foreign peacekeeping missions corresponds with the growth in the country's national power, and also matches the expectations of the international community for China's greater contribution to global affairs.
"When we have disturbances or unrest in protection of the civilians, they [Chinese peacekeepers] have shown very quick reaction that I appreciate very much," Ellen Magrethe Loej Cheap Nike Shox Womens , then UN Special Representative of the Secretary General and head of the UN Mission in South Sudan, told Xinhua in 2016.
Facts speak louder than words. China has helped Africa build up its ability to sustain its own development and create win-win scenarios. In 2015, China announced that it would roll out 10 major plans to boost cooperation with Africa in areas ranging from industrialization to infrastructure services, with 60 billion U.S. dollars of funding support.
China has made tangible contributions to the betterment of living and working conditions in Africa without attaching any political strings.
Compared with China's assistance to Africa, the continuous turmoil in the Middle East has proved that interference in others' internal affairs brings disasters not only to the region, but also to the West itself.
In recent years Cheap Nike Shox Avenue Mens , China's non-interference policy has helped relax international tensions and build stability around the world. China has played a positive role in solving problems including the Iran nuclear issue and the Israel-Palestine conflict.
China holds that only when relations among countries, big and small, are based on respect for equality, non-interference and sovereignty, will there be peace and harmony in the world.
This was reaffirmed in June, when China and Panama established formal diplomatic relations Cheap Nike Shox OZ D Mens , and the two sides stressed the development of friendly relations will be based on the principles of mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, mutual non-aggression, non-interference in each other's internal affairs, equality, mutual benefit and peaceful coexistence..
