Peru fails to win condemnation of Venezuela

SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic - The Organization of American States is wrapping up its annual General Assembly of 34 nations today as Peru backed down from its efforts to secure a condemnation of President Hugo Chávez's alleged intervention in its electoral affairs, diplomats said.

Although the initiative had enthusiastic U.S. backing, few other Latin American nations wanted to snarl the OAS's General Assembly of foreign ministers with an intensely controversial issue that many feel needs to be worked out bilaterally.

''The declaration to condemn Venezuela has failed,'' Venezuela's envoy to the OAS, Jorge Valero, told The Miami Herald. ``It didn't proceed because it was based on false allegations.''

8. What a bunch of sore losers this BFEE be.

Can't rig elections (at least not in other countries) nor can they hold coups in Latin America. So the BFEE blames the country which they tried election coups in, on, yes wait for it, trying to rig another country's election and overthrow the government. Stupid is as stupid does.
