“Long before, 100 years before Vladimir Ilich Ulianov, better known as Lenin, before he spoke of the union of Republics, Bolivar spoke here of the union of Republics. He spoke of a nation of republics,” he recalled.

In that scenario, he assured that “we have the absolute decision to unite with Colombia, to open borders, to open paths for integration and true union.”

“Colombia is counting on us for peace and infinity,” he emphasized.
