Pretoria, March 5, 2020.- This Thursday, March 5, it was seven years since the physical disappearance of the leader of the Bolivarian Revolution, Commander Hugo Chávez Frías, who left an indestructible legacy of struggle and resistance in Venezuela and throughout Latin America and the Caribbean.
Chávez developed a project to transform Venezuelan society with the aim of eliminating the structures of the capitalist system and promoting the values of freedom, equality, and solidarity in Venezuela.
Despite the application of coercive measures, the Venezuelan Government has continued with the social agenda initiated by Chávez. The resistance of the Venezuelan people to the aggressions of the United States is a sign of the validity of the ideals of Commander Chávez.
The commander in chief of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, maintained an indestructible brotherhood bond with Chávez. Both leaders undertook the task of forever changing the way of doing politics in the region, by strengthening the ties of cooperation that is evident today in the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America. Another clear example of this was constituted by the social missions of Cuba and Venezuela, such as the "Miracle Mission", which helped recover the vision of more than 3 million 470 thousand 206 patients in Latin America and the entire world.
Fidel was right when, upon learning of the death of Chávez, he said: "Even he himself did not suspect how great he was."
Seven years after the physical departure of Cuba's Best Friend, as Fidel called him, the example of Chávez multiplies in the lands of Our America and in the world. His perennial sense of justice and his attachment to the most humble, trace the Bolivarian route of unity and resistance against imperialism.
