OAS Secretary General Expresses Outrage over Repression in Egypt that has Caused Hundreds of Casualties
August 15, 2013
The Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel Insulza, expressed outrage at the violence in Egypt against protesters expressing their rejection of the interim government, which has caused hundreds of deaths, and called on the international community to help Egyptian society to find a path to dialogue and negotiations to end the fighting.
Insulza said he could not remain indifferent to the tragedy facing the Egyptian people, trapped in a spiral of violence in their desire to recover democratic institutions and normalize civic life. He noted that "the media show us real and painful images, such as the massacre of two days ago, that we cannot ignore even if it is happening thousands of miles away."
The OAS Secretary General recalled that in the Americas there are thousands of people descended from countries in the Middle East who "are suffering from the plight of their relatives in the area, so the violence is not that far removed from us."
Finally Insulza urged the Egyptian authorities and protesters to find points of dialogue to open the door to peace in Egypt, and bring an end to the rampant violence that has caused so much death and pain to the country.
