“I told him this,” #Machado continued. “200 years ago General (Marquis de) Lafayette gave Simón Bolívar a medal with George Washington’s face on it. Bolivar since then kept the medal for the rest of his life.”

“200 years in history, the people of Bolivar are giving back to the heir of Washington a medal, in this case the medal of the #NobelPeacePrize as a recognition for his unique commitment with our freedom.”
