"The lords of the American States Organization (OAS the acronym in
Spanish) are politicians that adapt themselves to the circumstances,
they are not defenders of freedom and justice; they disguise themselves
as 'listeners' and then at the end bless the theft and abuse of trust of
the people", said the Bishop of Esteli, His Exc. Mgr. Juan Abelardo
Mata Guevara, SDB, after the statement of the Government of Nicaragua,
developed together with the OAS.
According to information of Fides, the Nicaraguan community had invited
the OAS representatives to verify the democratic crisis that Nicaragua
is going through, after the elections that saw Ortega win as president
although this was impossible under the rules of the electoral law in
force.
The Report, according to the specialized political press, reports
the situation of the country but not the causes of the problems, does
not speak of transparency and independence required by a free and fair
electoral process.
"The honor of those who swore to defend the American hemisphere of the
Democratic Charter is called into question and the institution is
weakened. We want to see at the helm of organizations like this good
people, not politicians", said the Bishop vigorously in a press
conference held on January 24.
