The Vice President of the Republic, Delcy Rodríguez, highlighted that Venezuela has positioned itself as the country with the highest economic growth in Latin America during the year 2025, according to figures published by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC).

Rodríguez emphasized that this rebound in the indicators is a direct result of the joint effort of various sectors of the country, including workers, business owners, entrepreneurs, farmers, and fishermen. He maintained that the unity of these sectors has been fundamental in maintaining an unwavering determination in the face of the sanctions and economic blockade imposed by the United States government and its allies.

The official emphasized that the national recovery model has prevailed over financial pressures, allowing productive forces and community members to drive current stability. She also projected a positive scenario for the coming cycle, asserting that the nation will maintain its path of growth and economic successes by 2026.

In recent days, President Nicolás Maduro also referred to the ECLAC report that positioned Venezuela as one of the main drivers of economic growth in the region. Maduro projected that the real increase in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will be close to 9% by the end of the period, confirming the positive trend of the Venezuelan economy.
