Mesa in New York Written on September 21, 2004, by Eddie.
President Carlos Mesa is scheduled to address the United Nations on Wednesday. Among the topics he is expected to address include the Referendum results, the ongoing diplomatic struggle to regain access to the sea, and the current state of Bolivia.
He also appeared on CNN where he was asked:
CNN: - Cuéntenos ¿qué ha sido lo más difícil en esta labor presidencial del primer año?MESA: - Hemos heredado un país con una fuerte convulsión interna y sobre todo con una relación quebrada entre Estado y sociedad. Vivimos en medio de tensiones y de demandas muy fuertes. Con respeto a los derechos humanos, que es lo más difícil, los resultados demuestran que es posible negociar, solucionar los conflictos sin que tengamos que buscar la represión o contar con víctimas humanas.
That pretty much summed up his first year in office.
