Canaria Network by DD.HH. in Colombia, with perplexity and disappointment has been informed of the arrest and subsequent delivery by the Government of Venezuela of Colombian regime's political persecution. This is Joaquín Pérez Becerra, a social communicator who was councilman of the Patriotic Union, the left political movement in Colombia, whose membership was wiped out by the Colombian State. About 5000 members of the UP have been murdered since 1986 until today. During Uribe's first term (the minister of war is the current president of Colombia, Juan Manuel Santos) killed 150 survivors of the Patriotic Union. American Commission of the OAS DD.HH. complaint was filed by the extermination of the political movement, documenting some 3,600 killings and disappearances, which is why he was sentenced the Colombian State.
For this criminal persecution left his country Joaquín Pérez Becerra and fled to Sweden, where he remained as a refugee. During the term of Uribe and Defense Minister Juan Manuel Santos, the current president, was reported some 1,800 extrajudicial killings. Likewise, the Colombian government is rife with scandals and accusations of blatant ties to paramilitary groups and drug trafficking.
What is the crime of Joaquín Pérez Becerra? Report this rot, state crimes, murders and forced disappearances of thousands of women and men organized into unions, peasant associations and popular organizations diverse try to change the reality of poverty experienced by the majority of our population. Call things by their name is what made Joaquín Pérez Becerra. The recognition of the existence of an internal armed conflict of a political, economic and social, to refer to the confrontation between the insurgents and the state, in a context in which the Colombian government does not tolerate political opposition and is used by the oligarchy as instrument to remove it physically, systematically denied the status of belligerent insurgent organizations.
However, this view showing the web ANNCOL, which is linked as director Joaquín Pérez Becerra, is denied by the governments carry out imperialist policies and the Colombian government. This perspective recognizes the conflict and its parties gives rise to the application at least the most universal principles of international humanitarian law, possible to reduce hostilities and to acclimate a space for conflict solution through dialogue based on tolerance and build a space of political freedom. But the Colombian government is violating IHL champion is not interested in this legal framework, so he prefers to deny the conflict and reduce the political and military opponents to the status of criminal - terrorist. This qualification entails a legal framework that prevents the negotiation and implementation of IHL. Al Conversely, in the fight against terrorism, the State can justify and justify ongoing violations of human rights and IHL. It is very common in this light consider the non-combatant civilian employees of the so-called "terrorists" for the sake of defending similar political principles, the subject of prosecution and persecution, just as in the case of Joaquin Perez Becerra.
Canaria Network for Human Rights in Colombia received with dismay and concern the news of the arrest and extradition of Bolivarian this fighter who had to leave his country for his life and now has been given their persecutors. Joaquin has been arrested and handed over to Colombia violating Venezuelan law, his lawyers allege. The speed with which took effect seems indicative of a clear intention of the Venezuelan Government to cooperate with the Government of Colombia in its repressive action.
After the attitude in the past had the Venezuelan president with his willingness to mediate in an effort for recognition of both warring parties as interlocutors, the Red Canaria for Human Rights in Colombia considered This unfortunate shift in favor of imperialist positions to maintain the war and the persecution of political opposition in Colombia, a clear renunciation a los valores de la Revolución Bolivariana.
