Progressive sectors in Colombia condemn US military deployment

Bogota, Aug 27 (Prensa Latina) The deployment of US military and naval forces off the coast of Venezuela, under the pretext of anti-drug operations, deserves on Wednesday the condemnation of progressive sectors in Colombia.

The Historical Pact Political Movement issued a statement asserting that the action is a grave threat of aggression against Latin America and the Caribbean, and denounced that its true purpose is the illegal detention of leaders of a sovereign nation through methods that openly violate International Law.

It warned that this is a unilateral transgression aimed at normalizing illegal and immoral intervention in the institutional life of the Venezuelan State.

“The current US administration is seriously distorting international relations in a region that refuses to continue being treated as a backyard, in a clear and dangerous attempt to reimpose the outdated Monroe Doctrine,” the organization, made up of progressive associations, denounced.

The statement recalled that recent history warns of the devastating consequences of these military adventures and highlighted how the invasions in Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Afghanistan did not solve the problems they claimed to combat, but instead left chaos, destruction, endless humanitarian crises, and fragmented societies.

The Historic Pact stated, “Latin America is not willing to suffer the same fate.

Our continent will not be the next chapter in this failed imperialist manual.”
