At 11:00 o’clock in the morning of July 5, 2010, being present at the Helicoide facilities, holding an interview with citizen Mr. Francisco Antonio Chávez Abarca, upon having exchanged different points of views on the situation in connection with him, he declared to me that he did not want to leave Venezuela and that if I could avoid him being sent to Cuba, he would cooperate.

On July 12, 2010, a uniformed commando made up of 20 men of the Servicio Bolivariano de Inteligencia Nacional (SEBIN) or Bolivarian Service of National Intelligence, burst into the home of the Venezuelan political leader Alejandro Peña Esclusa, and took him prisoner.

The Inter-American Institute, founded by renowned philosopher and author Olavo de Carvalho and featuring as distinguished fellows such notables as Dr. Edwin Vieira and Dr. Judith Reisman, believes it is their most crucial mission to help spread the truth about Chavez and his wrongful imprisonment of this heroic leader. And because they understand his crucial role in keeping the sputtering flame of liberty alive in Latin America, they are proud to announce their decision to nominate Mr. Esclusa-Peña for the position of Distinguished Fellow of the Institute.

I have the honor to address this letter to you, in order to fully validate the accusations that your government has made regarding the connections of Mr. Hugo Chavez with the FARC.

These connections go back to May 30th, 1995, when Chavez was registered at the Foro de Sao Paulo, an organization where also the FARC and the ELN belong…

For two years I have been waiting for my imprisonment, due to the effective work I have been achieving against Mr. Chavez and his allies of the Forum Sao Paulo. In the coming days and weeks, the extent of this work will be disseminated.
Friends and acquaintances, and even fellow UnoAmerica across the continent, insisted I had to leave Venezuela and work from abroad. «From the outside you can be more helpful to the cause, because in prison you’ll be will be given up for lost” they said.
