May 20, 2001 Please Distribute Widely Dear Colleagues, Narco News has now translated a transcription of one of former Peru strongman Vladimiro Montesinos' clandestine videos - an April 1999 conversation Montesinos had with a prominent Peruvian television executive. The transcript was published in Spanish last week by the daily La Republica of Lima, Peru. "The only alternative that the Americans have in order to solve the problem of Colombia, is the invasion... They are preparing half a million Marine infantry troops in order to invade Colombia." -- Vladimiro Montesinos Vladi-Video #1487 "The Invasion" April 21, 1999 The transcript contains information that confirms Peru correspondent Peter Gorman's view, as published on Narco News, that it was Peru President Alberto Fujimori's reluctance to support Plan Colombia - not his drug trafficking or atrocities against human rights - that led to his U.S.-sponsored downfall.
