On November 8-9, 2025, the social component of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) met in Santa Marta, Colombia, as the CELAC-EU Summit took place on November 9-10. The purpose of the CELAC-EU Summit was to enhance strategic cooperation between Latin America and the Caribbean and the European Union in a time of heightened United States militarism targeting the Bolivarian peoples of Venezuela and now Colombia. A major theme of the summit was the unique geostrategic and historic role that Latin America and the Caribbean as a region have in the creation and strengthening of a multipolar world free of the dictates of the over 200-year-old Monroe Doctrine.

We had participants of the Popular Steering Committee for a Zone of Peace in Our Americas (PSC) in these meetings and participation at all levels amplifying the call from the masses to unify our struggles against our common enemy - the US/EU/NATO Axis of Domination.

CELAC-EU Declaration Plagued By Objections From US Allies

November 11, 2025 Orinoco Tribune. Educate! Caribbean, CELAC, European Union (EU), Latin America, Zone of Peace

On Sunday, the Fourth Summit between the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) and the European Union (EU) issued a joint declaration. The 52-paragraph document was signed by 32 of the 33 CELAC countries. Venezuela was the only country that decided not to sign it. At the end of the document, seven countries—Argentina, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Panama, Paraguay, and Trinidad and Tobago—presented formal objections to critical paragraphs. They distanced themselves from positions reaffirming the region as a Zone of Peace, condemning the genocide in Gaza, and demanding an end to the economic blockade against Cuba, among others. The declaration also includes paragraph number 14 regarding the Ukrainian conflict, which appears to respond more to the interests of the European Union than to those of the Latin American countries. It was not questioned by any of the signatories.

Grenada – Forward Ever: The Caribbean As A Zone Of Peace

November 6, 2025 Kwabena Dennot Nyack, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Grenada, History, Revolution, the Caribbean, Zone of Peace

I am writing from a small country that once dared to imagine a different world. Grenada’s 1979 Revolution (the Revo’) offered a vision of dignity, solidarity and people’s power that still resonates today. Described by a 2019 Tribune Magazine article as “…a socialist revolution in the tiny Caribbean island of Grenada threatened to upturn the world economic order…”, the Revolution sought to bring about real change for its people and the world. When we said “Forward Ever, Backward Never”, it was not a slogan but a declaration of faith in our own humanity.

Political leaders from across Latin America and the Caribbean condemned the US military buildup in the hemisphere and issued a call to defend “sovereignty, security, and lasting peace” in the region.

The legislators and political leaders warned that the United States’ bombing campaign represents a direct threat to the region’s status as “Zone of Peace.”

On Friday, Venezuela’s ambassador to the United Nations, Samuel Moncada, alerted the UN Security Council that Venezuela strongly believes a US military attack is imminent. He characterized the situation as the latest aggression in decades-long attempts to oust first President Hugo Chávez and now President Nicolás Maduro. “The plan is clear,” he said during an emergency meeting. “It is once again about executing the operation that already failed: overthrowing the legitimate and constitutional President of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro Moros, to install a puppet regime and turn our country into a colony.” When questioned by the press, Moncada elaborated on the sense of urgency.

Venezuelan Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino has reported this Thursday, October 2, that at least five US F-35 fighter jets have flown over the Caribbean Sea near the Venezuelan border, an action described as a provocation and a threat to national security. Hours later, the Venezuelan Ministries of Defense and Foreign Affairs released a joint communiqué formally condemning the incursion, which it said occurred approximately 75 kilometers (about 47 miles) off the Venezuelan coast within the Maiquetía Flight Information Region (FIR). “We have detected within the Venezuelan Comprehensive Defense System […] more than five vectors with flight characteristics of 400 knots and flying at an altitude of 35,000 feet,” Padrino said during a briefing. “What does that indicate? They are combat aircraft that US imperialism has dared to bring close to Venezuelan shores.”

Not only on the military front, but also on the diplomatic front.” One of his most forceful announcements was his decision to withdraw from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), criticizing the militaristic logic that, he said, has supported crimes against humanity.
