The Permanent Council of the OAS will meet Tuesday to discuss the acceptance of Juan Guaidó's envoy as representative of Venezuela

The Organization of American States (OAS) reported that its Permanent Council will consider Tuesday when he accepts as representative of Venezuela Juan Guaidó's envoy, recognized by more than 50 countries as interim president, in defiance of the dictatorship of Nicolás Maduro.

The body will meet in special session at its headquarters in Washington, DC at 12 noon (GMT), at the request of Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Paraguay and Peru to discuss if he approves the appointment of Gustavo Tarre as a representative to this organization, according to the call published Monday on the website of the organization.

On April 1, the US Ambbadador to the OAS, Carlos Trujillo, had planned that will do its utmost to have the agency recognize Tarre as representative of Venezuela, designated by Guaidó as his envoy to this body.

Trujillo badumed the presidency of the Permanent Council of the OAS today, which allowed him to greater ability to decide which projects are put to the vote.

The block that puts pressure on the Chavez regime seeks to approve the role of Tarre before April 27, when Venezuela's withdrawal from the agency would be effective, two years after the Maduro regime demanded its departure, growing diplomatic encirclement and loss of support from several countries.

The The resolution that will be considered on Tuesday raises the approval of the appointment of Tarre to make it clear that the Maduro government, which has badumed a second term until 2025, "lacks legitimacy" and so his officials do not have it either.

The text indicates that the last General Assembly of the OAS, the supreme organ of the organization, declared illegal the elections for which Maduro was re-elected last June. She recalls that the Permanent Council ignored Maduro on January 10 and stressed the Constitution power of the National Assembly (Parliament), democratically elected in 2015.

Tarre, representing Guaidó and after two agreements approved by the National Assembly on May 22, 2017 and January 2, 2019, officially presented to the OAS on March 8 a communication in which the Leader of the Opposition had ratified the decision continue in the body.

Trujillo was optimistic that a resolution authorizing Gustavo Tarre's access to Venezuelan headquarters would obtain the required 18 votes. "We have many friends very interested in the subject Venezuela "said the US Delegate to Journalists after a brief ceremony during which he badumed the rotating presidency of the OAS Permanent Council in the next quarter. "Some do not recognize Guaidó, but know that what is happening in Venezuela is unacceptable."
