Actually, it is debatable. In singular possession, which is your case, some writers just put an apostrophe and others " 's ". In plural possession, it is certainly just an apostrophe.

Yes, the possesive for "Chavez" is "Chavez's".
Here is a link to a page that I think will help.: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zvwwxnb/articles/zx9ydxs

Not really an expert, but I found this page
https://www.thepunctuationguide.com/apostrophe.html
which has an exception for nouns that seem plural, such as
the United States’ lingering debt problem
.
Does not at first sight seem to be your case, but there is nothing else I see to explain it.
Is "Chávez" plural?
