The Socialists and Democrats Group adopted a declaration on strengthening relations between Europe and Latin America, on the occasion of the first Latin America Day, 15 November 2021, hosted by the S&D Group in the European Parliament, in the presence of former Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and former Spanish Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero.
Building on the success of the Latin America Day event, the S&D Group will organise a week dedicated to Latin America in the European Parliament during the Spring of 2022 - the Latin America Days - to further deepen the cooperation between progressive forces on both sides of the Atlantic.
