The president of Bolivia , Evo Morales , said that among the measures to be undertaken by these facts demanding international organizations to the United States. "I want to announce that we will prepare an international demand , international courts for Barack Obama to be convicted of crimes against humanity ," said Bolivian dignitary .
In this regard , the Head of State explained that the the United States violated four international standards by prohibiting the Venezuelan presidential aircraft overflight in the airspace of Puerto Rico : Human Rights , International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, Convention on Special Missions and the Vienna Convention.
President Morales said the lawsuit seeks to " defend the rights of peoples and states " since the United States " overboard with arrogance to continue humiliating not only antimperialistas presidents and governments , but their own allies with espionage."
He argued that " we do not accept and will not allow in the future this kind of intimidation , criminal facts when they do not respect international four standards " and added that the U.S. " is a criminal that threatens life, against international rights."
That's right. Apparently Nicky Maduro was denied the right to fly over Puerto Rico, instead forced to fly several dozen miles, experiencing an inconvenience approaching almost 15 minutes. This is a crime against humanity, in a league with poison gas attacks and genocide.
Evo Morales will see that justice be done!
Original text:
El presidente de Bolivia, Evo Morales, informó que entre las medidas que emprenderá por estos hechos está demandar ante organismos internacionales a Estados Unidos. Quiero comunicar que vamos a preparar una demanda internacional, ante tribunales internacionales para que Barack Obama sea condenado por delitos de lesa humanidad, afirmó el dignatario boliviano.
En ese sentido, el jefe de Estado refirió que Estados Unidos violó cuatro normas internacionales al prohibir el sobrevuelo del avión presidencial venezolano en el espacio aéreo de Puerto Rico. Explicó que estas son Derechos Humanos, Pacto de Derechos Civiles y Políticos, Convención sobre Misiones Especiales y la Convención de Viena.
El Presidente Morales sostuvo que la demanda busca defender los derechos de los pueblos y de los Estados ya que Estados Unidos exagera con su prepotencia de seguir humillando no solamente a los presidentes y gobiernos antiiperialistas, sino a sus propios aliados con espionaje.
Sostuvo que no aceptamos y no permitiremos en el futuro esta clase de amedrentamientos, de hechos criminales, cuando no respetan cuatro normas internacionales y agregó que su par estadounidense es un criminal que atenta contra la vida, contra los derechos internacionales.

(48,181 posts)They are so easy to make fun of. Plus we ignore international treaty obligations and we refused to sign on to the international criminal court. It is so much fun to be an exceptionally arrogant super power.

(68,868 posts)a crime against humanity and call for an elected leader to be put in prison as a result.
Morales deserves to be mocked not because Bolivia is small, but because he's an objectively stupid gasbag.
In short, it's fun to make fun of people who are so stupid and full of themselves that they are funny.

(68,868 posts)Washington told Venezuela Thursday night that permission was granted even though the request had not been properly submitted, State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said.
Maduro said in a post on Twitter at about 10:30 p.m. local time (11 p.m. ET) Thursday that he had left Venezuela for Beijing.
Earlier in the day, Caracas said the United States had banned Maduro's jet from flying through U.S. airspace en route to a state visit in China this weekend, calling it an act of aggression
So, Maduro and Morales are even dumber than I thought.
I had Morales pegged as dumber than Bush, but he's approaching Louie Gohmert territory.
