In the name of the people of Venezuela and in my own I thankfully acknowledge the felicitations Your Excellency sends me on the occasion of the celebration of the first centennial of our independence. Accept my best wishes for the growing prosperity of the great American Nation and Your Excellency’s personal happiness.
