Dear Daniel:
It was with great
satisfaction that I have just finished listening to your excellent statements
at the Eighth PETROCARIBE Summit. It was only fair that Nicaragua, a country
that was able to defeat the treacherous blow dealt by the empire which was then
governed by one of the most uncultured and cynical fakes ever elected by the US
oligarchy, had been chosen as the venue of that meeting.
He used the drugs and weapons
traffic proceeds to take out of the Venezuelan prisons the most notorious terrorist
of the group founded by the CIA to blow up in mid-air a Cuban airliner carrying
73 passengers, among them, a group of Cuban youths who had just won the Central
American Fencing Championship.

Including the long list of
crimes and plundering carried out elsewhere in the world by the empire’s
governments and repressive forces and their bastard accomplices will make this
message endless.
I would like to congratulate
you, Daniel, and Rosario, on today’s formidable meeting.
On a day like today, I can

are deeply rooted in the working class, who never hoped for any position and is
today fully dedicated to accomplish the task entrusted to him by the
unforgettable Hugo Chávez, the leader of the Bolivarian Revolution, when, as
fate had it, he was prevented from continuing to devote every minute and every
second to what is today the loftiest dream of humanity.
Maduro has proved to
have the talent, integrity and energy that the great leader assumed he had.
Talent also shone among all the
leaders that met in
I could not conclude these
words without expressing my empathy for Rafael Correa, the President of
Ecuador, who right at this moment, when the empire is threatening with wars and
the possible use of sophisticated weapons against the People’s Republic of
China and the Russian Federation, two powerful nations which were never
colonial powers and are currently victims of the threatening attitudes of the
United States, energetically rejected the threats launched by the President of
the Senate’s Committee on Foreign Relations, in case Ecuador granted Edward
Snowden the political asylum he requested.
The communiqué issued by the
Presidency of the Republic reads as follows: “
Congratulations to everybody,
Daniel. A strong embrace for you and Rosario.
Ever onwards to victory! , as our Commander Hugo Chávez used to say.
