Yon Goicoechea is a hero, thanks to his intervention and brilliant message to all Venezuelan students which reached and touched everyone including Chavistas prior to the Referendum of December 2, 2007, Venezuelans are enjoying hope for a better future. Mr. Goicoechea explained to the attendees that he has a message of liberty, reconciliation, peace and civility. Mr. Goicoechea also explained that Chavez belongs to the past, and this new generation will remove the infamous Chavez rhetoric and fruitless movement introduced to the Venezuelan society.

Venezuelans need help from developed governments and international organizations to restore democracy and end corruption.

Cordially,
