Diplomat Highlights Algeria’s Regional Influence and Commitment to Sovereignty at National Martyrs’ Day Ceremony

Algiers, Algeria | February 18th, 2025 — In an exclusive statement to Dzair Tube, delivered during the National Martyrs’ Day commemoration at Djilali Bounaama University in Khemis Miliana, Venezuela’s Ambassador to Algeria, Juan Arias Palacio, reaffirmed his country’s unwavering support for Palestine and lauded Algeria’s historic role as a beacon of leadership and sovereignty on the African and global stage.

Honoring Martyrs: A Path to National Sovereignty

Speaking to Dzair Tube, the Venezuelan diplomat underscored the significance of educating future generations on the sacrifices made by martyrs, emphasizing that genuine independence and freedom can only be preserved through knowledge, diligence, and unwavering commitment to national sovereignty. He stressed that remembering and honoring the fallen is not merely a ceremonial duty but a profound responsibility that requires active efforts to uphold their legacy.

“We must instill in the youth a deep respect for the martyrs, ensuring that their sacrifices are honored through education and relentless pursuit of national sovereignty. There is no other way to guarantee lasting freedom and independence,” the ambassador declared.

Venezuela’s Unshakable Commitment to Palestine

Touching upon the Palestinian cause, the Venezuelan representative reiterated his country’s longstanding support for Palestinian sovereignty, denouncing Zionist occupation and calling for an urgent resolution that ensures the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.

“For many years, Venezuela has stood firmly in defense of Palestine in every international forum. We remain committed to advocating for its rightful independence and hope to see the dawn of Palestinian statehood soon,” he affirmed.

His remarks come at a time when global support for Palestine continues to gain momentum, with Algeria and Venezuela at the forefront of diplomatic and political efforts to uphold Palestinian rights on the international stage.

Algeria’s Ascension in African and Global Diplomacy

The ambassador also commended Algeria’s election as Vice President of the African Union Commission, describing it as a testament to the country’s strategic importance and leadership across the African continent. He emphasized that Algeria is not just a regional powerhouse but a key player in shaping Africa’s future.

“Algeria’s role in Africa is undeniable. It is a pioneering nation, a regional force, and a leader in diplomatic and economic spheres. Its election to this prominent position within the African Union is a well-earned recognition of its influence and vision. We extend our best wishes to Algeria in this new responsibility and in all its future endeavors,” he stated.

The ambassador’s remarks reflect the deep-rooted solidarity between Algeria and Venezuela, both of which have historically championed the causes of national liberation, self-determination, and resistance against neocolonialism.
