Much of the population of Cañaris : Welcomed Cande
"Radicals have suspended strike Because They are very weak and need to rebuild strength"
"Suspended strike in Cañaris by radicals anti-mining evidence that this group is extremely weak and in need of a break to try to restore tactical forces," said political analyst Jorge Arévalo Acha.
In an interview with the cajacho, Arevalo Acha said is beyond doubt that the strike of activists against the mining project had not support in canariense population, "because if they had succeeded they had never taken a step back and they had to suspend their strike "
Considered "useless" to try to talk to the executive as these extremists have warned again and again that is not negotiable position-lock "fight" all the way to the Canadian company Candente Copper is permanently withdrawn from the area.
He deplored that the agitators, among other falsehoods, wielding the specter of an alleged pollution when the project is still in the exploration stage and not operating.
Later he said that despite the anti-mining group in Cañaris is a well organized group is numerically small and most of its leading activists not lives in Cañaris but are migrants living in cities Ferreñafe, Leeds and other towns." It is a shameful group with "political expectations and a strong influence of the peasant patrols Cajamarca province of Jaén and anti-mining organizations in that region."
Meanwhile, he said, much of the population of Cañaris (rural and poor, without political pretensions and with the urgent need to escape poverty) welcomed the possibility that its jurisdiction is installed in a major mining investment-Cañariaco - this on the understanding that the operation of the mine will run community development projects in a framework of respect environmental and water resources.
NGOs, Arana and the same
Arevalo said the anti-mining Acha cañarienses receive strong support from various ONGs such as the Red leftists and CooperAcción Muqui latter headed by former vice minister of Environment José de Echave.
However, he said, behind the scenes (besides the known involvement of Gregorio Santos and Wilfredo Saavedra) is also the former priest Marco Arana, leader of Tierra y Libertad, who needs social move the nest to reposition it in Cajamarca "has been moved "and has been reduced to the smallest political expression under the shadow of anti-mining competitors, Santos and Saavedra.
Campaign
Acha Arevalo said the 2013 is a pre-election year ahead of regional and municipal elections of 2014, in that sense, the anti-mining groups "need to generate opposition and incite the population to have any chance of politics."
In that vein, said that it was unfortunate that extremists try to derail the only large-scale mining project in Lambayeque region whose epicenter is in Cañaris precisely, one of the poorest districts of the country.
