Dear Colleagues,
A paragraph in Spanish followed by its translation into English...
"RESUELVE: Respaldar plenamente la institucionalidad democrática y
constitucional de la República Bolivariana de Venezuela, cuyo gobierno
preside Hugo Chávez Frías, y rechazar categóricamente cualquier intento de
golpe de estado o alteración del orden constitucional venezolano que afecte
gravemente el orden democrático.”
- la Organización de Estados Americanos (OEA)
“RESOLVED: To fully back the democratic and constitutional legitimacy of the
Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, whose government is led by Hugo Chávez
Frías, and to reject, categorically, any coup attempt or alteration of
constitutional order that seriously affects democratic rule.”
- the Organization of American States (OAS)
12:21 p.m. ET, December 17, 2002:
One hour and some minutes ago, the Organization of American States (OAS),
for the first time in the organization’s history, rejected a major United
States initiative.
The OAS backed, by a vote of 32-0 – with two countries not counted – a
resolution to support the continuance of the democratically elected
government of Hugo Chávez of Venezuela.
This unprecedented result of a fierce, tense, and extended, debate marks an
historic turning point for our América.
The nations of the Western Hemisphere rejected, once and for all, any
attempt at coup d’etat, in Venezuela or elsewhere. Washington’s spoonful of
sugar to make the medicine go down was language backing OAS secretary
general Cesar Gaviria to “find a way to channel positive energies” in
Venezuela.
In a veiled message of “no confidence” for its own secretary general’s
pro-coup efforts in Caracas over the past 15 days, the Organization of
American States equally called upon the Carter Center and the United Nations
to promote dialogue in Venezuela, but not to permit any coup attempt nor
pretension of interrupting democracy; not even by the OAS’s own
representative.
We repeat: 32 American nations tonight, after an unprecedented Authentic
Debate among the members of the Organization of American states, rejected
destabilizing proposals by Washington to impose its policies on another
American country: Venezuela.
The foreign ministries of Mexico and Peru – who had, 48 hours ago, been
willing patsies for Washington in this historic debate - stuck their fingers
in the air, and saw which way the wind was blowing. And by voting with the
majority they kept the door open for their membership in the New American
Union that will gain traction in 2003.
December 16, 2002: The day the empire died.
At press time, we still don’t know which States were the two that did not
vote, or perhaps were not present, for the resolution supported by 32 of 34
American countries that have just turned América right-side-up again. We’ll
find out and get back to you on that.
But we can’t help but add: The end of imposition has profound consequences
for the pro-narco drug policy imposed by Washington on other nations.
Narco News wishes all our readers, correspondents, sources, professors,
students, and allies, a New Year that sneaks up on the old one.
Oh my, it already has.
from somewhere in a country called América,
Al Giordano
