Vice President Nicolas Maduro is taking over leadership of Hugo Chavez’s political movement after the socialist leader died Tuesday at age 58 following a nearly two-year bout with cancer. Maduro now faces the daunting task of rallying support in a deeply divided country while maintaining unity within his party’s ranks.
Maduro decidedly lacks the vibrant personality that made Chavez a one-man political phenomenon in Venezuela, but he has the advantage of being Chavez’s hand-picked successor.
The mustachioed 50-year-old former bus driver won Chavez’s trust as a loyal spokesman who echoed the president’s stances. How Maduro will lead in Chavez’s absence remains to be seen, although he’s widely known as both a skilled negotiator and a leader who views upholding his mentor’s legacy as his personal crusade and responsibility.
One of the biggest tasks Maduro will likely face is attempting to hold together a diverse movement that includes radical leftists, moderates and many current and former military officers.
Analysts have speculated that differences might emerge between factions led by Maduro and Diosdado Cabello, the influential National Assembly president who is thought to wield power within the military. But thus far both men have denied such divisions and vowed to remain united.
After Chavez’s Dec. 11 cancer surgery, Maduro stepped up his public appearances to fill the void, providing regular updates on the president’s condition, calling for unity among allies and lambasting the opposition.
Maduro also showed how he could attempt to continue Chavez’s socialist-inspired project. Speaking at one December rally, he vowed in vague terms to maintain policies that have angered the country’s leading business federation, Fedecamaras, which was long at odds with the president.
“We aren’t going to give dollars to Fedecamaras. What we’re going to give them is pains, headaches with this Bolivarian Revolution,” Maduro shouted, his voice hoarse. “I swear to you … we’re never going to betray the people of Venezuela!”
Chavez’s deteriorating health led him on Dec. 8 to announce Maduro as his chosen successor. He said that if his illness prevented him from being sworn in on Jan. 10, government supporters should rally around Maduro and elect him president.
Maduro is expected to keep promoting programs such as free medical clinics staffed by Cuban doctors and subsidized food stores, which have endeared the president with the country’s vast numbers of poor. Maduro has vowed to block a return to past policies that he said had benefited the wealthy.
“Our people will never again see the bourgeoisie plundering this country,” Maduro said, adding, “Better to be dead than traitors to the people and to Chavez!”
That loyalty made Maduro a logical choice, political observers said.
“Maduro combines two characteristics that influenced Chavez in his decision to designate him as successor: first, his loyalty to the party leadership, and second, his positions in favor of popular measures,” such as social programs for the poor, said Steve Ellner, a political scientist at Venezuela’s University of Oriente.
In his youth, Maduro drove a bus for the Caracas Metro transit system and later became a union leader.
