“I reaffirm my unwavering commitment to peace. This 2024 marks the tenth anniversary of the proclamation of Latin America and the Caribbean as a zone of peace, ratified at the second CELAC summit held in Havana, Cuba,” he said.

He urged the member countries of CELAC to ratify their commitment for the good of Latin American and Caribbean peoples, according to a note from the Ministry of People's Power for Communion and Information (MPPPCI).

It should be noted that the pro tempore presidency will last until 2025.
