The president in charge of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez, highlighted this Saturday the importance of the XXXVII Military Inter-Academy Games 2026, which brought together more than 3,500 cadets from the 12 academies of the Bolivarian Military University of Venezuela (UMBV).
“I feel at home, accompanied by a beautiful, splendid youth, a youth that moralizes us, a youth that tells us: 'Move on, never faint'; those are you, the Bolivarian military youth of Venezuela,” Rodríguez said during the closing ceremony of the sporting event, from the gymnasium of the Military Academy of the Bolivarian Army (AMEB), in Fuerte Tiuna.
He highlighted the example of unity of Venezuelan military youth “for sovereignty, independence and peace. That is our message to the world, and a central message as well, honor to the vanquished and glory to the winner. Congratulations to all of you who have participated in these games,” he said.
Rodríguez recalled that these games have been held for 76 consecutive years “of a great historical tradition (...) Games symbolize friendship, games symbolize that we connect with other human beings based on equality, with respect and with that spirit of competition and that is why it is so important to honor the loser and glory to the winner”, he emphasized.
