The Landless Workers’ Movement (MST) closed its 14th National Congress with the participation of Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Celebrating 42 years of the MST, Lula praised the movement’s role in defending social justice and resisting harmful agribusiness practices. In his speech, the president condemned the U.S. military attack on Venezuela and the kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores, stressing that Latin America must remain a zone of peace. The MST, the largest social movement in the continent, reaffirmed its decades‑long commitment to solidarity among the peoples of the Global South, regional sovereignty, and fair access to land.
