(Text/Zhu Wanjun)

Adan Chávez, vice chairman of the Venezuelan United Socialist Party and Venezuelan ambassador to Cuba, said in an interview with the "Reference News" reporter in Havana, the capital of Cuba, a few days ago: "I personally feel in China that under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the people have shoulder to shoulder and heart to heart, and have made important achievements in the field of poverty alleviation. The full text is excerpted below:

Adan Chávez, the brother of the late former Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez, co-founded the ruling United Socialist Party with his brother in 2008 and has been vice chairman of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela since 2017.

"After visiting China, I have verified my understanding of China's path over the years." Adam Chávez said that during the four "compact" visits to China, he saw the substantial progress made by China in the economic, social, scientific, technological, environmental protection and other fields, and even more saw that the Chinese Communist Party played a "fundamental role" in it, so that "Chinese people support the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese government and recognize the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics."

In his view, adhering to the ruling concept of people first is the key to the success of the Chinese Communist Party. "Especially in the process of responding to the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the Communist Party of China attaches great importance to, strictly prevents and controls, and provides timely assistance", which has been actively cooperated and responded by the general public.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, and "fruitful achievements, remarkable achievements, and increasing people's sense of happiness" is Adam Chávez's evaluation of the CPC's centennial course. He said that the CPC has inherited and carried forward the fine traditions of its revolutionary predecessors, is good at analyzing and formulating clear political plans, enriches the connotation of socialist theory in the process of implementing the plans, and embarks on a development path that suits its own national conditions.

Adam Chávez believes that China's adherence to the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics and its success are of enlightening significance to Venezuela and other countries. "China's socialist construction has not only set an example for other countries, but also brought hope to the people of the world who are striving for freedom and sovereignty." He said: China's vivid practice has proved that the socialist road is effective.

"The Communist Party of China is the defender of the basic principles of international relations." Adam Chávez said that the CPC has always insisted on non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries, safeguarding multilateralism, promoting international solidarity and cooperation, and striving to build a community with a shared future for mankind.

In the interview, Adam Chávez took out the third volume of "Xi Jinping on Governing the Country" on the shelf and said that reading the latest works of Chinese leaders can help them understand the new ideas, new horizons and new developments that have burst out of China's development process, and the Venezuelan Embassy in Cuba has set up a study group to discuss, analyze and deeply understand some chapters of the book.

"China's governance model has achieved positive results in practice, and it is necessary for us to study, analyze, and learn from our socialist construction process." Adam Chávez said that in recent years, the Venezuelan United Socialist Party and the Communist Party of China have maintained good communication and cooperation, and the Venezuelan United Socialist Party has sent delegations to China many times to study, giving many party cadres the opportunity to personally perceive China's reality, and at the same time "helping us to improve the party's governing style and strengthen the party's ruling efficiency."

In addition, since the outbreak of the new crown epidemic in 2020, the United Socialist Party of Venezuela has participated in relevant video conferences organized by the Chinese side three times to "further promote solidarity and cooperation between the two countries and deepen brotherhood". "We hope that after the epidemic, we can resume mutual visits and continue to deepen exchanges and cooperation between the two parties." Adam Chavez said.
