That's a super important question, Aisha, because I think that the main lesson that we have learned at Venezuelans during these long years is called responsibility.
This has to do with you.
And, you know, we have been building trust
among each other.
We have tearing down the barriers that the regime had built to divide Venezuelan society, but we have promoted and we have learned that it all depends on you, on the people.
The people is not an abstract concept.
It's made by millions of conscious citizens that understand that citizenship has to do with rights and duties.
And I think this is a main lesson this generation has learned.
And that's why I think that we will achieve freedom with a huge, huge cost, great pain.
But there's no other generation in the history of Venezuela that values freedom, values being able to be and live in your country freely.
and values family, having your family together, your children at home, as we do.
From a cultural perspective, this is also a great threshold in our history.
And for good, and for good, and for long, we are going to build institutions that I know that will last for centuries to come.
Thank you.
