In this framework, the Head of State recalled that this March 5 marks the 9th anniversary of Commander Hugo Chávez’s passage to immortality:

Nine years have passed since that hour of terrible shock, that our mind, our body, our life cannot forget. Nine years ago we received the hardest blow that our country had ever received in the history”, he said.

President Maduro pointed out that the impact of what Chavismo is as a theoretical current, as a historical reality, must be defined very clearly and with great quality.

It is the synthesis of all the paths and all the resistance struggles of our people in more than 500 years (…) The peoples always come back, sometimes they come back with new colors, our faces, but they always come back, it is an eternal return of the original project of a mestizo, magical, unique Latin America, which is the synthesis of all the struggles”, said Maduro.

In his words before the plenary of the PSUV Congress, the national president highlighted that this year will be celebrated the 200th anniversary of the meeting of Manuela Sáenz and the Liberator Simón Bolívar in Quito, which is why he announced his visit to Ecuador to commemorate this historical date:

“This year we commemorate the 200th anniversary of the meeting of Manuela Sáenz and the Liberator Simón Bolívar in Quito.”
