Caracas, November 22 (RHC)-- Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, on the day of commemoration of Student's Day, denounced the impact of right-wing policies on education outside the borders of the South American country, and highlighted the importance of dialogue with students.

“The fascist extreme right promises to privatize all education, to assault power and to deliver education as a business, denying millions of children and young people their right to be formed as a useful person to their country,” he said.

Regarding the fascist right wing in other countries, he warned that “supported by the gringos, they are putting an end to university education.  Milei's Argentina is an example, the big media and networks cover it up.  It is destroying the centers of studies.  They are taking away the brains and souls of the Argentine people in the name of freedom”.

He also stressed that “they have put an end to social careers, to scientific careers, to technological study centers, they have put an end to everything. In Argentina, in the name of freedom, they are taking away the brains and soul of the Argentine people, this trash called Javier Milei, a fascist, Nazi trash”.

In this sense, he referred that privatization “would deny millions of boys, girls and young people their right to be formed as citizens, as men, as women, as a useful person to their country”.

Likewise, he reiterated that peace and academic development must reign in Venezuela, the strengthening of educational quality and university careers fully aligned with the development of the future country, the curricula must be updated.  “You are the technological generation of the 21st century and you have to be trained in the maximum application of technology,” the president stressed.

In this sense, he emphasized that this generation is “the technological patriotic generation, technological revolutionary, technological socialist, now we are in the time of artificial intelligence (AI).”

Likewise, President Maduro stated that “the subject of AI has to cross all careers”, and argued that it will never be able to replace the human being, “but it is impressive, applied to medicine, design, political science”.

“AI applied to all areas of human knowledge has already arrived and we must manage AI at the highest level with our strategic allies in the world, with China, with Russia, with India, with Iran” Maduro stressed.

Also in the meeting, it was proposed that in the next meeting with the Council of Ministers, together with the new Board of Directors of the Venezuelan Federation of University Students (FVEU), the first point should be the prioritized university careers and the management of AI from Venezuela.

And Nicolas Maduro also insisted on the need to strengthen the infrastructure and libraries of universities, digital libraries, canteens and transportation, welfare services and the recovery of scholarships to a level of dignity.
