BRUSSELS: European, Latin American and Caribbean leaders on Tuesday failed to agree on a statement holding Russia to account for the war in Ukraine, highlighting their differences over the crisis.
"But clearly Ukraine is a matter of great importance to Europe and the world - other conflicts too, in the world," he said. Summit host Charles Michel, the president of the European Council, said Europe would always reiterate its determination to"defend Ukraine against this aggression by Russia and if you look at this declaration ... there are a number of points that refer to that situation."Gonsalves played down this omission in colourful terms."There's a reaffirmation of positions and a ticking of the box.
Diplomats said Nicaragua, Cuba and Venezuela had opposed language criticising Russia, and other countries - while agreeing to support Ukraine's sovereignty - had stressed that different crises and conflicts were also worthy of the world's attention. The leaders acknowledged that CELAC had raised the issue of reparations, and said they"profoundly regret the untold suffering inflicted on millions of men, women and children as a result of the trans-Atlantic slave trade ... a crime against humanity".
"But two wrongs don't make a right. What Russia is doing in Ukraine is wrong and it's really important that we're clear about that here," he said.In the opening session on Monday, Gonsalves cited the crisis in Haiti, the Palestinian struggle for statehood and various wars in Africa as deserving of European attention.
