An upcoming meeting of young European and Latin American leaders should inspire hope for a political change across the Atlantic.
The Buenos Aires Forum will bring together youthful, likeminded leadership figures from Latin American and European countries to discuss new ways forward for both continents—but with a particular focus on the problems facing countries from Rio Grande to the Antarctic.
“Although the Americas and Europe experience vastly different socio-environmental circumstances, they face the same threats, at least culturally. This is the main reason why young politicians from both sides of the Atlantic must connect, share experiences, and join forces to confront the woke culture that is being deployed through a parliamentary political agenda that seeks to sweep away the vestiges of our Western and Christian civilization,” Enzo Di Fabio, the coordinator of the Forum told The European Conservative:
Progressivism—with its gender agenda, its legislation in favor of the culture of death, its promotion of quarrels that did not exist in society (between whites and blacks, men and women, heterosexuals and homosexuals, etc.)—is a serious and real threat. Some countries have fought it with some success, while others have given ground and are paying the consequences. This in itself is sufficient grounds for the young leaders of the European and American Right to get in touch and start working together.
The gathering will take place in Buenos Aires July 10 through 12, with the objective of being a networking and formative opportunity as well as a space for intellectual debate.
Topics include structural poverty, security and transnational organized crime, free speech, lawfare,and conservatism. Think tanks and organizations from both North and South America—as well as Europe—are sponsoring and participating in the event.
In the face of advancing socialism in Latin America, often supported by socialists in Europe, the Buenos Aires Forum seeks to counteract the work of Sao Paulo Forum and Puebla Group, international platforms for socialist parties and think tanks.
For Latin Americans, the situation is—according to the Buenos Aires Forum—particularly acute, as socialism is threatening to lead many Latin American countries down a path of underdevelopment, causing many Latin Americans to leave their homelands in search of better opportunities.
