| inputthe executive branch has called a special session of congress for tomorrow and the next day to consider the serious situation of panama and to denounce the inter-american reciprocal assistance treaty, tiar, for its ineffectiveness. this was announced by president alan garcia at the conclusion of a council of ministers meeting at government house today. the president also expressed his surprise over the mildness with which the rest of the latin american countries have reacted to the u.s. aggression against panama. president garcia also said that the fuel price increase will allow petroperu (state petroleum agency) to operate. (begin recording) (unidentified reporter) what important subjects were discussed in the council of ministers meeting today? (garcia) the main subject was the decision to call a special congressional session on 22 and 23 december to consider the serious situation created by the u.s. invasion in panama. the second important subject was the decision to denounce the tiar, a military organization that groups all the latin american countries and the united states and which, on several occasions, has proved to be absolutely ineffective and partial. the malvinas islands situation is a good example. according to the tiar, the united states should have supported argentina, but it did exactly the contrary, supporting the united kingdom. now, in this case with panama, the tiar has not served any purpose. rather, it has served to mask the u.s. invasion of panama. therefore, since we consider the tiar to be ineffective and senseless, we, as a republic, must denounce it. we must withdraw our signature from the tiar. this must be done through congress, and that is why we have called a special session. (reporter) several sectors have described the decision to withdraw the peruvian ambassador to the united states as a hasty decision. what do you think of that? (garcia) i think that those must be sectors committed to the invasion. they must support a rightist concept by which the united states has the hegemonic right to safeguard our destiny and to decide who can govern us and who cannot. as peruvians and latin americans, we feel that the aggressive and bloody action by u.s. troops to occupy a small country is a violation. there are currently nearly 30,000 u.s. soldiers in panamanian territory. they have killed many people and they want to impose a new government. thus, as long as those troops remain there, as long as this violation to latin america is maintained, our ambassador will not stay in that country. this does not imply a break in relations; it represents a clear gesture of condemnation and dislike. as long as a u.s. soldier violates the republic of panama, we will keep our ambassador here. as long as the united states does not withdraw their troops and panama remains occupied, the panamanian and peruvian flags will remain together. (reporter) don't you think that this attitude could harm certain relations with the united states; that is, couldn't it jeopardize the imf loan? (garcia) not at all. these are two absolutely different things. the negotiations with the imf are one thing; the international political attitude of a government that abuses its economic and military power with other countries is something else. besides, we should mention something very important. as for panamanian-u.s. relations, the americans have been the main accomplices in depriving panama of democracy. when elections took place in 1984, when arnulfo arias should have won, the united states decided that it was not convenient that arias should win, so a large fraud -- as it was declared at the time -- was carried out to place nicolas ardito barletta in power. the first ones to recognize ardito were the americans. ardito was placed in the presidency by noriega. in 1985 noriega removed ardito and put eric arturo del valle in his place. the americans immediately recognized del valle as president. therefore, the united states has been noriega's accomplice in depriving panama of democracy. we denounced this. noriega is a creation of the united states. it has repeatedly been said that noriega worked with the united states and with the u.s. central intelligence agency, where president bush was once chief. therefore, now that the maid is answering back, making claims to the panama canal and wanting to become independent from the united states, the united states suddenly discovers that she is a drug trafficker and that she does not serve its interests, so they send 30,000 u.s. soldiers to panama. this is an abuse. it is a violation of the sovereignty of another state. no honorable latin american country should tolerate this invasion without actively and openly condemning it. one way to condemn it and express disapproval of it is to say that as long as the troops invading latin america remain, we do not need to maintain our ambassador there.

