Our movements further call on CARICOM, Caribbean governments, and the people of the Caribbean to condemn this reckless action by the government of the US. The US government is creating the conditions for a war in Latin America and the Caribbean so that it can exploit the people and resources in Latin America and the Caribbean. Our movements also call on the progressive movements that support the Bolivarian Revolution in Venezuela to organise protest actions outside all of the US embassies in the world.
