Anti-terrorist association asks Chávez to extradite ETA members |
2010-05-19 |
President of the Association of Victims of Terrorism (AVT) in Spain, Juan Antonio GarcÃa Casquero accused on Tuesday Venezuela's President Hugo Chávez of being a "sponsor" of terrorism in Latin America. In a press conference together with the head of a group called Democratic Platform of Venezuelans in Madrid and the leader of the Ibero-American Front for Freedom (FIAL), GarcÃa Casquero described as "intolerable mockery of the Spanish people" the fact that Hugo Chávez refuses to extradite to Spain several members of Basque terrorist group ETA whom he "shelters" in his country. GarcÃa Casquero also urged the Latin American leaders gathered on Tuesday in the EU-LAC Madrid Summit to destroy terrorist "sanctuaries" in the Americas, Efe reported. |
