    Cuba: US exploiting its role as host country

The Cuban revolutionary government released a statement denouncing its exclusion from the Summit of the Americas, alongside Venezuela and Nicaragua, saying this exclusion "reflects the US' arrogance," its fear of hearing truths that are not to its liking, and its keenness on preventing attendees from discussing important and complex issues relevant to the Americas.

Cuba also slammed the US' misuse of its role as the host country, and its failure to heed the rightful demands of a number of governments to change this unacceptable, arbitrary stance.

The government's statement further said that there is not one reason that justifies the undemocratic, arbitrary exclusion of any country in this half of the world from partaking in this meeting.

"This is what the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean warned of" since the sixth summit in Cartagena de Indias, Columbia, in 2012.

Cuba also denounced the US government's exertion of unethical pressure, blackmail, and dirty tricks on a number of governments in order to dissuade them from not attending the summit in solidarity with Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua, stressing that such practices, which are the norm for imperialism, reflect its usual contempt for Latin American countries.

Regarding Mexico's stance, Cuba expressed its gratitude and respect for the legitimate and brave stance adopted by many countries in solidarity with Cuba, most notably that of Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.

The Cuban government also thanked the presidents of Bolivia and Honduras, as well as Argentina, for their stances, expressing hope that those who will attend the summit will prove that the US cannot treat the peoples of the region as it used to during the 20th century.

Due to Washington's failure to invite countries it views as undemocratic, Mexico leader Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador declared on Monday that he would be absent from the regional Summit of the Americas in the United States.

In his daily press conference, Obrador said he will not go to the summit adding that he thinks "it is necessary to change the policy that has been imposed on us for centuries: exclusion."
