THE PLENARY OF THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY

Considering:

What, the Government of Colombia has resolved to allow the use

by U.S. forces of seven bases or

military installations located in its territory;

What, UNASUR, on August 10, 2009, in the city of

Quito noted with concern the installation of

important forces " U.S. on Colombian soil and

put it on its agenda of topics to discuss in the next

meeting of this organization to be held in Argentina on August 28,

What, contrary to what they maintain the governments of

Colombia and the United States this deployment goes much more

there than is necessary to replace the capacity of the Base

of Manta and it is disproportionate to the needs of the

fight against the guerrillas and drug trafficking, which are the

motives wielded by the government of President Alvaro

Uribe to reach the mentioned agreement. Such a situation

encourages fears that the real purpose of this

agreement is to sustain a geopolitical control strategy

of the hemisphere by the allied superpower;

What, the arms race and the presence of these forces

in Colombia threatens to upset the strategic balance in

South America, escalate the civil conflict that afflicts the

sister Republic, undermine the efforts being made by the

continent to set up a

regional security, conflict resolution, and peace system

democratic based on solidarity and the primacy of the

peaceful resolution of the causes of violence;

That this military agreement has provoked the rejection and fear

of the peoples of the Continent who see it as a threat

to the advancement of their struggles for democracy, peace and

social progress;

That this highly dangerous decision by President Alvaro

Uribe is given in circumstances in which his government and senior citizens

Colombian state officials insist on holding the

illegal and repudiable attack doctrine Preventive " and the

alleged right of your security forces to act

extra-territorially in your fight against terrorism and

other threats to your security;

What, the Constitution, in your article 416, concerning the

principles of International Relations, which I profess

our country, in its numerals 3 and 4 points out:

" 3. Condemns the interference of states in the affairs

internal states, and any form of

intervention, be armed incursion, aggression,

occupation or economic or military blockade,

4. Promotes peace, universal disarmament; condemns the

development and use of weapons of mass destruction and the

imposition of bases or facilities for purposes

military of states in the territory of others. ";

That, finally, the Colombian invitation to the U.S. forces

is made in the context of a serious deterioration

of Colombia's relations with its neighbors and especially

for Ecuador, with who diplomatic relations

remain broken; and,

In exercise of their attributions,

Resolves:

1. Repudiate and strongly reject the decision of the government of President Alvaro Uribe to allow an

important increase in the U.S. military presence

in its national territory.

2. Express deep concern about the harmful impact of this presence on the security and peace of the

region.

3. To express its opinion that an eventual agreement between Colombia and the United States seriously undermines the

effective and real peace building and integration efforts

South America, and that it would appear

to be destined for sabotage the training process of

UNASUR as well as other initiatives to achieve the

autonomy of our peoples.

4. To insist that a full restoration of relations between Colombia and Ecuador, as well as the

mutual trust between our states, can

be

if the Colombian Government reviews its unilateral

decision. In particular, it

agrees to insist on the need for Colombia

to respond favorably to the conditions posed by

the Government of Ecuador, in order to overcome the

serious aggression suffered by Ecuador on 1 In March of the

year 2008, and above all to emphasize the absolute

need for Colombia to expressly renounce to the

repudiable and illegal doctrine of the "Preventive Attack

Extratritorial", as well as to any policy that In

against the sovereignty of its neighbors, against the

international law and in against the principles

accepted by the International Community and that

regulate the coexistence between civilized peoples and

lovers of the law.
