7 Special Envoys* who represent Governments of heterogeneous and diverse political ideas, some with antagonisms between them, but who, thanks to the perception of a better future through union, were able to sit down and overcome their differences to discuss matters of common interest.\u00a0It was noteworthy the active participation of the representatives of the six Eastern Caribbean States: Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.<\/p><div id=\"antig-1220339319\" class=\"antig-content_4 antig-entity-placement\"><a

without ruling out its dissolution, and to build a true Community of Latin American and Caribbean States, with reference to the European Union.\u00a0It also raises a question of great importance in this context: that of how the relationship with the United States should be, in particular, in a world characterized by the emergence of rivalries between powers and large economic blocs.\u00a0In this regard, the Mexican President affirms that \u201cit is time for a new coexistence among all the countries of the Americas because the model imposed more than two centuries ago is exhausted, it has no future or way out, it no longer benefits anyone.\u00a0We must put aside the dilemma of joining the United States or opposing ourselves defensively\u201d.\u00a0&#8220;It is time to [&#8230;] dialogue

integration with sovereignty that Mexico has put into practice in the conception and application of its trade agreement with the United States and Canada could result of great interest.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p><div id=\"antig-4249638252\" class=\"antig-content_3 antig-entity-placement\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiguabarbudaculinarymonth.com\/\" aria-label=\"CM key_WEB

The multiple belongings of Mexico, being part of North America, Latin America and at the same time a Caribbean country, make it a kind of hinge to build consensus.\u00a0It is true that there are different positions on some issues on the regional or international agenda, but, as the Secretary of Foreign Affairs of Mexico, Marcelo Ebrard, has pointed out: \u201cif someone thinks that the requirement for cooperation is unanimity, they should say goodbye to the International cooperation,\u00a0what would be the meaning of multilateralism if we are not going to respect the principles of

cooperation in the framework of the COVID-19 pandemic, and stated that for a year and a half the countries of the region have shown solidarity and support.\u00a0\u201cThe great lesson is that if we do not act together as one voice, no one is going to take care of us, no one will wonder if Latin America already has vaccines&#8221;.\u00a0Ebrard also pointed out that if we do not act together \u201cit

Canada,\u00a0creating a mechanism that reflects the interests of all the States of the region.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is time to rethink the kind of union that we want in our Latin America and