| inputas a latin american president, i feel a little bit uncomfortable over the statement that the north americans are victims of the drugs produced in latin america and that colombia, peru, and bolivia are to blame for producing the drugs; let's call those countries to talk with them. that seems to me a very ethnocentric vision; it looks at this matter from only one side. our peasants are poor people who produce whatever is most profitable, and coca cultivation happens to be most profitable for them. this is so, speaking coldly, honestly, and sincerely. as president of peru i have to point out that my people, the huallage region peasants, cannot be considered as criminals or as people who must be jailed for producing coca leaves. we have exchanged these views with president barco, and we reached these conclusions. we must also note that this matter has been handled with a great deal of publicity. after the death of carlos galan, a great colombian leader, the colombian government launched an offensive intended to find out whether the drug trafficking bands were responsible for his assassination, and the u.s. government then extended some assistance. this assistance has been present to the world as though the united states had sent an enormous quantity of aircraft, hundreds of helicopters, and thousands of millions of dollars to colombia. as i was able to see in bogota, only helicopters, some of which had been purchased earlier by the colombian government, were sent. i was also informed that some of those helicopters had been used previously in peru. i have said that, if there is that much conviction, i support president bush for defending u.s. society. if he has that much conviction, it is hard to believe that less than one thousandth of what is spent in arms and military expenditures should be allocated to replace coca plantations and to improve the general situation in latin america. we have talked with president barco, and i will talk with president paz zamora to see how we can exchange opinions. then, as president bush said, a meeting of presidents will be welcome. but the meeting should also be attended by europe, which has a fundamental interest in the future. (correspondent) would the idea be to hold a meeting in the near future of peru, colombia, and bolivia with president bush and a representative of the eec? (garcia) yes, because drug trafficking is a growing problem. cartels have sprouted in colombia -- monopolies that try to elect deputies and senators to influence the government. those monopolies might extend their operations to our countries if we do not stop this growing problem. the situation can become worse in bolivia, where it was said that the drug traffickers had an influence on a dictatorial military regime. it is not just a matter of protecting the morality of humanity; it is not just a matter of defending the united states, which has a primary role in world leadership; it is essentially a matter of defending our democracy -- the legitimacy and cleanliness of our social life. i hope that we can have a meeting of the three presidents first, so that we can let the u.s. president know our views on the overall problem. (correspondent) will you propose that meeting, mr president? (garcia) i don't want to assume a leading role. the idea emerged in a conversation with president barco, and i will talk later with president paz zamora. (correspondent) a meeting between you and president bush late this month has been mentioned. is this true, mr president? (garcia) no, i believe that has been mere speculation in the press. for the time being i have discarded the idea of making another trip abroad. i do not see the concrete possibility of meeting with president bush, although i hope we can meet sometime before 28 july 1990. (correspondent) changing the subject, mr president -- much has been said in recent days about the possible or probable expulsion of peru from the imf. what is the truth about this, and what would expulsion mean? (garcia) well, first, it is politically impossible for peru to be expelled from the imf. second, there is misinformation and alarmism regarding the matter. what is the imf? it is some sort of creditor bank created in 1946 that lends money to countries with balance-of-payments problems; that is, with problems with their foreign reserves levels. when a country has no reserves or only $100 million in reserves, it can apply for a credit from the imf to pay for imports or overdue debts. this is the imf, an organization created to facilitate the flow of international financial resources. an imf credit is dependent on signing a letter of intent or an adjustment program. adjustment means reducing the country's internal consumption so as to spare the country's reserves in order to meet debt obligations.

