This Tuesday, the President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro Moros, ordered the creation of a Parliamentary Political School, with a Latin American and Caribbean focus, to be named after the revolutionary leader David Nieves Banchs.
Likewise, he emphasized that the creation of this school aims to include all of the country’s parliamentarians and, in this way, train great political leaders, because «Venezuela will always be democratic.»
Similarly, the head of state stated that each of the nation’s revolutionary parliamentarians must get prepared themselves; since they «must be a sounding board for the People’s Power.»
Political Stability of the Country:
At the same time, the President emphasized the importance of the country’s political stability, and therefore assigned a fundamental task to the new members of the National Assembly (AN): to open the gates of dialogue, to seek out those who «for some reason have not believed or do not believe in the project of Bolívar, of Chávez, for any thousand reasons there must be, some just and others unjust, discouragement or dissatisfaction, or lack of belief,» and to guide them toward the path of the Bolivarian Revolution.
«We are at the best moment of the Bolivarian Revolution to engage in cross-cutting dialogue and to rectify the mistakes we have made,» he stated.
For her part, the first member of the National Assembly, Cilia Flores, asserted that this is a National Assembly for a new time, a new era, and that, therefore, each of the Representatives must be aligned with the new AN:
«We are going to work in the Communal Councils and communes to simplify the laws, life, and the lives of ordinary men and women. We are born unequal, but the laws are not. We are going to achieve social, political, and economic equality, because this is a big step, and we are going to a new National Assembly aligned with a project,» emphasized the Deputy to the National Assembly.
Within this context, it is important to know who David Nieves was:
From a very young age, he was an active militant who confronted the dictatorship of Marcos Pérez Jiménez; and in the 1960s, he joined the guerrillas and became a patrol leader in the «Ezequiel Zamora Guerrilla Front» in the El Bachiller Hill in Miranda state.
He was one of the most tortured political prisoners during the Punto Fijo regime. He was detained in the San Carlos Barracks and, with the vote of the people, was released to become a deputy for the Socialist League in the Congress of the Republic.
Also, through the years he led a revolutionary life and was a member of the Political Council of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV).
