According to the politician, the summit was a failure for Washington and the Organization of American States.

According to him, during 20 of the 22 speeches, questions were asked about the reasons for the absence of three countries from the event.

Earlier, Argentine President Alberto Fernandez at the Summit of the Americas reproached the United States for its unwillingness to invite all the countries of the region to take part in it. In turn, Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador refused to participate in the US-sponsored summit due to the decision of the administration of American leader Joe Biden not to invite Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua to the event.
