Letter of Support from Venezuela's University Students Federation for Iranian Students

Iranian students:



This New Year will be the year of the young liberators, openers of a new cycle of life in the world for the welfare of all citizens, and the routing of our way of doing politics in our spaces.



It will be the consolidation of a movement that has been characterized by being a faithful servant of the principles of university autonomy and the Constitution of the Republic. It will be the year where we will gather the fruits of the fight we have begun and we will show to those who try to silence the voices of the future, we will continue breaking paradigms due to our way of being, people and their messages, for our actions and footprints left behind.



As the strength, commitment and conviction mark our footsteps, the youth can rest easily because we will have hope in the near future, because the fate of our nations have been irrevocably fixed to hope, for people who love their freedom finally succeed in obtaining it.



Students, who have not been shaken by the violent passions of revenge, corruption and greed, like those now in power, are permitted under all laws of equity and history to raise our voices in the name of the motherland and its people.



We have been and will always be proud of our glorious Universities, which have profound impact over the population and the future of our Countries.



Fellow fighters for freedom! Many greetings and wishes of infinite joy, strength and courage from the distance, from Venezuela, so that in this New Year, this new opportunity, we can return with clear consciences to continue fighting for men and women without ruined accounts with historical justice, to assume the leading role.



"The Rock"
The distracted tripped over it. The violent used it as a projectile. The entrepreneur built with it. The farmer, tired, used it to rest. Drummond poeticized. David slew Goliath. Michelangelo created beautiful sculptures! In all cases the difference was not in stone but in man.



The year 2010 is the same for all, but it depends on what we do with it.


Happy 2010!!

Let's keep fighting for the dream of freedom and democracy, continue raising our voices fearlessly towards a victory that is coming and not surrender, because in our hands are the destinies of the future of our country!

On behalf of the Venezuelan student movement, best regards from the distance!
