Correa insults us and offends us: Dante Caputo

Ecuadorian Foreign Minister, Ricardo Patiño, said that Correa will not apologyze over his statements on AMIA’s case.

With accusations such as “nonsense“, “nonsense that becomes complicity” and use of “sophisticated forms of sophistry“, Dante Caputo, former Foreign Minister of Argentina in the government of Raul Alfonsin (1983-1989), analyzes in an article entitled “Lord Correa do not return, “published in the Perfil Newspaper, of Buenos Aires and reproduced by El Universo Newspaper, of Guayaquil, in today’s edition (12-12-12), statements made in previous days by the Ecuadorian president, during a visit to Argentina, about the terrorist attack against the AMIA and the government of Iran.

The political scientist and diplomat says it is “nonsense” to make comparisons on the number of dead “to lessen the severity of the events” and that “the foolishness becomes complicity when applying the logic of President Correa “to defend Iran and interests.

Dante Caputo says the Ecuadorian president has insulted him by defending “an activist who denies the Holocaust” (Mahmoud Ahmadinejad) and that “because of all these things, Mr. Correa, do not return to my country. You offend us. “(MZ)
