Felipe Cáceres García,
sindicalista, líder cocalero,
Viceministro de Defensa Social,
Gobierno Nacional de Bolivia,
La Paz, 10 de Enero de 2007
Il cerchio di Bolivia si è "apparentemente" chiuso ... ci sono voluti 3 mesi ... quasi "in moviola", dal 22 ottobre 2006 al 14 gennaio 2007 ... nell'aria rarefatta del 4000 metri di La Paz ...
Un ringraziamento di cuore a Felipe Cáceres García, attuale "Viceministro de Defensa Social", per avermi accolta, con l'amicizia e il "compañerismo" di sempre, non contaminato dal potere, vissuto como vero servizio al Popolo ... per avermi ospitata nel suo "Viceministerio" ... per aver adempiuto un dovere di giustizia, nel percorso della mia riabilitazione civile.
Ci sono voluti 3 mesi, ma ho avuto nelle mani tutti i documenti che provano la mia assoluta innocenza nei fatti del 1994 (vedi Capitolo 23 di questo Blog), la trasparenza e radicalità delle mie azioni e la coerenza del mio schieramento a fianco dei "cocaleros" ...
E' fuor di dubbio che 12 anni fà rimasi imperturbabile davanti ai tentativi di ricatto ed alle provocazioni mirate a farmi denunciare i miei "compañeros cocaleros" ... soprattutto i leaders ... ed ... Evo Morales Ayma ... "in primis" ...
I miei accusatori e nemici dei "cocaleros" aspettavano come "oro colato" - e fecero ogni pressione per ottenerlo - qualunque accenno di denuncia da parte mia contro i leaders cocaleros, che fosse vincolo col narcotraffico internazionale o sovversione, per intrappolarli ... con un interesse morboso per la mia collaborazione con Evo, di cui ritenevano fossi una delle persone più vicine ... Se fossi caduta nella trappola del ricatto e della paura ... e non fu facile reggere!!! ... forse ... ora ... Evo non sarebbe Presidente ...
Sono rimasta "incorruttibile", a costo di qualunque rischio, nonostante le minacce "pesanti" ... con la certezza di guadagnarmi un posticino come "compañera" in quel mondo "campesino cocalero" - ora in un provvidenziale momento storico favorevole ... - quel mondo tanto lontano dalle mie origini, a cui mi sono data senza riserve ...
Purtroppo pare che non mi sia servito a nulla ...
Felipe Cáceres García, per telefono, in luglio 2006, mi trasmise l'invito del Presidente Evo a tornare in Bolivia per continuare a lavorare sulla Valorizzazione della Coca, sulla scia dei 10 anni di studio ed esperienza passati nel Cusco, dopo l'espulsione dalla Bolivia ...
Eppure Evo non mi ha nemmeno ricevuta ... mi ha ignorata nel modo più indifferente ... come se fossi un fantasma riaffiorato da un passato che non si vuole scomodare ...
... solo un rapido fortuito momento di qualche secondo, alle celebrazioni ufficiali del suo compleanno nel Chapare ... ha segnato di gelo l'unico incontro, pur nella calura opprimente della selva più umida del Pianeta ...
Si saranno intesi male tra di loro Felipe ed Evo? ... E' solo "una" delle mille domande rimaste senza risposta nella mia delusione senza rimedio ...
Ho accolto il tacito suggerimento (¿?) di "accontentarmi della giustizia fatta" ... senza pubblica enfasi, per "evitare problemi" ...
Certo che ... a buttarmi sulla prima pagina dei giornali come "terrorista" nell'agosto 1994 ... sono stati tutti celerissimi ... ma è sicuro (quasi ... ) che nessuno si prenderà il disturbo di chiudere pubblicamente il cerchio, correggendo un errore storico ... pesantemente ingiusto e penalizzante ... per me ...
Riconfermo la mia riconoscenza a Felipe, per la disponibilità sua, della sua famiglia e dei collaboratori del suo "Viceministerio"... e confermo di aver trovato in lui "il vero uomo chiave", indispensabile ed insostituibile, del Governo Nazionale Boliviano attuale, con una rara capacità di districare situazioni conflittive ... "ad alta tensione" ... mantenendo intatti i valori e le relazioni umane, con un sorriso di condivisione al momento opportuno ...
Grazie, Felipe, "compañero y buen hermano" :-) ... !!!
... ma per me ... il capitolo "Bolivia 1994" ... non è ancora ... "in pace" ...
Forse, chissa`... un giorno tornerà su "un tavolo comune" ... per essere ricomposto nell'armonia della vera giustizia e solidarietà, così radicate nel mondo andino-amazzonico ... perchè non può rimanere "solo mia" l'inquietante domanda:
... mah ... allora!!! ... Gli ideali, il "compañerismo", la "lucha" e la persecuzione condivise e sofferte ... i sogni dei Popoli e delle Culture senza frontiera ... si perdono cosí ... nei meandri di ... "Palazzo"... ?????????
