Leader of the Sandinista Popular Revolution
June 23rd 2023
Here, before Colonel Santos López, a vital link in the struggle of General Sandino and the Sandinista National Liberation Front, here we declare we continue to fight with Carlos, with Tomás, and with Colonel Santos López, and always, in all the immensity of our Nation, in all the immensity of the Peoples of our Latin America and the Caribbean, and in the World, our General Sandino's message prevails and remains the Truth: "You will never be forgiven, Nicaraguans, for turning the other cheek to the invaders; your hands, Nicaraguans, must become a cyclone over the descendants of William Walker”"
Sandino Lives, the Struggle Goes On!
Here, before our Heroes, Nicarao, Diriangén, José Dolores Estrada, Andrés Castro, Benjamín Zeledón, General Sandino, and Carlos Fonseca, we say: A Free Nation or Death! Onward Always to Victory!
Comments by Compañera Rosario, Vice President of Nicaragua,
after the event to commemorate the 87th Anniversary
of the birth of Comandante Carlos Fonseca Amador
June 23rd 2022
We are always moved here, before the great National Heroes, before the Leader of the Revolution, before our General Sandino, embodied in Carlos, embodied in Colonel Santos López, and embodied in Tomás. It moves us to tears to know that it is up to us to assume responsibility for defending all the Victories. And we mean it from the heart. And we say it with the feeling of a Sacred Oath.
We are advancing to the Sun of Victory, that's what Sandino said. We make our way towards the Sun of Victory...! In these Days of Commemoration, in these Days of Glorious Anniversaries, in these Days of a Nation Blessed and Free, we affirm it: We continue to make our Way, Always Further On, Towards the Sun of All Victories.
A warm embrace to everyone, Compañer@s. Thank you.
