It is the forum that allows us to dialogue and work together on a daily basis to improve the living conditions of our peoples,” he added.

For his part, the secretary-general of the OAS, Luis Almagro, said, “Chile is a country that has honored the OAS with its presence and efficient diplomatic activity. The defense of democracy, human rights, hemispheric security and integral development, which are our basic pillars, are also part of the agenda of your delegation,” and added ” welcome to the House of the Americas.”
