On the Death of Comandante Hugo Chavez
The
Coordinating Committee of the International Conference of Marxist-Leninist
Parties and Organizations
expresses our
regrets at the death of Comandante HUGO CHAVEZ FRIAS,
the President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, stating our solidarity
with the working class and people, with the government of the Boliviarian Republic, with the revolutionaries and the
communists, who are bravely fighting for the social and national liberation of
Venezuela.
The revolutionary process taking place in Venezuela, that involves millions of
people, workers and youth, is engaged in the task democratizing the society;
giving the poor sectors the right and possibility of health, education and
social security; breaking the opposition from the reactionaries and the
oligarchs; and has mobilized the working masses and the youth to defend this
process.
The Venezuelan government with Hugo Chavez at the head has established an
important policy of integration on the Latin American level, including the
various countries of the region, in particular those that are integrated in
ALBA. This process aims at an independent development and confronts the
unveiled opposition of north American imperialism,
that refuses to loose, what it has traditionally considered as its backyard.
For these reasons Comandante
Chavez has won the support of the fighters for social liberation and the
revolutionaries, of the workers and peoples of Latin America and other continents.
He emerges as a fighter, a resolute patriot, a consistent anti-imperialist. His
death seems to be a great loss to the struggle against tyranny and to the
unavoidable, but hard and difficult process of liberation of the peoples.
But this painful blow will not put an end to the struggle. On the contrary we
are convinced that the Venezuelan working class, people and youth will carry it
forward. They will know to distinguish between true friend and both the open
and disguised enemies, and resolutely march forward in the struggle for
liberation, on the road of revolution, towards socialism. With the
revolutionary proletarians in the lead they will bury capitalism and
imperialism, as will the other peoples of Latin America and the world.
The Marxist-Leninist parties and organizations of the ICMLPO renew our
commitment to the international proletarian revolution, to proletarian
internationalism, and express once more our conviction that the members of the
Marxist-Leninist Communist Party of Venezuela and the genuine revolutionary
forces in the country shall continue the struggle for the revolution and
socialism, until victory.
