Hands Off the People of Venezuela
The military attack by the United States on Venezuela constitutes yet another
crime of imperialism against the peoples. It is a continuation of the interventions,
blockades, coups, and wars unfolding across the globe, which bathe countries in
blood and uproot entire populations, in the name of monopoly profits and
imperialist rivalries.
The United States and its allies have no concern for “democracy,” nor for the
pretexts they periodically invoke. What they seek is control over South America’s
natural resources, over Venezuela’s oil reserves and production, and the
imposition of their own domination over the working class and the peoples, within
the framework of the implementation of a new “Monroe Doctrine,” which
foreshadows an escalation of confrontation with China for overall supremacy in
the region.
The fairy tale of Trump as a “peacemaker” and a “diabolically good” figure
collapses spectacularly, a myth recycled by the current New Democracy
government, previous governments, and the parties of capital. They speak of
“stability” and “security” while supporting, justifying, and actively participating in
the imperialist plans of the United States and NATO, which bleed peoples from
Venezuela to the Middle East, turning our own country into a springboard for war
and making our people a target.
PAME expresses its solidarity with the working class, the trade unions, and the
people of Venezuela, who are fighting against US imperialist intervention and for
their right to determine their own country’s future, free from foreign
interventions and blackmail.
We call on trade unions, Regional Unions, and Federations to condemn the US
military intervention and to express their solidarity with the people of Venezuela
and their just struggle against imperialist intervention in their homeland.
