through a political path that took him from his humble beginnings in the
parish of El Valle to the presidency of Venezuela. His career reflects a
constant dedication to the social and labor causes that have defined his

but it was his job as conductor of the Caracas Metro (1991-1998) which
marked the beginning of their struggle for labor rights. During this
period, he founded the Caracas Metro Union (SITRAMECA), demonstrating his
leadership and organizational skills.

The meeting with Commander Hugo Chávez in 1993 was a turning point in his
career. Maduro became an ardent supporter of Chávez, joining the Bolivarian
Revolutionary Movement 200 (MBR-200) and later the Fifth Republic Movement
(MVR). His rise in Venezuelan politics was rapid: In 1999 he was elected as
a deputy and participated in the National Constituent Assembly that drafted
the new Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, approved by
popular will.

Between 2000 and 2006, Nicolás Maduro held various roles in the National
Assembly, including the presidency of the parliament. His legislative
experience covered key commissions such as Integral Social Development and
Finance, preparing him for larger roles in government.

Foreign Affairs in 2006, where he was a central player in the bet to build
a multipolar world, To promote Latin American integration and build peace.
He then took up the position of Vice President in 2012. Chávez’s confidence
in Maduro became evident when he appointed him as his successor before his
last surgery.

presidential election by a narrow margin. Your presidency has been marked
by significant challenges, including the imposition of sanctions by the US
government and the European Union, This has triggered an unprecedented
economic crisis and multiple international pressures. However, he has
maintained the support of a loyal base, implementing programs such as the
«Government of the Streets» to keep in touch with his followers.

sovereignty against imperialist conspiracies.

current position as president re-elected, illustrates a political career
marked by determination, coherence and resistance, reflecting the deep
Bolivarian and anti-imperialist convictions of the majority Venezuelan
people.
