On June 24, 2025, the Government of Reconciliation and National Unity of Nicaragua, led by Co-Presidents Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo, sent a heartfelt message to Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro commemorating the 204th anniversary of the Battle of Carabobo.
This letter, shared by Venezuelan Foreign Minister Iván Gil, highlighted the deep bonds of brotherhood, shared struggle, and unwavering commitment to sovereignty that unite both nations.
The Nicaraguan statement emphasized that the Battle of Carabobo was a defining moment that “ratified the decision of our peoples to be free, independent, and sovereign.” It paid tribute to Simón Bolívar, calling him “the Great, the Liberator; the Dreamer, the indissoluble Leader of our brave and irreducible unity.” This historic victory remains a beacon of hope and resistance against imperialist forces seeking to undermine Latin American self-determination.
In a tone imbued with solidarity and revolutionary spirit, Nicaragua reaffirmed the “inviolable spirit of struggle and victory that characterizes us.” The message underscored the enduring unity between Nicaragua and Venezuela, declaring that “Nicolás is and will continue to be our motto for all battles and all victories.” This reflects the shared commitment to justice, love, and the defense of national sovereignty.
Foreign Minister Iván Gil expressed profound gratitude for Nicaragua’s message, highlighting the importance of unity and peace among Latin American peoples. He praised the Battle of Carabobo as a heroic and victorious event led by Bolívar, “the great architect of the dream of Latin American unity,” and fought by a “noble people who took the reins of their own destiny.”
The text reads: On behalf of President @NicolasMaduro, we send a revolutionary greeting to the leaders of Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo. We sincerely thank them for their message of reflection on the unity and peace of our peoples on this 204th anniversary of the heroic and victorious Battle of Carabobo, led by Simón Bolívar, the great architect of the dream of Latin American unity, and fought by a noble people who took the reins of their own destiny.
This gesture reinforces the historic alliance between Venezuela and Nicaragua, both governments steadfast in advocating for the self-determination and sovereignty of Latin American nations.
The message from Nicaragua to Venezuela is more than a commemoration,it is a reaffirmation of a shared geopolitical vision rooted in anti-imperialism and the legacy of independence heroes. Both nations remain committed to building a united Latin America that resists foreign domination and champions the rights and dignity of its peoples.
