The President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro Moros, on behalf of the Venezuelan people and Government, congratulates the brotherly Bolivian people for the broad and unobjectionable triumph of the Movement to Socialism (MAS) on the historic electoral journey of October 18, 2020, while congratulating the President-elect of the Plurinational State of Bolivia, Luis Arce and the Vice-President-elect, David Choquehuanca, for the resounding victory achieved in the presidential elections.
This historic triumph renews the hope of the Bolivian people, who are resuming the democratic path towards social justice, despite the suffering and trauma imposed during the last 12 months. The massive electoral turnout reinforces the legitimacy of the process and provides a clear message of popular rejection of the fascist coup d’état carried out a year ago.
It has been the humble and the humble, the workers, the indigenous peoples, the brave women and youth, who have rescued the Bolivian Homeland from the jaws of neoliberal imperialism. No repressive power could impose itself on the will of a free people.
By highlighting the heroism of the sons and daughters of Túpak Katari, Bartolina Sisa, Simón Bolívar and Antonio José de Sucre, the Government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela pays special recognition to Brother President Evo Morales Ayma, for his capacity for resistance and strategic perseverance to guarantee the successful viability of this new and luminous stage that the Bolivian people are undertaking.
