I look forward to a strong bipartisan vote, hopefully as early as next week," - Senator Lindsey Graham.

🇺🇸🇨🇴⚡️- “Among the things we discussed, President Trump and I, was the disagreement we had regarding his vision of the relationship between the United States and Latin America.

I said in my letter written to Trump at the beginning of his administration, and to Biden personally, that an American alliance could be established if the great annual potential for clean energy in South America were harnessed: 1400 GW, while the U.S. demand for energy that solves the issue of oil and coal is 840 GW annually; that is, Latin America can achieve 100% of the U.S. energy matrix, and that would be the biggest step in the fight to stop the climate crisis in favor of Life.

That means global peace and democracy.

Using Latin America solely for oil would lead to the destruction of international law and therefore to barbarism and a third world war.

The peace of the world would be put in true risk, and we would move to irreversible climate collapse with the extinction of life.

The clean energy potential of Latin America becomes a reality with an investment of 500 billion dollars, which the United States has at this moment.

That is my proposal. Based on Peace, Life, and Global Democracy.” - President of Colombia Gustavo Petro.
