President Calls for
Dialogue,
Understanding, Respect
Addressing a celebration on February 15 marking
the
bicentenary of the Angostura Conference -- where in the midst of
the
fight for independence from Spain, Latin American
liberator Simon Bolívar delivered a famous speech --
President
Nicolás Maduro said the [U.S.] empire has gone mad,
believing
that
the times of the 20th century gunboats and coups can be
revived. But, he said, Venezuela's Bolivarian Revolution is
giving the world an exemplary class in politics on how to
defend one's homeland at a decisive moment for its
self-determination. He said the White House has entered an
impasse, its coup d'état has failed and that the only way
to
resolve political controversies and find possible solutions is
through dialogue, understanding and respect. He said he is at
the disposal of the Montevideo Mechanism put forward by Mexico,
CARICOM, Uruguay and Bolivia on February 6, prepared to come with
constructive proposals to seek peace and harmony in
Venezuela.
