Movimiento Demócrata Liberal

Movimiento Demócrata Liberal (MDL, Liberal Democratic Movement) is a Venezuelan political organisation.

The MDL is promoting autonomy statutes in at least seven Venezuelan states including Tachira, Sucre, Monagas, Bolívar, Anzoátegui, Aragua, and Falcón.[1]

The MDL lists among its international collaborators Silvio Berlusconi's Forza Italia, the extreme-right National Alliance party in Italy, the Republican Party in the United States, the right-wing ARENA party in El Salvador, the pro-Pinochet Independent Democratic Union (UDI) in Chile, and the Popular Party in Spain. Funding organisations include the International Republican Institute (IRI) and the conservative Friedrich Naumann Foundation.[1]

MDL Director Marco Polessel declared in 2009 that he supported the actions of the Honduran Congress in using the military to expel President Manuel Zelaya and install Roberto Micheletti.[2]
