We will not tolerate the return to the era of cavemen, Chavez says about Honduras

Caracas, Jun 29- “We have seen the capacity of fast answer of all the mechanisms of international integration against the coup d’état in Honduras (…) Let’s fight, no matter the differences; we cannot allow the return to the era of cavemen,” affirmed on Monday the president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez Frias.

From Managua, Nicaraguan capital city, to which he attends to an extraordinary summit of the Bolivarian Alliance of the People of our America (ALBA), the Venezuelan President expressed that the integration bloc demands the immediate restitution of Honduras’ President Manuel Zelaya and the rights of the Honduran people.

“There is a set of meetings, discussions and debates to fix stances; that is why we have to do against the barbarism we are seeing: soldiers against demonstrators. There is a media besiege. We do not know what is going on. It is a return to the caverns, we will not tolerate it.”

Chavez added that “It is n event (the coup against Zelaya) that attacks all of us, no matter our ideologies; it is a barefacedly abuse of a bourgeois elite against a nation.”

Also, he said that the capacity of answer given almost immediately by the Organization of American States, the ALBA, the Union of South American Nations (UNASUR), the Rio Group, the Caricom, the Central American Integration System (SICA), among others, shows the positive steps given in Latin America.

President Chavez reaffirmed that “There is no possible bargaining. We demand the immediate return of President Manuel Zelaya.”
