Now, Roberta Jacobson, undersecretary of the Department of State for Latin America, during a press conference, in the Center of Studies Brookings, of the American capital, on having tackled the matters of the VIIth Summit of the Americas to be celebrated in Panama next 10th and 11th, has expressed her "disappointment" for the reaction provoked in Latin America by the sanctions and decrees against the Chávez homeland.

She has complained about the exercise of the solidarity based on the "rhetoric" and that the tone used by the Latin-American leaders “demonize“ the United States as if this was the source of the problems in Venezuela.

“It disappointed me that there were no more countries that support the Executive Order”, she said.

Sincerely, I wonder what reaction Ms. Jabconson expected from Venezuela or from any other country on this side of the Río Bravo that should accuse the President of the biggest military potency of this epoch of being “an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national safety of the United States” of North America.

20 years ago it was known what would come after such a declaration, which would be something like what happened in Dominican Republic, against Caamaño, in Panama, against Noriega, in Granada and other peoples of the region that saw their soil trampled by the marines and the death to hundreds of its citizens under the fire of the grapeshot.

It is natural that now it is expected something similar, or a blocking action, like the applied to Cuba, or the destabilizer "guarimbas", because sometimes it gives the impression that the North American governments remain stopped in the time, if we bear in mind the politics reiteration with Latin America and the Caribbean that long ago were in disuse, that the stage of the Monroe doctrine.

Like it was buried the ALCA, (free-trade agreement of the Americas) that they wanted to impose on us, there get up every day death certificates of the neoliberalism, which is the letter of victory of the imperialism, but that only brings to the peoples famine and misery and underdevelopment, but facing them, raises the ALCA (Alliance Bolivariana for the Peoples of America-TCP), the Community of the Latin-American and Caribbean States (CELAC), UNASUR, MERCOSUR, integration organisms to preserve the peace, the complementarity in the economic and commercial development of the region.