| inputfollowing the u.s. invasion of grenada island, the world discarded any further possibility of a u.s. armed operation against another nation of the american continent, despite the deterioration of its relations with other governments and provocations against the u.s. government. it was believed that the u.s. would confine its participation to supporting and sponsoring movements aimed at ousting governments or, as in the case of nicaragua, of supporting rebel forces to achieve the goals set by the white house. the events that occurred early this morning in panama have surprised the world because, despite general manuel antonio noriega's challenging attitude, no one thought the u.s. would invade panama. noriega was certain the u.s. government would not do so, and supposed that u.s. attitudes against him would consist of sponsoring rebellion, such as the recent 3-october attempt, when the u.s. government encouraged members of the panamanian defense forces to rebel against their commander in chief. noriega never thought the u.s. government would ever conduct a military operation against panama, although there were u.s. troops based on the canal zone. he continued under this impression because never before had these troops changed from their role of surveillance, not even when washington promoted the rebellion of some young officers of the panamanian forces. this excessive security distracted noriega and encouraged him to challenge the u.s. policies. noriega did not believe the u.s. threats and he adopted an omnipotent stance, like his recent decision to appoint himself the supreme leader of panama. noriega believed that the united states would continue to support subversion in his country, and that the u.s. decision to support the opposition currently in exile would produce movements against his regime, or that a commando might attempt to kidnap him. as a result of this belief, he increased the strength of the military forces and equipped many civilians who supported him with weapons to be ready to dismantle movements that tried to destabilize his government. as the clocks struck midnight in panama, the u.s. forces began an operation against the panamanian defense force barracks. the troops already based in panama, and those flown in from bases in california and in other cities near panama, started a massive attack to oust gen noriega. the invasion, which seemed possible to some and to others (words indistinct), were mainly conducted to punish someone who has been declared one of the most important latin american drug traffickers by the u.s. courts. early this morning, sources close to the white house announced that the operation was aimed at capturing noriega and taking him to the united states to be tried for the crimes attributed to him by the u.s. courts, at ensuring compliance with the treaties on the panama canal, and at restoring democracy in the country following the farcical may-l989 elections. these are the reasons for the u.s. armed intervention in panama, which is filling the world with trepidation due to the danger hovering over the continent and the fact that president bush's decision has gone beyond the logic of the u.s. policy toward latin america. international observers did, however, guess that something was about to occur when president bush said recently that while the u.s. government could reach agreement with nicaragua, with noriega it was impossible to reach any agreement, and that the united states had to do something about this veiled danger that threatened the american continent. today, panama has become a battlefield. the capital and other cities are battlefields on which the government forces are fighting the u.s. units in ground, air, and maritime operations that seek to oust manuel antonio noriega. the u.s. action is focussing the world's attention on washington's decision. many nations will protest and reject the u.s. invasion which was disguised by a series of peace-seeking actions. four days before christmas eve, the ghost of war is haunting our continent. we must ponder on the need to keep honduras on the democratic path, and to avoid the anarchy that destroys nations and decimates peoples. the events that have kept the world in vigil since midnight will continue for hours, days, or maybe weeks because, so far, the news is very confusing and civilian victims are dying on the streets of the panamanian towns.outputjson_structuresschema |

(begin recording) (reporter) good morning, colonel. (ochoa) good morning. thanks, raul. these gentlemen seem to be speaking in the name of the entire armed forces. i know well what was discussed in the meeting. someone even said that the bright idea of discharging me was considered. they failed to take into account, however, that i am a deputy and that, as a deputy and a citizen, i am entitled to express what i feel, just as i have done. i, who owe everything to the armed forces, who fought beside the soldiers as monterrosa, carlitos, and very few others did, never got rich when in the armed forces, as some of the commanders did, although not all of them, of course. this undoubtedly has irritated them. i have simply expressed my viewpoint as a soldier concerned about the armed forces' situation. i never mentioned any names. i simply demanded justice because, even according to military theory, i cannot conceive that such an important decision could have been made by a single person. i still think this is a plot by some members of the institution, not by the armed forces as such. i only have respect and love for the armed forces. i am concerned over the delicate situation to which the institution could be led because of the actions of some nefarious members. i have deep respect for the officers in the field, who fight every day. of course, i must criticize those who have profited from the institution and who today have raised the roof, as if i were the one to blame and as if i were undermining the institutionality of the state. quite the opposite is true. my criticism is positive and intends to encourage a deeper investigation and exhaust all resources in this direction. i would like them to stop making ridiculous demands and to stop seeking a confrontation. it is known that what i am demanding is what is being felt and said. i am not accusing anyone in particular. i am only demanding justice. commanders' meetings should not be held to make such a statement. they should have instead shown their concern over the armed forces' situation. i would have been very interested in seeing them take the stand to continue the investigation to the last consequences. as the military man i am, i only assessed the situation. i never mentioned any names, but insisted that a deeper inquiry should be made to carry out justice, because otherwise it is the institution that will suffer. (reporter) col ochoa, after the \ program on cbs in the united states, it seems that in this capital and in the country your remarks and your interpretation of the jesuits' case were distorted. today there has been an attempt to accuse you. it has been said that the cut in u.s. aid to the salvadoran armed forces is the result