The member countries of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America – People’s Trade Treaty (ALBA-TCP),
categorically reject the Press Release issued on May 18, 2016, by the General Secretary of the Organization of American States (OAS), Luis Almagro, and the systematic aggressions of whom occupies the General Secretariat of this organization against the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, its legitimate Government, and its people.
The member countries of ALBA-TCP, express our heartfelt solidarity with President Nicolás Maduro and his people,
and declare that the grievances against the Venezuelan leader invalidate the General Secretary to pronounce about any affair
related to the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, as his commentaries offend every single sovereign State.

Venezuela, threatening the right for development, peace and homeland of theb Venezuelan people.
The member countries of ALBA-TCP manifest our solidarity with the sister Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, with its President and its people, and reject the mediatic, economic, diplomatic and financial aggressions that seek to overthrow its legitimate Government.
The member countries of ALBA-TCP acknowledge the hard work of the Venezuelan Government in the promotion and protection of human rights, justice and peace, to contain the plan of international intervention intended against Venezuela,
threatening not only the stability of this sister nation, but our region’s stability as well.
Finally, the member countries of ALBA-TCP trust in the unbreakable will of the Venezuelan people, guided by the thinking of Simón Bolívar and his capacity to close lines in the face of this continued threat against the democratic stability of the country and the region.
