Caracas - Venezuela''s withdrawal from the OAS claims the Bolivarian ideals of sovereignty and independence, established in the 1999 Constitution, constitutional lawyer Hermann Escarra said here during an interview broadcast by the Venezolana de Television channel.

'It is an unpublished fact, but it does it by claiming its sovereignty and independence. We are returning to the thought of Simon Bolivar, who always dreamed, thought, imagined, and wished the idea of the Latin American integration, 'Escarra stressed last night during the Dossier program, led by journalist Walter Martinez.

According to the jurist, the decision adopted by the Bolivarian government yesterday 'is a return to the doctrine of El Libertador, Simon Bolivar, is the fulfillment of article one of our Constitution, about the respect to our self-determination, sovereignty, non-intervention and international doctrine.'

Escarra stated that without doubt, Venezuela's withdrawal from the Organization of American States (OAS) 'is an act of State, rather than government, in which the immediate history of our country, in the concert of the nations, will be characterized.'

The Venezuelan government announced the beginning of the withdrawal from the OAS -with the surrender of the Letter of Resignation to the international organization-, after that organization's secretary general, Luis Almagro, and a group of governments in the region boost a campaign to promote foreign military intervention.

The Venezuelan lawyer stressed that Almagro and a group of allies that serves the imperial vision, placed Venezuela in a complex and difficult situation.

He reiterated that the only way to resolve the political differences in Venezuela is through the national dialogue, convened by the Bolivarian government since 2016.

'The choice is the dialogue. There is no way (...) I am one of those who believes that we can talk about everything, but within the framework of the Constitution,' Escarra stressed.