of your remarks, rather than of the slowness in the investigation of the jeusit priests' case. do you think there has been ill intent in this, or that there has been an attempt to take advantage of you to try to justify an action? (ochoa) i think so. there has been an attempt to blame me, as if i could influence the decision-making of the u.s. congress. a reduction in military aid to el salvador has been under consideration for months because the expected results have not been obtained. i think it is ridiculous and childish to say that the aid will be cut as the result of my remarks. the truth is that all crimes with which some armed forces' members have jeopardized the institution should be punished. my understanding is that solidarity should exist in the context of operations and the fulfillment of the armed forces' constitutional mission. however, those who harm the institution should not be protected. i think some are trying to take advantage of the situation, as if to say: col ochoa has endangered the armed forces. what has endangered the institution is the murder of the jesuits and the san sebastian people. i canot agree with the perpetration of outrages. one thing is to fight fairly with the enemy. there are dead in every war. i said this very clearly when i was 4th infantry brigade commander in cabanas. i agreed with the penetration into the population to help them. i feel satisfied over my passage through the armed forces as a commander, because i identified myself both with my men and the civilian population. at no time did i take advantage of the institution to acquire illegal riches. to point these things out is not to attack the armed forces. quite the contrary, it is because i love it that i have criticized the negative members. the armed forces can thus be spared greater damage by the poor actions of some of its members. (reporter) colonel, in the past few hours we have heard reports that you are to be supported by the army's younger officers and some unions, even the cel union. what can you tell us about this situation?

| inputdespite ample evidence, no salvadoran government had blamed the armed forces of killing defenseless civilians since the civil war worsened in 1979. the announcement made by president alfredo cristiani of the arrest of 45 soldiers and 2 officers for killing 6 clergymen, a maid, and her daughter, on 16 november is in itself a small and partial milestone. cristiani, whose nationalist republican alliance party was founded at the beginning of the eighties by individuals linked to paramilitary bands, the army, and security corps, asserted that the names of those responsible for the crimes will be released in the next 48 hours. jesuist francisco estrada, who replaced father jose ignacio ellacuria -- one of those massacred -- at the rectorship of the central american university in san salvador, warned that it is not enough to know which sargent pulled the trigger but who gave him orders to do so needs to be revealed. cristiani will not go that far. cosmetic sacrifices are made in order to neutralize the threat of u.s. congress interrupting the $1.5 million it sends a day for the war against the farabundo marti national liberation front (fmln) and the repression of the people. the dismissal of general juan rafael bustillo as chief of the air forces and the possible punishment of some of the counterinsurgent atlacatl battalion fulfill these requirements. however, cristiani will attend the next informal summit of central american presidents in tegucigalpa, honduras on 28 january under adverse conditions. the mobilization of the latin american public opinion against the u.s. intervention in panama and its aim of extending the intervention to other nations of the area have weakened washington's diplomatic space. this could have an effect on its political ally of el salvador which, in the previous summit held in december, presented nicaragua and the fmln as responsible for the worsening of the crisis in central america. the facts are conclusive. what will now be the excuse of salvadoran president alfredo cristiani and his protector george bush?", "output": {"json_structures": {"MUC4:Incident": [{"trigger": {"text": "", "start": 0, "end": 0}, "arguments": [{"role": "PerpetratorIndividual", "text": "45 soldiers", "start": 219, "end": 230}, {"role": "PerpetratorIndividual", "text": "2 officers", "start": 235, "end": 245}, {"role": "PerpetratorOrganization", "text": "armed forces", "start": 64, "end": 76}, {"role": "Victim", "text": "jose ignacio ellacuria", "start": 683, "end": 705}]}]}}, "schema": []} |

(cristiani) we are currently seeing opposite signs from the fmln in terms of wanting to truly put an end to violence. a sign of this was the night of 1 may when the attacks were carried out. this would indicate that, although not all the fmln command, that is the five groups, some groups seem to resist a political solution and favor a military solution, as they have insisted on pursuing for 10 years. those groups could view a cut in military aid as a sign of weakening of the government and the armed forces, and that consequently they would have a better chance of being successful following the military path. that could increase the potential of a military solution in the minds of some. this could reduce the potential of seriously considering a political solution to the conflict. (moderator) raul monge, cadena radio centro. (reporter) mr. president, how do you view the guerrillas' morale at this moment? (cristiani) well, i obviously cannot but believe that the morale of the guerrillas after the offensive must have dropped considerbly. this is especially so since there was a large sacrifice on their part in the form of casualties and the fact that the offensive did not represent a success, despite their claim that it was only a show of force, which is a lot of malarkey. all the prior documents indicated that this was a large-scale operation to the hilt seeking to overthrow the government and to crown a military victory. what i believe was of even greater impact was that they realized that the people of el salvador do not support them and do not support the path of violence. in that sense, their hopes of a popular insurrection were shattered. on the contrary, the people did not support the fmln and instead turned their backs on them and showed that they do not support violence. this must have caused an impact on the fmln and its members. i recently read in a venezuelan newspaper statements by a commander, whose pseudonym is gustavo, who said that they were tired of following the path of violence and that a solution had to be found. this demonstrates that some of their ranks are getting tired of the military path. these are indications of what could be. what i want to clear up once and for all is that we do not react to whether or not the fmln feels strong or feels weak. we know that 100 terrorists in a country can cause destruction and death and that is what we are trying to avoid, although 100 terrorists are not a force that will destabilize a government. however, the damage that they cause is such that we do not want it to continue.

