PRESS RELEASE BringThemBack: The Caribbean stands together against external threats and for lasting peace
As part of the actions to denounce and condemn the attacks recently perpetrated against Venezuela by the United States, political and civil organizations, jurists, and solidarity movements from Antigua and Barbuda, Argentina, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Canada, Cuba, Curacao, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, Martinique, Palestine (From the Gaza Strip), Paraguay, Dominican Republic, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Saint Lucia, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela, among other regions of the world, joined an initiative to concentrate ideas and energies in defense of the proclamation of Latin America and the Caribbean as a Zone of Peace.
This event called “1st Regional Conference: The Voices of the Caribbean in Defense of Venezuela and International Law,” featured the participation of more than 180 political and social actors from the aforementioned countries who included among their action proposals the development of strategies from a perspective of analysis and study of the different threats that put the region at risk, especially in light of the current situation where the people of Venezuela were affected by the bombing of January 03, 2026, which resulted in the kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro Moros and the First Lady Cilia Flores.
Caribbean contributions for peace
The meeting served to articulate proposals and actions between social and solidarity movements of the Caribbean, unifying criteria in the face of external threats that seek to destabilize the region. The main purpose was to promote regional cohesion and the defense of peace through public positions from each of the nations in the region.
Each of the illustrious interventions coincided in the need to build an international solidarity network that allows for a defense of the sovereignty of our nations, as well as to implement an action plan that seeks to influence the reformulation of the foreign policy of each of our countries.
Participants spoke out in unison to denounce the warlike actions of last January 03 carried out by the government of Donald Trump, leading to the death of more than 100 people and the unlawful kidnapping of the constitutional President of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro Moros and the First Lady Cilia Flores.
This conference is part of a series of coordinated activities that include presentations by experts in International Law, talks, and sessions of analysis. Through this work plan, the aim will be to generate legal instruments and spaces for thoughtful discussions that ensure the unity and integrity of the entire Caribbean.

Although I wish this group and decisions made by it could carry some weight it cannot. The leaders of the Caribbean will not come out and denounce the USA attack on Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro. They are a bunch of greedy, selfish cowards generally speaking. They all played up to Venezuela and benefited from its assistance. Take for example when the hurricane decimated Barbuda , it was Venezuela that lead the evacuation. When we bought out WIOC it was Venezuela that made it successful and sustainable. The PETRO CARIBE subsidy and the social programs attached to the vulnerable it was Venezuela. Well to try and say what Cuba assistance has been will take an entire book. To name a few the medical assistance, engineering assistance, free scholarships to thousands of Caribbean citizens, in fact I am sure hundreds are there right now. During COVID 19 when our own were so afraid to attend to our sick Covid patients- it was the Cuban nurses we depended upon. Their agriculture assistance and technicians, their sport coaches, sports medicine. It is because of Cuban scholarships why so many picky headed, poor grassroots Antiguans have become doctors and other professionals and have risen themselves and their families from poverty to middle and upper class.
Despite all of this instead of standing in solidarity in vanity as a people and the first announcement of Donald Trump we threw the Cubans under the bus. The nurse and medical personnel in Antigua were deported back to Cuba overnight. Hey it’s not Antigua alone mark you, you are all guilty of the same. If chatter bax GB did not open his mouth and tell the people that he signed an agreement a to accept third country deportees, none of the other cowards would say nothing. They did all these treasonous nonsense to hold on to their US visas. Yes it’s about them and their families. Then got slapped with 40,000.00 EC Bonds.
After that bond announcement, none of them had the testicular fortitude to withdraw from the agreement. They are afraid that the US will freeze their stolen millions and billions US accounts and investigate and jail them like Maduro. So the leaders in the Caribbean will not say a single word in support of this, neither individually or as a group. Our fore fathers fought for our freedom. Physical freedom, financial freedom, religious liberty, economic freedom and most of all mental freedom. Today the so call educated leaders, with degrees, masters and doctorates are enslaved by greed and are leading us back into slavery. “ bo time to edit , the message is clear”
Correction-not vanity but unity and no bo time but no time…
The strangest thing about this whole Venezuela saga, is all of a sudden the rapid destruction and the killing of the crew of these so-called drug boats, seems to be over. The US have now completely eliminated the dangerous drug fentanyl from entering it’s shores, so the US drug trade is now over. It’s a beautiful day in the US.
Caribbean organizations need to shut the hell up and be happy the US is keeping China and Russia from becoming dominant…Caribbean leaders cannot protect democracy…They will blindly work with Venezuela regardless if he is legit or not, regardless if he is violating human rights……Caribbean leaders basically said we know ur shady we know ur not legal we know ur doing bad things but u have oil……If y’all so want him back go get him and tell America to sit back and let Russia and China have access to the fuel they really need….
Carvaa….Sigh alot of u bubble heads still think those boats were fishing boats….NATO mainly the UK was also giving Trump intel on Maduro’s drug operations….Those boats had on drugs they were not random targets and no the war on drugs is not over ofcourse not….The Cartels don’t have Maduro to allow them to do operations from his ports anymore that’s what has ended….
