On behalf of the Simon Bolivar Institute for Peace and Solidarity among Peoples, we salute the Red Ant Collective of Australia as they celebrate their first national gathering and conference on socialist education.

Our world faces a tremendous crises of the capitalist model of production, which by now has proven over and over again, that it is not able to meet the basic necessities of people and of the environment, in order to guarantee life.

That is why it is of utmost importance that we encourage ideological debate and revolutionary practice in order to find new alternatives that are fair and that can guarantee sovereignty and dignified living for all peoples.

This is the challenge of our time, and we are encouraged that a collective such as Red Ant, which defends the struggle of the Venezuela people throughout the world, can also bring the debate for socialism to Australia.

We wish you a successful gathering and we are thankful for your internationalist solidarity with the struggle and gains of the Bolivarian Revolution.

¡Venceremos!
