Madrid Forum: ‘Hamas, Iran, the São Paulo Forum and the Puebla Group are enemies of Western democracies’

The Madrid Forum rejected the position of the Spanish government and many Latin American countries regarding the attack suffered by Israel at the hands of Hamas. It maintained that, in its opinion, the position taken by the socialist leaders "demonstrates the alignment of the Ibero-American left with terrorism."

"The recent statements by Petro, Maduro, Evo and Yolanda Díaz, even after the mass killing, kidnappings, rapes and other execrable acts of criminal violence against the people of Israel, demonstrate the alignment of the Ibero-American left with terrorism," said the Madrid Forum in a statement.

"The lukewarm and biased statements of the Puebla Group and the São Paulo Forum, without condemning the inflammatory statements of their members, confirm that they are organizations that promote terrorism," added the Madrid Forum, which promotes anti-communist values.

The organization explained that it supports Israel. "The Madrid Forum expresses its full support for the State of Israel in these moments of pain that demand determination and fortitude," it said.
