Mexico Asks the OAS to Review the Legal Status of the Appointment of Juan Guaido

January 25, 2019

The ambassador of Mexico to the OAS, Jorge Lomónaco, asked to review the “delicate situation” of the international support for the parliamentarian, who was sworn in as “president in charge.”

The government of Mexico on Thursday asked the Organization of American States (OAS) to review the legal status of the nomination of Juan Guaidó as president of Venezuela.

Ambassador Jorge Lomónaco, representative of Mexico before the OAS, asked the General Secretariat of the organization to review the legal implications of Guaidó’s self-proclamation as “interim president” and the non recognition of Nicolás Maduro as legitimate president by some countries in the region.

“We think it is necessary to clarify the legal status derived from the appointment of the interim president, appointed by the National Assembly of Venezuela, and the samples of international recognition and support he has received,” said Lomónaco, quoted by El Financiero.

The Mexican ambassador asked the agency to consider “all the relevant legal instruments and the consequences for the future operation” of the organization, after the meeting convened by Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, the United States and Peru to discuss “the recent events in Venezuela.”

Mexico and Uruguay call for dialogue

The governments of Mexico and Uruguay called Thursday to “reduce tensions and prevent an escalation of violence that could aggravate the situation.”

In a joint statement, the chancelleries proposed “a new process of inclusive and credible negotiation, with full respect for the rule of law and human rights” to resolve the crisis in Venezuela.

Maduro accepts

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro said Friday that he is “in agreement” with the “dialogue initiative” of Mexico and Uruguay.

I am willing to talk […] I am in agreement and ready with a diplomatic initiative for dialogue, understanding and agreement, “said the Venezuelan president, during his participation in the opening of the judicial year, at the seat of the Tribunal Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ), in Caracas.

Orinoco Tribune operates without any advertising. We are not funded by any governments, think tanks, or large institutions. Our operations are entirely funded by readers like you. Our most generous donors have been targeted by the US for supporting socialist causes or are financially struggling. As a result, their accounts have been frozen, cutting off a significant revenue stream and severely threatening the sustainability of Orinoco Tribune.

We urge our readers and supporters, especially those not currently doing so, to help us with small donation (such as US $5 or $10/month) via Patreon, via Paypal/Credit-Card/crypto or via paper checks. Readers and supporters like you will allow us to continue bringing you progressive and hard-hitting news from Latin America, the Global South, and the world.

Help us reach our goal of $650 in monthly Patreon donations. We are counting on you as our only source of financial support!
