Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro convened the three-day meeting on October 31 during the closing session of the Greater Caribbean Parliamentary Meeting held in this capital with representatives from 14 countries, and brought together international delegates from all five continents.
Social leaders, intellectuals, artists, jurists, academicians, parliamentarians, journalists, women, youth, political parties, workers, indigenous peoples, and other movements arrived in Caracas to reaffirm the global commitment to a fair peace that respects the peoples’ sovereignty.
Also to boost an international movement that defends truth, justice, and respect for international law; and strengthens continental unity and solidarity among Latin America, the Caribbean, and the peoples of the world, in dialogue with the Global South and its integration platforms.
Additionally, to consolidate this capital as the political, moral, and spiritual epicenter of the struggles of the world’s peoples and movements for peace with sovereignty and proclaim the “Caracas Manifesto for Peace, Sovereignty, and Truth of the Peoples.”
The document, to which Prensa Latina had access to, stated that the meeting will have nine central issues related to Bolivarian Peace, international law, sovereignty, and security for the peoples, and the dispute between Bolivarianism and Monroeism.
