During his recent participation in the VIII Summit of Heads of State and Government of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), Peru's Foreign Affairs Minister Javier Gonzalez-Olaechea called on member countries for more concrete actions.

"It is time to adopt decisive agreements that lead us towards development in freedom," he stated.

At this event, which took place in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, the Peruvian government official indicated that political forums "must also serve to delve deeper into the objective causes of our institutional, economic, and social gaps so as to reduce our differences."

In that regard, the minister indicated that the 33 States gathered at the summit "should practice a more reflective leaders' dialogue so as to avoid arriving at our meetings with texts that are as extensive as they are repetitive."

"Let us ask ourselves if we do enough so that our less favored populations have peace in their stomachs, and if we recognize ourselves as morally responsible for their prostration, as leaders who, for the great majorities, tend to declare a lot and resolve little," he expressed, addressing presidents and high-ranking authorities present at this event.

Furthermore, the Peruvian Cabinet member indicated that the international reality "faces us with new wars that we must reject because they openly contravene the San Francisco Charter."

Minister Gonzalez-Olaechea also said the peaceful world that we want to build is only possible if we categorically reject "all the methods and purposes of terrorism, transnational organized crime —which by the way enjoys good health and complicity within our borders— if we mutilate the octopus of corruption."

Moreover, he deemed as important to prevail in the peaceful resolution of conflicts through decisive dialogue, as well as the rejection of the involvement of children, women and the elderly in armed conflicts, and the condemnation of the tragedy of millions of people subjected to forced migrations without the effective protection of their rights.

Meetings



In addition, the Peruvian government official held meetings with the Foreign Affairs Minister of Brazil, Mauro Vieira; as well as with his counterparts of Costa Rica, Arnoldo Andre; Guatemala, Carlos Martinez; Jamaica, Kamina J. Smith; Trinidad and Tobago, Amery Browne; and the Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs of Uruguay, Nicolas Albertoni.
