Chavez: Cuba Topped Americas Summit
Caracas -
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez affirmed
that the main subject discussed in the
recently-concluded 5th Summit of the
Americas was the United States blockade of
Cuba. With different inflections but as an
orchestrated whole all the governments of
Latin America and the Caribbean continue to
demand elimination of the savage blockade of
the Cuban people by the United States
government, he said.
According to Chavez there is no
justification for the economic, trade and
financial siege of the island.
It was never justifiable, said the
Venezuelan leader during the inauguration of
a synthetic wood factory in the municipality
of Guacara, in Carabobo state.
And I said this in the Americas summit in
the presence of all the presidents present,
except Raul, Chavez emphasized in reference
to the exclusion of Cuba in these
hemispheric meetings designed by Washington
with the Organization of American States
(OAS).
Chavez also criticized the recipes that
arose in this forum that tend to maintain
the countries of the region dependent on
international financial institutions.
He said the International Monetary Fund will
not help overcome this situation because
that institution is to blame for the
economic and social crisis that now affects
the planet.
