     Como especie de ruego, o sabedor de lo que viene o se habrá de imponer de forma inexorable, o acaso por ser presa de un delirio ahistórico –la invasión a República Dominicana de 1965– Leonel Fernández, ex presidente dominicano, pide de la OEA “cierta cautela” al invocar para Venezuela la Carta Democrática Interamericana.

     As a kind of plea, or knowing what is coming or will be imposed inexorably, or perhaps because he was prey to an ahistorical delirium – the invasion of the Dominican Republic in 1965 – Leonel Fernández, former Dominican president, asks the OAS “certain caution” when invoking the Inter-American Democratic Charter for Venezuela.
