The OAS supports war crimes in Palestine & Colombia

OAS Secretary General Luis Almagro: Silent on Colombia and supportive of Israeli apartheid and violence. He must go now!

ACT NOW

Dear friend,

OAS Secretary General Luis Almagro keeps siding with the oppressors. He’s said nothing about Colombia, where at least 39 protestors have been murdered by security forces and another 379 have been disappeared. Yet he can’t stop tweeting in support of Israel - without a mention of the atrocities committed against Palestinians. 

After one of the deadliest nights in Colombia earlier this month, Almagro held a meeting the next day to talk about Venezuela. After thousands of people around the world rallied in solidarity with Palestine over the weekend, Almagro designated Hamas a terrorist organization. 

Almagro supports war crimes in Palestine and crimes against humanity in Colombia. Join us in demanding his resignation!

The OAS charter claims it is meant to promote peace, justice, solidarity and independence - but it does none of that. What it does promote is U.S. foreign policy, which is no surprise, as 60% of OAS funding comes from our tax dollars. 

It’s no exaggeration to say that the OAS is an extension of the State Department. Almagro led the charge for regime change in Venezuela, even seating fake Venezuelan diplomats from the fake government the U.S. tried to install. He’s pushing for regime change in Nicaragua. He routinely condemns Cuba. He supports Haitian dictator Jovenel Moise. He’s remained silent on the violent repression of protests in Colombia, Chile and Ecuador. These are all positions the OAS shares with the U.S.

Enough is enough! Almagro has blood on his hands and he must go! Click here to demand his resignation!

At CODEPINK, our campaign against Almagro began when he played an instrumental role in the coup in Bolivia in 2019, leading to massacres and a right-wing coup government that oppressed its population for nearly a year. Even after the people took their government back, Almagro is still at it, criticizing the new government for prosecuting the coup regime for its crimes against humanity.

In radical solidarity,
Leonardo, Michelle, Teri, and Medea

P.S. Join us Thursday, May 20, for a discussion of the book Viviremos: Venezuela Vs. Hybrid War with its editors and authors. For the Venezuelan people the word “Viviremos” (we will live) is a forceful proclamation to uphold and defend their dignity and sovereignty in the face of a brutal hybrid war carried out by the United States and its allies. Click here to register!
