I concern myself with Venezuela. However, some rightwing movements are transforming me into a pawn in the domestic politics of their countries, by making statements that are groundless.

Most governments in the United States in a hundred years have not respected the peoples of Latin America. They have sponsored coup d'etats, assassinations.

Even socialist dictators have an interest in gorgeous supermodels.

The only way to save the world is through socialism, but a socialism that exists within a democracy; there's no dictatorship here.

Latin Americans have gotten tired of the Washington consensus - a neoliberalism that has aggravated misery and poverty.

I am convinced that the path to a new, better and possible world is not capitalism, the path is socialism.

If you get up at three in the morning to go to the bathroom, man, why you have to turn on that little light? Put the torch there on the nightstand.