| inputdie welt: your thoughts are focused on chile, but let us briefly look at europe nevertheless. the democratic revolution in east europe has also been a sensation to chile. what hopes do you place in these gigantic radical changes? aylwin: i think that the changes in east europe are of very great importance for mankind. they give us satisfaction and hope. the opening of the berlin wall symbolizes the beginning of a new era in relations between east and west as well as the desire of the germans to achieve unity again. we would like to see this situation lead to a reduction in military spending and to closer relations between the peoples. die welt: what effects do you see for a third world country such as chile? aylwin: i see two effects. first, a symbolic effect. chile is traditionally a democratic country. now the long period of a dictatorial regime is ending, however. this explosion of freedom coincides with the restoration of democracy in chile. that is a stimulating feeling. we are embarking on the road of humanity. second, there is a lot of talk about the danger of communism in our country; people say that communism could jeopardize our democratic future. i think that the events in east europe and the soviet union demonstrate that communism is no longer a danger for the world. nor for chile. die welt: chile has the best organized communist party in latin america. has this party changed? what was its reaction? aylwin: little is known about the situation of such a monolithic and coherent party. it was illegal and worked underground for a long time. however, i do not believe that any communist party can ignore the events in that part of the world which has so far been dominated by communist parties. the chilean communist party leaders have admitted that this is a universal process. die welt: what relationship do you have with volodia teitelboim, the general secretary of the communist party? do you speak with him? do you see him sometimes? aylwin: we have known each other from the time when we were both senators, meaning prior to 1973. we were political opponents, but we often talked with each other. since then, we have met only once, at a political function. my rivals in this election campaign have often misrepresented our relationship, and have described me as teitelboim's secret ally. however, i think that people of different persuasions can talk with each other and can reach agreement. that has been done in chile with some success. die welt: the communist party backed your candidacy. will it be represented in the new government? aylwin: not at all. die welt: but the future government will be a left-center government and will reflect the composition of the opposition today. aylwin: yes, chile will have a left-center government. the various socialist currents will be represented. however, the strongest movement is the christian democratic party which is in the center. die welt: do you think that following these elections, the panorama of the opposition will change? aylwin: i have no doubt about that. there have been four families in the past -- the christian democratic family, the social democratically-oriented family of the old radical party, the socialist family, and the family of the right center. they all want to survive. die welt: many people say that the socialist ricardo lagos is the strongest figure of the opposition alliance. what role will he play in the future? aylwin: he will concentrate on parliamentary work as a senator. as is the case in every parliamentary democracy, he cannot be a member of the government as a representative of congress.

(azcona) no way. how could i be alone? on the contrary, we are doing well. i believe we are going to receive more support. i do not see why i could be left alone. there is the government and the experts. we are establishing relations with the party, with the most important people of the party. (giron) are employees going to be pressured? (azcona) i do not believe they are going to be forced to do anything because no law says that the employees of a government must support any particular party. however, i believe that if the executive branch works in unison, as it has been doing, then all members of the liberal party will be happy to make contributions to the party to guarantee a new victory.
