Lords (as) Senators (as)
of the Federative Republic of Brazil
Through this letter, we turn to you to raise our support to Project approval Legislative Decree No. 115 by the U.S. Senate, which allows triple the compensation received by the neighboring country of Paraguay for the energy he gave to Brazil, generated by the Itaipu Binational Hydroelectric.
This is set in one of the clauses of the Binational Treaty, signed in 1973 by the then current dictatorships in our two countries. This raises background and lack of legitimacy that holds itself signed the Treaty and the need to advance your workout suited to the democratic era we are living now both Brazil and Paraguay.
In that sense, it is necessary to advance the just demands of the Paraguayan people that make the recovery of its sovereignty hydroelectric denied for nearly four decades, the free availability of energy generated, to achieve a fair price for that energy, full co-management of the binational research and audit and debt that is claimed and which is founded and deep suspicion of illegitimacy and illegality.
The Comptroller General of the Republic of Paraguay has faced research process that debt and has issued two opinions which declared illegal the generation of that debt, by differences in energy tariffs. Due to price below cost, in four years built up a debt of U.S. $ 4,194 million. The agreements reached between Brazil and Paraguay in 2009, former President Ignacio Lula da Silva pledged to keep in mind and discuss the results that emerged from that investigation. Therefore it is necessary for Brazil to advance to audit and investigate illegitimate debt, through the competent authorities, he still claims to Paraguay.
Time that the Brazilian State to start repaying the enormous historical debt, social and ecological have since the time of the War of the Triple Alliance with the brotherly people of Paraguay, a circumstance that is compounded by social and environmental impacts brought about by the construction and commissioning of the Itaipu Binational, with the displacement of peasant and indigenous communities from their land, flooding thousands of hectares and the consequent loss of biodiversity, as well as big business and acts of corruption that continue paying as much as the Paraguayan people the Brazilian people through illegitimate debt should not be honored.
Without more and hoping the Brazilian Senate approved the bill, which effectively provides for the construction of a true regional integration in the service of the brotherly peoples of Paraguay and Brazil, we close them carefully.
