Cuba ratifies commitment to peace in Latin America and the Caribbean

 

Havana, January 29 (RHC) The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Cuba, Bruno Rodríguez, this Monday ratified the island's commitment to supporting peace, independence, the right to free self-determination and sovereignty of the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean.

The Cuban Foreign Minister recalled on his X account that this January 29 marks a decade since the signing of the Proclamation of Latin America and the Caribbean as a Zone of Peace, during the second CELAC Summit in Havana.

The Proclamation of Latin America and the Caribbean as a Zone of Peace was signed by the heads of State and Government of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), at the end of the Summit that took place on January 28 and 29, 2014, in Havana, Cuba.

With this document, the 33 countries of the integration mechanism assumed a permanent commitment to the peaceful resolution of disputes, with the objective of banishing the use or threat of force in the region.

CELAC itself, established on February 23, 2010, is governed by the principles of dialogue and political consensus, as an articulating mechanism to work on the basis of consensus and the defense of peace.

The proclamation has been considered one of the most advanced agreements in regional politics, which makes it a solid starting point for the construction of a culture of peace that jointly confronts hegemonic policies and aggressions.

It is a tool for conflict resolution, to defend the sovereignty of our people against interventionism. It is also a legacy for future generations, since it contains the historical will to identify the region as peoples of peace, who advance common objectives, with the premise of unity in diversity.
