WILL THE OAS 49TH GENERAL ASSEMBLY COVER UP BOLIVIA’S DICTATORSHIP?
The Organization of American States is avoiding to apply the Interamerican Democratic Charter (IDC) to Bolivia’s “vote-catching dictatorship”. I have imagined the “vote-catching dictatorship” as “a political regime that by force or violence; concentrates the whole of political power in one person or in one group, represses human rights and basic freedoms, and uses elections as a means of simulation and propaganda in order to keep itself indefinitely in power”. The OAS’ 49th General Assembly, will be stigmatized by “Almagro’s double standard” in the application of principles and regulations and will be known as the one that covered up Bolivia’s dictatorship.
