Puerto Rico: the National Sovereign State of Borinken wants independence from the US, and for the US to take over the $73bn debt which Puerto Rico owes to the US.

"The conference, titled “A dialogue of nations: Peoples' right to self-determination and the building of a multi-polar world,” will be held Sunday at Moscow's President Hotel and is apparently intended as a jab at Western governments, as well as a nod to separatist groups outside Russia's borders... 
It named Texas, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Catalonia, Scotland, Ireland, Venice and Western Sahara as examples of “territories and ethnic groups” considering independence bids.
The territories “have a full right to declare their self-sufficiency and independence from other states,” the statement added."


The north American groups at the conference focused on their struggle against the poverty and environmental destruction they said was caused by US colonisation. While Ramón Nenadich of the Puerto Rican group Borinken and Lanny Sinkin, a representative of the self-declared King Silva of Hawaii, said their struggle was non-violent, Omali Yeshitela of the Uhuru Movement said American imperialism could not be overcome by peaceful means.
