Press Release (OAS)

    BELMOPAN Belize, April 3rd, 2012  --  The Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel Insulza, today welcomed the release of the 10 members of the Colombian security forces kidnapped by the guerilla forces of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC).

     

    “The release of these 10 hostages, who had been in captivity as long as 13 and 14 years, is good news and we are happy for them and their families, from whom they were unfairly separated for so long” added Insulza.

     

    The top representative of the OAS reiterated his demands that all the people who continue to be held hostage by the FARC should be freed without conditions, which he described as a necessary prerequisite to achieve peace.

     

    At the same time, Insulza praised the efforts of the governments of Colombia and Brazil, of the International Red Cross and of other NGOs who made possible the release of the ten hostages.

     

    “It fills me with satisfaction to see that this release has been achieved thanks to international collaboration, the efforts of governments and social organizations in the hemisphere, working together to end these crimes against humanity,” he added.
