La Paz, Mar 6 (Prensa Latina) Bolivian President Evo Morales, said that the recently deceased Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, is more alive than ever and insisted that "he will always be with us."

In an address to the nation from the Palacio Quemado, Morales said "on behalf of the Bolivian people our condolences over the death of President Hugo Chavez."

"We are devastated by the death of the brother Hugo Chavez," said Bolivian head of state with broken voice, while he was accompanied by several members of his cabinet, including Vice President Álvaro García Linera.
