Freedom Road Socialist Organization congratulates Venezuela’s largest trade union federation, the CBST, on the 15th anniversary of your founding. The Central Bolivariana Socialista de Trabajadores y Trabajadoras de la Ciudad, el Campo y la Pesca represents 40 federations, 1,200 unions, 1,200,000 affiliated members and collective agreements that benefit over 4 million workers.
We honor your achievements in organization and advancement of the Venezuelan working class while maintaining a high level of proletarian internationalism. We join in your efforts to have your democratically-elected worker-President Nicolas Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores freed from U.S. prison and returned to their rightful place in the Bolivarian Revolution.
Long live international solidarity,
Freedom Road Socialist Organization
