Oh yeah because the us loves democracy in South America
It’s a great time to feel proud of being brown 🇲🇽 viva Mexico being Mexican American I’m proud of having atleast one president who makes you feel proud of beeing from Mexico 🙏
Why dont the americas host their own summit and not invite the us? Why we always let them call the shots?
yet fossil joe will meet the crown prince. hahahaha
even if u don't like them keeping them away from the gathering u think there gonna feel any better love is the only way
It's totally correct. Such countries massacre their people
Talk of unity, but poor countries have to flee to America. See you've been doing corruption is still a poor country.
As a Trinidadian and Tobagonian, I agree with the Mexican president. Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua are part of the americas and they should be invited. What Biden did is very stupid and arrogant.
Mexico, El Salvador didn't go.
BEING THE COUNTRY HOSTING THE SUMMIT DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE PERMIT TO EXCLUDE THIS IS NOT A BIRTHDAY PARTY IS THE SUMMIT OF THE AMERICAS. ( LET'S TALK DEMOCRACY BUT LET'S EXCLUDE THE ONE'S THAT DON'T THINK LIKE US ) 😂😂😂.
Will George Soros be the featured speaker.?
If USA wanted, they could develop their neighbours not as much, but almost equal…. You (people in the US) ARE great hypocrite…(!)
Don't worry my brothers and sisters, a great leader is coming, who would be equal to you and to the USA…..(!!!)
if everyone is assessed at the highest moral standards then i think there will be only a handful of countries that can attend a summit. looks like many countries will begin snubbing the US, sad to see that.
The United States loses many countries that could be great allies, but as they are treated with arrogance and contempt, it is a country that points out more problems than solutions for our continent, countries like China occupy this vacuum. Most of Latin America is not even an ally of China, but it is already our main trading partner and it will only increase. Here in Brazil, we have the perception that the priority for the United States is not the continent itself, but the Europeans, Russia and China, and that is why American leadership is declining in the region.
Biden has made a lot of good moves.
But, this is not one of them.
A summit is usually between countries that DON'T get along. US & Soviet Union had summits, for instance.
Not inviting those countries is against the spirit of summits.
Inviting a country does not mean we endorse their politics, policies, or actions.
A summit with only countries you agree with — is just a party.
It is NOT a true summit.
Not inviting Nicaragua is really stupid.
How can you have ANY discussion about Central America and immigration from that area without including Nicaragua??
I doubt Mexico would care if Venezuela wasn't invited.
Cuba?? not sure. But, I doubt they would care about Cuba either.
Nicaragua, though, is another matter.
It MUST be invited.
Or why have a summit?
This is not a summit of the Americas more like US summit since more than half of the countries showing up are European lol what a fail.
Who cares if Mexican president don’t show up bring back all the American companies that are in Mexico and let Cuba and Venezuela help Mexico the president is collecting from all them drug traffickers any ways they don’t need the USA 🇺🇸 help‼️💯
Check out the Answer AMLO! Gave today morning to ted Cruz , Rubio and Mendez🤥!! all USA senators . Who said that AMLO works for the cartels! This is why we like AMLO he says it like it is ! He put those corrupted people in check✅. Epic answer serio💯👍😁💪🎆
Today we're sending Bidden down to take all that virginity and have some chopping stores open! And then we're coming for NBClinton liars!
So they exclude those country because they are dictatorships, but in the middle east, the US has allies that are worst governments.
are these countries not part of the americas…? why wouldn't they be invited
Nice to see a president from the Americas with some eduction and morals. Take note US.
Mexican president is a traitor to his own people , helps the cartel and gains wealth by getting money from the cartels
I'm with the Mexican president ✌️
First it was the leaders of the UAE & Saudi Arabia ignoring his calls & now the president of Mexico boycotting this summit hosted by him. Sleepy Joe taking yet another L🤣😂
The United States of America needs to cut off ties with Mexico and do less business with Mexico
You couldn’t pay me enough to be in attendance at this abysmal conference with cackling Hyena and Chiden. These two clowns have our country in a nosedive. Hate them and hate what Dems have done to our great nation.
THE WHOLE OF LATIN AMERICA SUPPORTS AMLO ON THIS…
We need to change approach to the Americas for good, things are different, world is different stop using dictatorship laws ( no more sanctions to the people , they always suffer the consequences of their governments) and respect human rights.
At the very bottom of the 2022 list was North Korea, which was given a score of 13.92. Next was Eritrea at 19.62, followed by Iran, Turkmenistan and Myanmar, where Reporters Without Borders says press freedom has been set back by 10 years since the military coup there in 2021.ALL USA ALLIES BUT THEY STARVE CUBA TO DEATH.
SOA/WHINSEC-trained soldiers are the military muscle that keeps in place a system guaranteeing profits for the elites—and exploitation for the poor. Many immigrants to the United States are victims of U.S.-sponsored military training and atrocities in Latin America.
Free Julian Assange and we will believe u that USA is a democracy,
did you invite the Spaniards? to check on their colonies? forgot the F pope too/When the Spanish first arrived in the Americas at the end of the 15th century, it’s estimated there were about 50 million people living in the New World. A few hundred years later, there were less than 2 million indigenous people left. Was this the world’s greatest genocide?
Hello from Asia…the US didsnt even bother to clean up the city for such a large scale Summit…
So much for being "leader of the free world". Cracks are now showing even in the American Empire's own part of the hemisphere.
What political party is he part of ?
He leans on the left ..
👉👉👉“ The name is an acronym for the Movimiento Regeneración Nacional (National Regeneration Movement), and means brown-skinned in Spanish.[16][17] It also alludes to Mexico's Catholic national patroness: the Virgin of Guadalupe, known as 'La Morena” 👈👈👈👈👉

North America belongs too Northern Tribal Natives, not Aztec/Inca/Olmec
Good job mexico from nepal
respect to 🇲🇽 president and people
if he could get the rest of south america to boycott sneaking across the US border taxpayers would save billions every year
The true emerging leader of the western hemisphere is not in the exclusive club in Washington DC/Ravenna, , that much is becoming clear.
MY PRESIDENT HAS BALLS…..WE ARE WITH YOU
VIVA MEXICO CABRONES Y MEXICANOS AL GRITO DE GUERRA
