“I regret that not all of us who should have been present were able to be present, in this environment so conducive to debate”, this is how he started his speech Alberto Fernandez about which he later expressed his deep concern about the current crisis in Latin America.

“We definitely would have wanted another Summit of the Americas. The silence of the absent challenges us. So that this does not happen again, I would like to make it clear for the future that the fact of being the host country of the Summit does not grant the ability to impose a “right of admission” on the member countries of the continent,” said the president.

Along these same lines, the president considered that organizations such as the OAS must be rebuilt, since “a single thought cannot be imposed in a world that demands symphonic harmony in the face of common dramas.”

“The OAS, if it wants to be respected and return to being the regional political platform for which it was created, must be restructured by immediately removing those who run it,” Fernandez asserted, pointing at the Regional Development Bank.
