I’M pleased to be speaking at the upcoming annual Latin America Conference. This is a highlight of the progressive calendar here in Britain, and a vital event to support socialist parties, workers, trade unions and progressive movements in Latin America who are standing up to both neoliberalism and hostility from the Trump administration, and standing together for a better world.
At the current time, US hostility to Venezuela, Nicaragua and Cuba is increasing dramatically with Trump as president.
This hostility comes alongside his backing for the far-right governments in Brazil and Colombia, and we need to be clear that it is up to the people of Latin America to determine their own future, not Donald Trump.
