“The best contribution for Colombia’s peace is helping us to fight these terrorists”, President Uribe says


“I think that the most important diplomatic task is to reiterate at every time the request for international community to help us in this fight”, said the President during a meeting with world’s experts in the fight against terrorism. He insisted in the need of doing an diplomatic academic work “in order to get help form the worls in this battle”.

Bogotá, March 31 (SP). “I tell this to my international community audience all the time: the best contribution for Colombia’s peace is helping us to fight these terrorists”, affirmed this Tuesday President Álvaro Uribe Vélez to experts in the fight against terrorism, gathered in Bogotá.

During the ‘Contemporary Antiterrorism Conference: Colombian Experience’, an event organized by the Ministry of Defense and the United States Embassy, the Head of State reiterated the request to the international community to support the fight against terrorism led by our country.

“I think that the most important diplomatic task is to reiterate at every time the request for international community to help us in this fight”, said the leader.

Uribe Vélez stated that this support must be “practical and efficient” and not remain in the protocolary ground.

“The support for Colombia was a protocol support, about giving condolences to Colombia for the tragedies, that has to be change for a practical support, an efficient one. Plan Colombia has been an example of efficient support” said the Head of State.

He insisted in the need of having the support chasing terrorist beyond the borders, because “terrorism has no frontiers. It seems like it has no intentions of do crime in one country, no intentions of kidnapping there, but the day that it needs to do it, it will”, pointed Uribe Vélez.

He added that “if these terrorists feel that they can hide in other places, without being fight then these terrorists will live in the process of postpone and postpone peace in Colombia”.

About the effects caused by the reality distortion, made by the diplomatic task of the guerrilla with the international community, the President explained that an effort must be done to show the criminal actions of these groups. 

“The effort that we must do in international dialogue, permanently, is the effort to show the reality that guerrillas’ diplomacy and its allies have deformed”.

Concerning to that – added the Head of State – “we have to do a penetrating diplomatic academic task, to get the world’s help in this battle”, he concluded.
