“Once and for all, they crushed the absurd idea that the suffering endured, and the blood and tears spilled throughout almost a hundred years of struggle for independence and justice against Spanish colonialism and its slavery-based model of exploitation, and later against imperialist domination and the corrupt and bloody governments imposed on Cuba by the United States, were to serve for the rebuilding of a neocolonialist, capitalist and bourgeois society.We did it at the exact and precise moment in history, not a minute before and not a minute later, and we were daring enough to attempt it”.

Nicolás Maduro, a man of the working class, modest, honorable and poor, who never aspired to any position whatsoever, and who is now devoting himself to fulfilling the responsibility placed in his hands by the unforgettable Hugo Chávez, leader of the Bolivarian Revolution, when fate prevented him from continuing to dedicate every minute, every second to what today constitutes humanity’s noblest dream".
