During a joint radio and television broadcast, President Maduro emphasized that the handing over of the 4 million homes was a \u201chistoric\u201d event and a \u201cworld record.\u201d \u201cNothing and no one is going to stop us,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The GMVV\u2019s 4 millionth house was handed over in the \u201cBicentennial Battle of Bombon\u00e1\u201d urban development, located in the Sotillo municipality in Anzo\u00e1tegui state by Governor Luis Marcano. During the telecast, Governor Marcano proudly reported that \u201cthose who today inhabit these 200 homes were working on its construction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In this regard, President Maduro ratified his commitment to continue building decent homes for the Venezuelan people, and vowed to deliver 5 million homes by 2024. \u201cToday we reached the record of 4 million homes of the Great Housing Mission of Venezuela, built by the hands of laborers, community members, and workers. I swear to you that we are going to reach 5 million homes, that is the goal for the months of April and May of the year 2024,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The head of state highlighted that his country is a world leader in guaranteeing housing rights despite suffering from the economic blockade imposed by the United States and the European Union. \u201cWe are the government that has built the most houses, you will never see this (news) in the big Western media, which have waged a media war against Venezuela and those we have defeated,\u201d he said. The president also stressed that the government achieved the milestone in the midst of the crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>President Maduro recalled that the GMVV was an initiative promoted by Commander Hugo Ch\u00e1vez to provide decent housing to the Venezuelan working class, and thereby \u201cdemonstrates the success of the Bolivarian socialist model.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"es\" dir=\"ltr\">\u00a14 Millones de Viviendas Dignas!
