At the end of his morning press conference at the National Palace, the president referred to his telephone conversation yesterday with Senator Christopher Dodd, the White House delegate for the summit, and revealed that the State Department is analyzing his proposal and hope that today or tomorrow there will be an answer.
I can say, he assured, that there is an atmosphere of great respect in the talks, trust and affection for Biden, and that we hope that the proposal of not excluding anyone will be taken into account.
We are going to wait, I am confident because it is time for a great talk, of starting a new stage in the relations of the countries of America and it will be an example for the world, and only President Joe Biden can do it.
For this reason, he affirmed, I do not rule out the possibility that he will enter into this agreement. You know that it is not easy at all, it is complex because they are changes in old policies that date back more than two centuries and that were encouraged by ideology, but we have to relate to each other differently in America and the world.
He insisted that confrontation and war must be put aside and a friendly relationship with the peoples must be sought to prevent the people from suffering due to bad political decisions.
Actually, the differences are truly inconsequential, but the vested interest groups place them above all else and elevate them to a supreme rank, and generally it has to do with the ideological, the dogmatic, and fanaticism.
The political leadership of the world is to blame, because politics was invented to avoid confrontation and war. So let’s look for brotherhood relationships, let’s bet on a world where brotherhood and love prevail, he said.
That is very important right now, and I am confident that we will set an example throughout America. We are going to wait and I believe that the United States’ response will be known soon, he concluded.
