Hugo Chaves -
the great hero of the socialists in Portugal,
the greatest friend of José Socrates,
and there wasn't enough words to flatter
this revolutionary visionary and fellow companion in
corruption deals.
José Sócrates, who for seven years led the increase
in bilateral political relations that went beyond
the mere coexistence between friendly states.
Socrates served as a partner to Chavez to be seen,
in Latin America as a citizen with an open door in Europe.
On a visit to Portugal in 2008,
Chavez spoke for more than an hour, with Socrates at his side,
live on Venezuelan television.
In exchange, the Government obtained supplies of oil
and business deals, such as the million Magelhães computers,
that JP Couto supplied to Caracas.
The 50,000 houses that the Building constuction firm Lena,
was supposed to build on the other side of the Atlantic
never left the paper.
José Sócrates recalled Chavez
as a "charismatic president in his country"
and "has always left the most evident evidence
of great friendship for Portugal and the Portuguese."
And he emphasized "a life of willingness, devoted to action
and to what it has at the beginning of surprising, unforeseen.
A life with others, alongside others,
with the ambition of self-righteousness
who has always had an optimistic view of human nature ".
He added that Chavez lived "a life full of uncertainties,
challenges and risks, typical of one who never feared
the responsibility of his freedom and his will."
And he assumed himself as the "author of his own biography".
