Mexico’s President, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, confirmed that he would not attend the Americas summit after the government of the United States president, Joe Biden, excluded the governments of Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua from participating in the summit.
President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador: “I will not attend the summit because not all American countries are invited and I believe in the need to change the policies that have been in place for centuries, exclusion, wanting to dominate for no reason, not respecting the sovereignty of the country, the independence of each country. There will be no America Summit if all the countries of the Americas do not participate.”
The Americas Summit opened in Los Angeles on Monday and is being held in the United States for the first time since 1994. At the White House, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said that the President of the United States, Joe Biden, remained firm in his decision to exclude Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua. .
Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre: “We just believe that dictators should not be invited. It is very. We have no regrets about that, and we will support our decision and the president will stay true to his principles.”
President Biden still plans to travel to Saudi Arabia in July to meet Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
