The application of coercive measures against the countries of the region was strongly rejected in the final declaration of the XI Economic Complementation Council of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of the Americas-People's Trade Agreement (ALBA-TCP).
The meeting, held recently in the city of Sucre, Plurinational State of Bolivia, emphasized the need for regional integration in pursuit of the economic and trade development of member countries. In this regard, they declared themselves in permanent session with the objective of preparing a work plan to be presented at the next Summit of Heads of State and Government of the Alliance.
The declaration also calls for the strengthening of the Alliance's principles, such as self-determination and solidarity in integral rural development, as well as greater collaboration among member countries for post-pandemic recovery.
