00:00 The Venezuelan National Assembly unanimously approved the draft resolution by which the passage to the National Pantheon of Brigadier General Domingo Antonio Sifontes is consented.
00:11 During the first ordinary session of the Venezuelan Parliament in 2024, the Venezuelan deputies honoured General Domingo Antonio Sifontes on the 112th anniversary of his death.
00:23 As part of the agenda of the Venezuelan Assembly, it was agreed to honour General Domingo Sifontes as Fatherland's Hero.
00:30 At the end of the session, the President of the National Assembly invited the parliamentarians to participate in the homage to the hero in his transit to the National Pantheon.
00:41 This agreement is contemplated in the Article 187, No. 15 of the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, which grants the National Assembly the power to grant the honours of the National Pantheon to illustrious Venezuelans who have rendered eminent services to the Republic.
01:04 The death of a military man trained in our army and at the same time a man of letters, an intellectual, who was called by Mario Riseño Iragodri, the Quixote of Nationality, who was also known as the Terror of the English,
01:19 was what they humbly called the Cuyuni incident, but it was nothing more than a real battle, as mentioned by our President Nicolás Maduro, who took prisoners in the English Commander and other criminals who were taken to Puerto Ordaz to answer to the justice of Venezuela.
01:35 Likewise, Defence Minister Veladimir Padrino LĂłpez said that the demonstrations on the campaign for the Ezequiel reflect the patriotism of General Sifontes.
01:45 These recent demonstrations of patriotism, expressing the operational activity of the Bolivarian National Armed Forces on our Atlantic coast, in a teacher who teaches his students the greatness of Venezuela,
01:58 in a child who paints our national flag in our Ezequiel, in citizens that express their will to recover the stolen territory in the consultative referendum on December 3rd,
02:09 perfectly match one of the great recommendations that General Sifontes gave in his lifetime for the following years.
