Casa de las Americas rejected the organization of a neo-fascist summit in the continent, promoted by extreme right-wing representatives.

Havana, Nov 18 (RHC) The Casa de las Americas, a cultural institution based in Cuba, rejected the organization of a neo-fascist summit in the continent, promoted by extreme right-wing representatives.

Through an official statement, it called on all honest people of the most dissimilar political tendencies to join their voices to denounce this fascist offensive. In addition, the entity denounced how the right wing is developing new plans to try to stop the advance of left-wing governments in the region.

On November 18 and 19 -convened by the Political Conference Conservative Action- will take place in Mexico a summit of the defeated in which Mauricio Macri, José Antonio Kast, Keiko Fujimori, and Eduardo Bolsonaro (son of the Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro) will shine, it pointed out.

During the meeting, the text added, characters such as Luis Fernando Camacho, Steve Bannon, and Lech Walesa will not be out of place either.

"It is enough to look at the names to realize that today it is not a matter of competing with the enlightened right wing that raised the so-called liberal values, but of confronting the most unbridled reaction, and even neo-fascism".

Faced with the triumph in Latin America of progressive governments driven by faith in real change and discontent with the devastating policies promoted by their opponents, it was to be expected that the right would launch a counterattack, the Casa de las Americas statement stressed.

The right-wing in Latin America and the Caribbean is a "zealous guardian of democracy when the rules of the game favor it"; but if it fears losing its privileges, it resorts to the broadest spectrum of violence, including coups d'état and, when necessary, torture, disappearances, and massacres, it said.

Only once it has consolidated its power, it returns to show a friendlier face, until circumstances do not lead it to appeal again to its ferocious side, the statement stressed.

"The hopeful victories of the left in recent years in our region must be defended. We must unmask all the traps and plots that threaten efforts to expand social justice and the vindication of the poor of the earth."

Casa de las Americas also warned that the world is witnessing an alarming growth of the racist and xenophobic extreme right "that fuels hatred from the media and social networks and abominates immigrants and minorities as well as reformist moderates." (Source: Prensa Latina).
