President Trump with his wrecking crew of Elliot Abrams and John Bolton have called Nicaragua, Cuba and Venezuela a “Troika of Tyranny” and have pledged to destabilise all three countries with a view to bringing about regime change, because they do not agree with these left leaning governments in “the USA’s Back Yard”. The mainstream UK press and media as well as swathes of social media regularly feature stories attacking these three Republics and it is difficult for an alternative narrative to gain any coverage. This is the first time all three Ambassadors have spoken together in Bristol. This event gives you a chance to hear directly about the impacts of Trump’s attacks as well as how the governments and people of these countries are fighting back.

Venue: Tony Benn House (Unite the union), Victoria Street, BRISTOL BS1 6AY
