On Saturday in Argentina, at the request of the Unity Left Front and other organizations, there was a first protest in front of the United States Embassy in Buenos Aires and actions in other cities of the country.

This Trump attack in Venezuela has the same colonial intention as in Argentina, extorting the country with the debt and financing the Milei Government in the last electionwhich mortgages the future of the majority and seeks to attack the living conditions of workers through slave labor reform. Just as Venezuela demands “total control” of oil, in Argentina they made explicit the interest in the control of lithium, water and rare earths, among other strategic resources.
This shows that The fight in the country against Milei’s attack through the labor reform that it will seek to approve in February is part of the same fight against Trump’s imperialist advance. They come for natural resources and for greater exploitation and impoverishment of the working majorities. Give these discussions in the workplace and study, showing how The fight in Argentina against labor reform is directly linked to confronting imperialist interference in Venezuela; it is of vital importance to build a continental anti-imperialist movement.
It is necessary to weigh the enormous social force of the working class with an uprising throughout the region, imposing a continental general strike to defeat the colonialist escalation of the United States.
On the way to resume the best anti-imperialist traditions of the people of Latin America, it is necessary to be hundreds of thousands in the streets against this colonialist aggressiondemanding the release of Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores, within the framework of the fight to defeat this attack by Yankee imperialism. The working class of the continent is not starting from scratch, but already has a long tradition of mobilizations and struggle in the streets. In 2002, it was the Venezuelan working people themselves who defeated the attempted coup orchestrated between the right of that country and the United States, in a context of mobilizations in various countries in support.

At 5:00 p.m. columns of organizations and protesters began to arrive at the Plaza Italia area, close to the Yankee Embassy. Again, together with the militancy, The main representatives of the Left Unity Front were present. Among them national representative Myriam Bregman.
He Left Front was the driving force behind this Monday’s mobilization, like the one carried out last Saturday. It is also the only national alliance that has been denouncing this imperialist advance. on the region in recent months, as the militarism and aggressiveness of the Government of Donald Trump.

]That is the perspective that must be deepened. Is The broader denunciation is urgent, confronting the discourse of the global and continental rightwhich calls this brutal interference an “act in favor of freedom.” But, at the same time, It is necessary to promote the most massive mobilization against this aggression. As the PTS-FITU deputy, Myriam Bregman, said, “we must recover anti-imperialist, anti-colonial consciousness. To stop Trump’s hand we must mobilize, we must organize, we must fight. Today Pérez Esquivel said that we have to generate a continental, international day, where we express that we are all rebelling against this policy. And I think it is very important to start building it.”
