Evo Morales: I want to declare myself as a marxist and communist,
let's see if the OAS expels me

April 16, 2009 – During his intervention at the VII ALBA Summit,
Bolivian president Evo Morales recalled the 1962 documents of the
Organisation of American States (OAS) that resulted in Cuba being
expelled from the organization, and outlined the importance of
reflecting over the motives of that expulsion.


The resolution indicates that the adherence of any member country to
Marxism-Leninism, and the association of any member government of the
organization with the communist bloc, broke the unity and solidarity
of the hemisphere. Therefore, given that the government of Cuba
identified itself as Marxist Leninist, it was incompatible with the
purpose of the OAS and was therefore excluded from participating.


“Cuba was expelled for being Leninist, Marxist, communist. I want to
say to the members of the OAS, here, I want to declare myself Marxist,
Leninist, communist, socialist and now let them expel me, I want them
to expel me from the OAS, it is unbelievable that for being Marxist
Leninist one can be expelled from the OAS” exclaimed
