COMMITMENT TO HUMAN RIGHTS AND HEMISPHERIC SECURITY
February 25, 2005
Ambassador Javier Sancho Bonilla, presenting credentials today as Costa Rica’s new Permanent Representative to the Organization of American States (OAS), renewed his nation’s commitment to the regional Organisation and the inter-American system as well as to the defense and promotion of human rights, democracy and hemispheric security.
The new envoy delivered his accreditation letters to Acting Secretary General Luigi R. Einaudi, conveying greetings from President Abel Pacheco and Foreign Affairs Minister Roberto Tovar. The brief ceremony at which Ambassador Sancho Bonilla presented credentials followed private discussions he held with Ambassador Einaudi.
In welcoming the new envoy, the Acting Secretary General noted Costa Rica’s contribution to the hemispheric agenda. He made particular mention of the Central American nation’s longstanding leadership on the defense of human rights, the promotion of democracy and in “the quest for sound inter-Americanism based on the dignity of democratically-organized countries.”
A career diplomat, Ambassador Javier Sancho Bonilla has held a variety of senior positions prior to this appointment, including as Director General of Foreign Policy with his country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and as Ambassador in Brazil, Korea and Thailand. He has represented his government at numerous international conferences, including as head of delegation to the Conference of National Coordinators of the Rio Group, held in Santiago, Chile, in March 2001.
