Defend Venezuelan Sovereignty! No Sanctions! No Coup d'État!

    The Kingston Peace Council condemns, in the strongest terms possible, recent actions by Western governments to intervene in Venezuela. The orchestrated campaign to remove the elected government in Venezuela and replace it with a puppet authority willing to serve U.S. economic and political interests has now reached a critical moment, one which may well end in a bloody civil war, a foreign military invasion, or both.

    That this ‘regime change’ operation has been built on a mountain of lies, is hypocritical to its very core, and violates every principle of international law – including the UN and OAS Charters – doesn’t seem to bother in the least its architects in Washington or Ottawa. But it should alarm everyone who values peace and social justice, and who wants to avert a real humanitarian catastrophe. US President Donald Trump has openly suggested that military intervention is on the table, which blatantly violates international law. Likewise, in a recent interview on Fox Business, US National Security Advisor John Bolton declared that US intervention would be a benefit for American oil companies. The Kingston Peace Council demands that the Canadian government refrain from further participation in attempts at regime change. The facts are simple: the capitalists who set the agenda of the United States government want to control Venezuela’s oil supply; these people want to pillage and profit from a right wing Venezuela that privatizes the oil industry, intensifies extraction of gold and mineral resources, deregulates environmental protections, imposes austerity, eliminates the social production of housing, and much more.

    The time to act is now, to stop this attempted right-wing coup d’état and prevent foreign military intervention which would only bring great hardship, suffering and loss of life on the Venezuelan people!
