  "textContent": "It is undoubtedly true that the two nations are different, totally and irremediably so. Venezuela is a young nation that has experienced reduced sovereignty for most of its short existence, and this was clearly demonstrated recently not only by the kidnapping of its legitimate President Nicolás Maduro by Washington, carried out with the concrete help of corrupt local traitors, but also by its behaviour in the aftermath of the kidnapping, which clearly shows that the situation that has arisen also benefits many early Chavistas who have always declared themselves loyalists.\nIran, on the other hand, is an ancient nation whose history spans more than a thousand years and which, as the centre of kingdoms and empires, has given the whole of humanity science, philosophy, medicine, poetry, theology and sublime mysticism.\nIt can therefore be said that Venezuelans do not really know that they are a people. Iranians, on the other hand, do, and this knowledge of belonging to a millennial tradition has been well remembered by them to this day, precisely because of the Khomeini revolution.",