Mi círculo de Bolivia se ha "aparentemente" cerrado ... me ha tomado 3 meses ... casi "en cámara lenta", desde el 22 de Octubre 2006 hastasel 14 de Enero 2007 ,,, en el aire de los 4000 metros de La Paz ...
Le agradezco de todo corazón ... "sonqoymanta" ... al compañero Felipe Cáceres García, actual "Viceministro de Defensa Social", por haberme recibido, con amistad y compañerismo, como antaño, sin contaminación del Poder, llevado como verdadero servicio hacia el Pueblo ... por haberme acogido en su "Viceministerio" ... por haber cumplido con un deber de justicia, en el camino de la rehabilitación de mis derechos civiles.
Me ha tomado 3 meses todo el proceso, pero he llegado a tener en mis manos todos los documentos que comprueban mi absoluta inocencia en los hechos de 1994 (ver Capítulo 23 de este Blog), la transparencia y radicalidad de mis acciones y la coherencia de mi posición, a lado de los cocaleros ... hasta las extremas consecuencias ...
Está fuera de duda el hecho que hace 12 años me mantuve inamovible ante todos los intentos de chantaje ... las provocaciones orientadas a que denunciara a mis compañeros cocaleros ... sobretodo a los líderes ... y ... a Evo Morales Ayma ... "in primis" ...
Mis acusadores y enemigos de los cocaleros hubiesen aceptado como "verdad sagrada" - e hicieron todo esfuerzo para lograrlo - cualquier mínimo detalle de una denuncia mía en contra de los líderes cocaleros, sea por narcotráfico internacional o por subversión, para atraparlos.
Hubo un interés morboso sobre mi colaboración con Evo, en el intento de delatarlo, dado que me consideraban una de las personas más alegadas a él ... No fue fácil para mí aguantar y resistir bajo esa presión, pero lo logré y ... quizás ... si yo hubiese caído en la trampa del chantaje y del miedo ... ahora Evo no sería Presidente ...
Me mantuve "incorruptible", a costa de cualquier riesgo, a pesar de las amenazas "pesadas" ... en la certeza de ganarme un campito como "compañera", en aquel mundo campesino cocalero, actualmente en una providencial coyuntura histórica ... aquel mundo tan lejos de mis raíces, al cual me entregué sin reparo ...
Sin embargo parece que no me sirvió de nada ...
Felipe Cáceres García, en julio 2006, por teléfono, me transmitió la invitación del Presidente Evo para volver a Bolivia y continuar el trabajo sobre la Valorización de la Coca, aprovechando mis 10 años de estudios y experiencias en el Cusco, luego de la expulsión de Bolivia ...
Sin embargo Evo no me recibió ... me ignoró de la manera más absoluta ... como si fuera un fantasma que reaparece de los recobejos de un pasado que ya no se quiere despertar ...
... sólo un rápido casual momento de pocos segundos, en las celebraciones oficiales de su cumpleaños en el Chapare ... ha empapado de hielo el único encuentro, aunque en la calura bochornosa de la selva más húmeda del Planeta ...
¿Se harán malententido entre ellos dos, Felipe y Evo? ... Esta es sólo una de las miles de preguntas sin respuesta en mi decepción sin remedio ...
Acaté la sugerencia silenciosa (¿?) de "contentarme con la justicia hecha" ... sin pública énfasis, para "ahorrar líos" ...
Es cierto que ... para echarme a la primera plana de los diarios como "terrorista" han estado todos muy listos ... pero estoy segura (casi ... ) que nadie se tomará la pena de cerrar públicamente el círculo, corrigiendo un error histórico ... pesadamente injusto y penalizador ... para mí ...
Reitero mi gratitud a Felipe, por la disponibilidad suya personal, de su familia y de sus colaboradores en el "Viceministerio" ... y confirmo haber visto en él "el verdadero hombre clave", indispensable e irremplazable, del Gobierno Nacional Boliviano actual, con una formidable habilidad en desembrollar situaciones conflictivas ... "de alta ensión", manteniendo intactos los valores y las relaciones humanas, con una sonrisa de solidaridad en cada debido momento ...
¡Gracias, Felipe, compañero y buen hermano :-) ... !!!
... sin embargo para mí ... el capítulo "Bolivia 1994" ... no está todavía ... "en paz" ...
Quién sabe, quizás ... un día volverá a "una mesa común" ... para ser recompuesto en la armonía de la verdadera justicia y solidaridad, raíces del mundo andino-amazónico ... porque no puede quedar "sólo mía" la angustiante pregunta:
... pero ... ¡¡¡entonces!!! ... Los ideales, el compañerismo, la lucha y las persecuciones compartidas y sufridas ... los sueños de los Pueblos y de las Culturas sin fronteras ... ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿se pierden así en los recobejos de "Palacio" ???????
