". The EU may have tried to create the impression at the ΕU-Latin America Summit that it is different from the USA, but there is little to choose between them. The only differences between the EU and the USA are the product of the imperialist standoff between them. Not a word about the joint communiqué on the exclusion of Cuba by the USA, on the breakdown of the peace process in Colombia or on the USA's 'Columbia' plan and how it intends to extend it. Not a word about the attempted in Venezuela or any compunction on the part of the ΕU to defend its initial position on those behind it. In addition, it clearly supports government anti-grass roots measures in Argentina and fears that it will break its IMF fetters. Clear efforts are also being made to make it even easier for European capital to penetrate Latin America. The ΕU has confined itself to proposing neo-liberal policies and free trade agreements with these countries, instead of helping them build up their own economies, and making serious efforts to integrate them in the so-called war against terrorism, turning a deaf ear to the voices of the people at the Port Alegre forum and the parliamentary forum in Sao Paulo. The mass rallies in Madrid demonstrated that people are acutely exasperated with and determined to fight Europe Inc. The EU has nothing to offer the people of Latin America, given that there is not one area in which it counterbalances the USA."@en1
