The CELAC (Community of Latin American and Caribbean States) held a special meeting of foreign ministers to condemn the US military deployment in the Caribbean Sea.

On September 1st, local time, the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States held a special meeting of foreign ministers to address the serious concerns raised by the recent military movements of the United States in the Caribbean region. Venezuelan Foreign Minister Hill sternly demanded the immediate withdrawal of the military forces deployed by the United States in the Caribbean Sea. Hill pointed out that the United States has deployed eight warships carrying over 1200 missiles and 4200 specially trained soldiers, preparing to invade Venezuela. The US has also sent nuclear submarines, which blatantly violate the denuclearization principles stipulated in the Treaty of Tlatelolco. In response to the US accusations against the Venezuelan government and President Maduro leading so-called "drug trafficking groups," Hill refuted this as a "ridiculous excuse" and accused the US of using it to justify its "abnormal and aggressive" military deployment in the region. The Nicaraguan representative at the meeting opposed the use of force and advocated for dialogue and respect for sovereignty. The Cuban representative condemned the US nuclear submarines as a direct security threat and demanded an immediate halt to such actions. Colombian Foreign Minister Rosa Veravecesio explicitly opposed the "logic of intervention" and emphasized that the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States should be an important platform for diplomacy and multilateral solutions.
