00:00And Venezuelans spread out all over the country to pay tribute to Supreme Leader Commander
00:05Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías on the 12th anniversary of his physical departure amidst nostalgia
00:10and commitment.
00:11Leonardo Urrieta tells us more.
00:18Since early in the morning, the city of Caracas, in the populous parish of 23 de Enero, witnessed
00:23how the Chávezda people visited the mountain barracks, emblematic site of the capital where
00:28the remains of Commander Chávez, who governed Venezuela along with the people between 1999
00:34and 2013, rest.
00:38A tribute called In Your Hands Is Your Flame was held at the place, a meeting in which
00:46honor was paid to the civic-military union promoted by Commander Chávez, and which is
00:50the basis of the fight against the actions of the extreme right, the defense of the sovereignty
00:55and dignity of the Venezuelan people.
00:58He was a man who gave his life for social justice, inclusion, love, the rescue of our
01:05own idiosyncrasy, and above all that the Constitution be respected with the full independence of
01:10our Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.
01:19Remembering Chávez for me is something very nice.
01:21Every time I remember him I cry, because for us he is the best thing that has happened
01:25to Venezuela, for our children, for our grandchildren.
01:29This is not for us, this is for our grandchildren.
01:36Chávez, besides being a political leader, touched the heart of the Venezuelan people
01:42with the For Now of February 4th, 1992, the genuine love between the people and Commander
01:49Hugo Chávez, grew until it became invincible.
01:55Chávez awakened this revolutionary people, this Bolivarian people.
01:59Thanks to him, the boot of the United States will never again tread on us, because we learned,
02:04from our eternal commander, many things, to survive with blockade, without blockade, with
02:08economic war or without economic war, we are surviving, moving forward and taking our country
02:13forward.
02:14It is an honor to have him in our office, to have him in our homes, because he fought
02:23so hard for us and gave his life for the Venezuelan people.
02:32Hugo Chávez was the pioneer in Latin America and the Caribbean in raising the flags in
02:42the defense of women, whose protagonism made women of the world and the continent feel
02:46visible and included in the project for the development of programs that benefit the population.
02:55Because by declaring state policy, Bolivarian feminist socialism, what did it do?
03:07To recognize the human race, that we are the women and men of the world.
03:18Venezuelans are very aware of the importance that Commander Hugo Rafael Chávez Frias gave
03:23shape to in international geopolitics, vital for the creation of integration mechanisms
03:28within the framework of the South-South agenda.
03:31In addition to deepening Latin American unity with instances such as community of Latin
03:36American and Caribbean states and ALBA-TCP.
03:41But we must also remember him as a man who always wanted the union of all the peoples
03:46of the Americas to build and create a great power.
03:54Chávez continues to be a key symbol for the struggles of the peoples of the world.
03:58His geo-strategic vision in favor of safeguarding humanity and love of neighbor is recognized
04:04by national and international popular movements and organizations.
04:11This people will never forget the president who gave back the smile and dignity to Venezuelans.
