00:00On Tuesday in Mar del Plata, Argentina commemorates the 20th anniversary of the historic summit
00:06that said no to the FTAA and stopped the most ambitious free trade project of the United
00:12States on the continent.
00:14The Free Trade Area of the Americas, FTAA, was the most ambitious project of the United
00:20States to materialize the Monroe Doctrine in the Americas.
00:24The treaty was meant to guarantee approximately 800 million consumers for US companies, control
00:31over national resources and political control over 34 countries in the continent.
00:38The note to the FTAA was the seed for the creation of Union of South American Nations, UNASUR,
00:44and also was the strength of a region that in those years, working together, was able
00:50to regain a sovereign position, reduce poverty and inequality.
00:53Today, citizens and social organizations gathered to discuss the historical relevance
00:58of that struggle that brought together the most important leaders of the region and the
01:04lessons learned for current challenges.
01:07It is a time when imperialism is once again attempting to turn our continent into its backyard.
01:22I believe it began with a very painful manifestation that is an insult to all Latin Americans, which
01:30is the ruthless persecution of immigrants within the territory of the United States of America
01:36itself.
01:38These were and are acts that offend the dignity of the Latin American people.
01:43Each of those persecuted, each of those imprisoned in the United States, is a blow to the dignity
01:50of all Latin Americans.
01:58The minister of government of the province of Buenos Aires, Carlos Bianco, stated that Javier
02:03Millet's political strategies have failed many times, and now he is turning to the United States to intervene in the country's economy and geopolitics.
02:11The intervention of the United States in Argentina has become the guarantor and master of the Argentine
02:20government's economic program.
02:22Today, economic decisions are no longer made in the Casa Rosada, which some would say is fortunately, but I say no.
02:34Today, decisions about Argentina's economic program are made on Wall Street, not even in Washington.
02:41President Miley's economic program has been so disastrous, failing so many times that the United States had to step in after he burned his bridges with the IMF, known as the lender of last resort.
02:59When we smoked and burned the IMF's dollars, we had to turn to the United States for direct intervention, not only in the economy, but also in Argentina's politics and geopolitics.
03:14And the first executive secretary of the Continental Social Alliance, Hector de la Cueva, emphasized that Donald Trump's strategies are an attack on the peoples of America and the Caribbean.
03:28Just like the FDA, Trump's strategy is an attack on all the peoples of the North and South.
03:34And that Continental Alliance achieved a diversity of social movements, but also an impressive cultural, linguistic, and geographical diversity, because there were social movements, yes, from Canada to Argentina, passing through all the countries.
03:52And it was an exercise in tolerance, and it was an exercise in plurality, and it was an exercise in understanding unity.
04:04In this context, Venezuela celebrated the 20th anniversary of the defeat of the U.S. project of domination in the region.
04:11In a statement on Telegram, Foreign Minister Ivan Hill posted,
04:15On November 4, 20 years ago, Mar del Plata became the emblematic setting for the reaffirmation of the sovereignty of Latin American peoples against the attempts of U.S. interference during the People's Summit.
04:27In this context, the fate of the infamous Free Trade Area of the America's FTA treaty was sealed.
04:35This U.S. proposal was intended to benefit transnational corporations at the expense of our national industries.
04:42He'll finally emphasize,
04:44He'll finally emphasize,
04:45We were encouraged to look to the North, ignoring the wealth and potential of our brothers in the South.
04:51It was Commander Hugo Chavez who, with his historic cry of Alca, Alca, Alcarajo, FTA, go to hell, put an end to this new form of interference.
05:02From that moment on, a new era of regional integration began in our patria grande,
05:08by strengthening the mechanisms of economic and political autonomy of our peoples.
