The
Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José
Miguel Insulza, expressed his condolences to the government and people
of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela on the occasion of the sad
passing of President Hugo Chávez Frías.
"It is a time of great
sorrow for Venezuelans and we stand with them, together with all the
peoples of the region," said the OAS Secretary General.
"We are
certain that Venezuelans will know to come together in difficult times
like these and move in peace and democracy toward the future," said
Insulza.
The flags of the OAS have been placed at half mast and a
special meeting of the OAS Permanent Council will be convened in memory
of President Chávez.
