By: Heidy Morin Rueda. Sunday, 14 de noviembre de 2010, 10:02 Managua, Nov 14 (Prensa Latina) President of Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega said that to his government the Organization of American States has lost all credibility and considers the possibility to leave the hemispheric organization.

The president said being in the OAS has no sense, after evaluating the session held yesterday in Washington by the Standing Committee of that organization, to discuss the border dispute triggered by Costa Rica against Nicaragua.

He stated that the meeting was manipulated as part of a previously prepared plan to impose conditions on Nicaragua, and that the leadership of Colombia in the discussions was notable, followed by Honduras and Costa Rica.

The resolution adopted yesterday at the OAS includes, among other recommendations, the request to the two countries to "avoid the presence of armed or security forces in the area where their presence could create tension."

In this regard, the President confirmed, once again, that the army and police will not be removed from the national territory that Costa Rica claims as its own and there it combats drug gangs who use the corridor to move drug shipments from Colombia to the north of the continent.

This has become a battle between drug trafficking and those who fight it and do not want Nicaragua to continue fighting the drug traffickers, said the president.hr/hmr/agp Modificado el ( domingo, 14 de noviembre de 2010 )
