Quotes

• We restore bilateral relations (with Venezuela) to strengthen strategic ties for the good of our peoples.

• Today we find ourselves facing a wide-ranging, systemic capitalist crisis that increasingly endangers the life of humanity and the planet. We should not only reflect on the economic, social, food, climate, energy, water, and trade crises, but also identify with clarity the origin, in order to change a system that reproduces domination, exploitation, and exclusion of the large majorities, that generates the concentration of wealth in a few hands, and that prioritizes the production and reproduction of capital over the production and reproduction of life. Alongside the wide-ranging, systemic crisis of capitalism, we see the final gasp of the unipolar world. But unfortunately we are seeing the gradual deterioration of the multilateral system, because of the whims of the capitalist powers that will not accept the existence of a multipolar world with a balance of power.
  • Luis Arce (2022) cited in: "At UN, Bolivia presents revolutionary 14-point socialist program to transform world." in Multipolarista, 28 September 2022

• We do not agree with talking about climate change because it is something that seems to necessarily happen. No, this is a climate crisis caused by the capitalist system that has done everything to bring us to this situation. Humanity is at risk and unfortunately the United Nations has not yet come to any concrete agreement to resolve this problem.
