PERU REITERATES AT OAS MEETING ITS
FIRM COMMITMENT TO DEMOCRACY AND HUMAN RIGHTS
October 12, 2005
The government of Peru, in a statement delivered to the Organization of American States (OAS) Wednesday, renewed its unwavering commitment to the policies adopted “since genuine democracy was restored” in the South American country in 2001. Those policies, according to Permanent Representative to the OAS Ambassador Fernando de la Flor Arbulú, revolve around democracy, human rights and “a hemispheric security approach that ensures peace in the world.”
Declaring to an OAS Permanent Council session that “Peru’s commitment to democracy is beyond question,” Ambassador Arbulú recalled that his country was part of the initiative to adopt the now four year-old Inter-American Democratic Charter. He also called for the commitment to democracy to be approached as “an obligation binding under law, with everything that implies, rather than merely a moral or political obligation.”
The Peruvian envoy told the OAS member state ambassadors that, as concerns human rights, “the government of Peru has witnessed a marked difference since a democratic regime was restored.” Citing a “newer, kinder approach by the state itself,” the ambassador explained that the Peruvian state, “in the person of the President, apologized to the victims of human rights violations.”
In his intervention to the Permanent Council, de la Flor stated that “Peru is committed to staying the course so as to promote an inter-American human rights system that is stronger and is entrenched as a genuine mechanism that promotes unconditional respect for human rights throughout the hemisphere.”
