Belém, Brazil, November 6 (Xinhua) — At the upcoming summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) and the European Union, Latin America will express solidarity with Venezuela amid growing military and political pressure from the United States. This was announced by Brazilian Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira on the sidelines of the 30th UN Climate Change Conference here on Wednesday.
According to him, the summit, which will take place in Colombia on November 9-10, will discuss regional support for and solidarity with Venezuela. The event will reflect Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's previously stated position that Latin America, and particularly South America, is a region of peace and cooperation, the minister added.
M. Vieira confirmed L.I. Lula da Silva's participation in the CELAC-EU summit and stated that the possibility of issuing a joint statement in support of Venezuela would depend on diplomatic negotiations that would take place in the coming days between CELAC members.
The Foreign Minister also noted that Brazil's position of solidarity with Venezuela will not affect the country's negotiations with the United States on tariffs.
Last week, Brazil's president told foreign correspondents that the CELAC-EU summit would address both the situation in Venezuela and the growing US military presence in the region. The United States has been targeting ships in the Caribbean that it suspects of drug trafficking.