My circle in
Bolivia got “apparently” to its end ... It took me 3 months ... almost "in
a slow show", since October 22, 2006 hasta January 14, 2007 … breathing
the light air of the 4000 meters of La Paz ...
My very thanks "sonqoymanta" [from “deep in the heart”, in quechua
language] ... to a good companion such as Felipe Cáceres García, presently the
"Vice-minister of Social Defense", for welcoming me, friendly and
spontaneously, as formerly we used, uncontaminated by the reached levels of
Power, always moved by his commitment in serving his People ... for opening to
me the doors of his “Vice-ministery" ... for doing so much to clear up my
position in Bolivia, re-establishing justice and giving me back my social
dignity, through my civil rights.
All the process took me 3 months, but I finally got in my hands all the
official papers proving my absolute innocence in the socio-political happenings
occurred in August 1994 (Chapter 23 of this Blog), as well as the transparency
and coherence of my actions, standing firmly by the side of coca growers … till
the extreme possible outcomes ...
It’s out of question that 12 years ago I never stepped back in front of any
intent aiming to induce me to denounce my companions, the peasants coca growers
... mainly their leaders ... and ... Evo Morales Ayma ... on the top of the
list … "in primis" ...
My accusers and the ennemies of coca growers were ready to accept as “the very
truth” any mínimum detail I could provide them with, about a possible
involvement of the coca growers in the international network of narcotraffic or
into the different rebels movements in army.
A very sticky interest was shown about my cooperation with Evo, considering me
as one of the persons closer to him ... It has not been easy to keep steady,
trying to handle the almost unbearable situation I found myself deepened in. If
I hadn’t made it or I had got trapped by fear and pressure put on me … maybe …
Evo Morales had never become … “President of Bolivia” ...
I stayed "uncorruptible", at any risk, despite the heavy
threatens ... trusting in a sure price for me, like gaining a place in
the andean world of the sacred coca plant, actually in a favorable historical
moment ... in that world so far from my motherland, in that world I had
committed myself to, without any back toughts or reserve ...
Anyhow ... all my efforts seem to have be useless ...
Felipe Cáceres García called me by phone, on July 2006, to let me know about an
invitation of President Evo Morales to return to Bolivia and continue my job
about values of Coca, taking advantage of all the experiences and studies I had
collected during my past 10 years in Cusco (Peru’) ...
When I was finally there, Evo didn’t even received me ... I got absolutely
ignored by him, as if I had just become a ghost, emerging from the dark
of a past nobody wants to welcome back ...
I just got a casual quick moment of a few seconds, during the celebrations of
his birthday, in the region of Chapare ... and our “face-to-face” is impressed
in my memory as cold as only ice can be, despite the hot weather in the very
humid jungle of Chapare ...
?A misunderstanding between Evo and Felipe had caused that so frustrating
experience? ... This is just one of the several questions without any answer,
still standing in my deep deception ...
I follow and put into action the silent (??) suggestion "to be satisfied
with “the justice” I had got”... and “to return to Italy, avoiding any contact
with the medias and any public emphazis about the past events”, in order “to
save problems to the National Government of Bolivia” ...
I remember that in the happenings of August 1994 all the medias – mainly the
bolivian ones – were very fast in splashing me on the first page of the
newspapers, with some very impressive titles, including “terrorism, subversion,
etc etc" ... and I could do very little to clarify my situation and
position; but 12 years later, I was sure that none would have disturbed the
medias to close officially the circle and recognize what has been wrongly
and far from justice written, spoken and published in Bolivia and abroad.
So I had been the only one to pay, on my own, the price of an historical error
... which had heavily affected my life projects and all my dreams at once ...
Here again my deep gratitude to Felipe, for his personal friendship and
openhearted availability, as well as for the support and good feelings of all
his family and the staff of the "Viceministery" ...
I confirm my impression to see him as “the very key man”, indispensable and
unbreakable, of the actual National Government of Bolivia, showing an amazing
capability in dealing with social conflicts, always providing suggestion of
“possible solutions", attentive to maintain healthy and firm the human
values and relations, with a simple smile of solidarity, whenever needed ...
!Thanks, Felipe, good companion faithfull as a good brother :-) ... !!!
However, in my opinion... “my” chapter of "Bolivia 1994" ... cannot
rest ... "in peace" ... yet …
?Who knows? … maybe ... sometimes, somewhere … all the story will set up again
on a “round table” ... to get definitely composed in the harmony of true
justice and solidarity, the ancestral strong roots of the andean-amazonic
culture ... because I think it’s too much “only for me, alone” to bear the
question, pending as “a dilemma”:
