President Maduro paid posthumous tribute to David Nieves

The President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, conferred the replica of the saber of General in Chief Rafael Urdaneta, to the wife and children of David Nieves.

President Maduro affirmed that without the example, the capacity to fight and the resistance of the generation of David Nieves, Jorge Rodríguez, Victor Soto Rojas, among others, the strength of the Bolivarian Revolution would not have germinated.

The Venezuelan head of state recalled that David Nieves faced betrayals as occurs today in the struggle for the construction of Bolivarian Socialism: “the cowards who have betrayed also try to demoralize us from the outside”.

However, he called to follow the example of David Nieves, a brave, loyal, anti-imperialist and fighter man, who always kept his morale high, unshakable and never betrayed his companions.
