MIGUEL ANGEL RODRIGUEZ E.
PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF COSTA RICA

San José, Costa Rica
May 29, 2001
Mr. David Rodríguez, Coordinator
Cuban Exiles Union in Peru

Dear Mr. Rodríguez:

The Government of Costa Rica is highly grateful for the solidarity shown by you in face of the insults heaved against my country by Comandante Fidel Castro.

The decission I made in Geneve last month follows my firm belief that respect for the human dignity values and promoting the compliance of the international agreements protecting the human rights, are more important than the dogma of the defense of national sovereignities.

The massive violation of the fundamental rights of an entire population is not a domestic matter, it is a matter which must interest all humans as a whole in dedication to constructing a more just and solidary world.

Please receive my sincere expression of consideration and esteem.

Miguel Angel Rodríguez Echevarría
President of the Republic of Costa Rica
