El Ministro de Asunto Exteriores de España y Jose A. Font de la Alianza Democrática
En el almuerzo organizado por la Cámara de Comercio de España y Estados Unidos en el hotel Marriot de la ciudad de Miami el viernes 3 de mayo, José A. Font, Presidente del Directorio de la Alianza Democrática conversó con José Manuel García-Margallo, Ministro de Asuntos Exteriores y de Cooperación de España y le entregó la siguiente carta:
2 de mayo, 2013
Su Excelencia José Manuel García-Margallo
Ministro de Asuntos Exteriores y de Cooperación del Gobierno de España
Honorable señor Ministro:
El problema de Venezuela es una ineludible prioridad colectiva. A un pueblo hermano se le asfixian sus libertades después de haberle arrebatado sus instituciones. No es un hecho aislado sino parte de una estrategia populista que tiene como objetivo continuar derrumbado los sistemas democráticos en los países donde estos son más vulnerables. Cuentan con los recursos petroleros venezolanos y la experiencia subversiva y represiva de la dictadura castrista. Lamentablemente también los favorece el silencio de la mayoría de los políticos del continente.
Comprendemos que la situación de España obliga al gobierno que usted representa a concentrarse en la busca de soluciones a serios problemas. Sin embargo, España no puede renunciar a una importante participación en la batalla por salvar la democracia en Nuestra América. Enfrentar hoy a los enemigos de la libertad será menos costoso en recursos y vidas humanas que hacerlo mañana.
El sábado pasado nuestro presidente el Dr. Huber Matos Garsault viajó a Caracas a reunirse con líderes de la oposición, entre ellos con nuestra querida amiga la diputada María Corina Machado, quien tres días después fue una de las víctimas de la brutal agresión en la Asamblea Nacional. Por el vínculo que nos une a estos valientes demócratas, por un pueblo que no debe ser abandonado, en nombre de los millones de hispanoamericanos que no se sienten representados por el silencio y la complicidad de sus políticos electos y en nombre de los miembros de la Alianza Democrática que tengo el honor de representar, solicitamos del gobierno español un paso firme y contundente en apoyo a la democracia en Venezuela.
Atentamente,
José A. Font,
Presidente del Directorio
