Venezuela Finland organised two solidarity events for the Honduran resistance movement during the last
few weeks.
Last month, a delegation from Hands Off Venezuela/Bolivarian Society of
Quebec had a meeting with Elio Vitriago, the Venezuelan consul-general
in Montreal.
The delegation, consisting of a few young
Canadian HOV/SBQ activists and Jorge Martín, International Secretary of
HOV, was warmly welcomed by the entire staff of the Venezuelan
consulate, and by Mr. Vitriago himself.
Canada has stood almost alone on the international stage, going so far as to say that Zelaya should not return back to Honduras. This should not come as a huge shock for Canadians as the Canadian state has been pursuing an increasingly interventionist role in Latin American affairs for a while now.
The Second Latin American Meeting of Worker-Recovered Factories took place on June 25-27. Over two hundred workers gathered at the National Library in Caracas to discuss perspectives for the occupied factories movement internationally.
