There were many who made the alert, some live, others are no longer among us. Pompeyo Márquez was one of those in which he expressed his reasons for not supporting Chávez because it meant a jump into the void, the former guerrilla knew what he was talking about, he came from the Soviet school, he understood that those mistakes could not be repeated, Teodoro Petkoff said something similar, the time after all these years he gave them the reason, but there is a particular prophecy that is reverberating the networks, Jorge Olavarría who his beginnings supported the commander until something made him stop and take a step back, In a famous speech that gave the late congress, the illustrious manifested the following words:
This solemn celebration the last of the century coincides with a reduced hour of the country, it is a sad, tense and shameful hour. Pregnant with dangers and threats for those of us who want to live in freedom and democracy under the rule of law,
If we Venezuelans let ourselves be hallucinated by a demagogue endowed with the talent of awakening hatreds and stoking atavisms of violence, with an intoxicating speech of denunciations of present corruptions and past heroics. Next year Venezuela will not enter the 21st century, it will be left behind in the worst of the 20th century. Or return to the worst of the nineteenth century.
These warnings were made in 1999. All were fulfilled, the good thing is that it leaves us many lessons for new challenges, thanks to everything bad, politically today we are more mature, when all this storm passes and we will never be seduced by prophets that supposedly come to save us, let us have faith that soon there will be a new beginning, but for now we are like that.
