On December 10, 2007, the Leader of the Bolivarian Revolution, Hugo Chávez Frías, reaffirmed the importance of always remembering historical events such as the Battle of Ayacucho, because “remembering it was the convergence, it was the union of five centuries and a thousand peoples”.

In that sense, from the city of Caracas, he recalled how in Ayacucho “everyone came together because not only do men fight, women like us fight battles and great battles. Only united were they able to definitively defeat the Spanish Empire.”

“This is a message that today I invite all of us to continue reading, because we must remember, I insist, that very soon after Ayacucho, everything collapsed (...) and Bolívar's painful prophecy ended up being fulfilled in a thousand places and in a thousand ways Bolívar said it “if we don't give strength to our nascent governments... otherwise we can't give strength to our nascent institutions, otherwise we can merge... these republics, if we can fuse the national spirit, if we can fuse the national soul into a whole, the national spirit as a whole, the national body as a whole, a new colonization we will bequeath to posterity... '”, emphasized the Commander.
