No se puede dejar solo y expuesto al Presidente Transitorio de Venezuela y el tiempo apremia. Hay que contribuir a la “conformación efectiva del gobierno de transición”
La democracia de las Américas está frente a un grupo estructurado de delincuencia organizada trasnacional, un enemigo que busca aliados globales en el crimen y el terrorismo para sostenerse. No se puede continuar tratando a la dictadura de Cuba al margen de lo que sucede en y con las dictaduras de Venezuela, Nicaragua y Bolivia, y viceversa, Quien se equivoque en la identificación del enemigo será derrotado.
