Shortly after the closure of this year’s summit in Tehran, Venezuelan foreign minister Nicolas Maduro announced Friday that the next summit would be held in Caracas.
"It has been decided that the 17th summit (will be held) in Caracas in 2015," Maduro said in an interview with VTV state television in Tehran.
The 2015 summit will be held "in a world that will have evolved," Maduro said, explaining that NAM states will have made progress in efforts to build a "multi-polar, multi-centered world without the hegemony" of imperialist states.
Iran on Friday closed the two-day NAM Summit after having discussed major international files on top of which was the Palestinian cause, the Syrian crisis, and the countries’ right to make use of peaceful nuclear energy.
Representatives from the 120 members of NAM adopted a document that condemned unilateral sanctions, backed the right of Iran and other states to peaceful nuclear energy, and supported the creation of a Palestinian state.
The document also reportedly advocated nuclear disarmament, human rights free from political agendas and opposition to racism and "Islamophobia".
