NACIONES UNIDAS, 23IX 19 (AP): Más de una docenade países latinoamericanos yEstados Unidos acordaron ellunes investigar y detener acolaboradores y altosfuncionarios del gobiernovenezolano de NicolásMaduro que se sospechacometieron delitos comotráfico de drogas, lavado dedinero y financiamiento delterrorismo.

Los diplomáticos, sin em-bargo, descartaron unaintervención militar trasreunirse en Nueva York, dondeesta semana se lleva a cabo laAsamblea General deNaciones Unidas.

La investigación ydetención de sospechososestá contemplada en elTratado Interamericano deAsistencia Recíproca (TIAR),también conocido comoTratado de Río, que data de laGuerra Fría y que varios paíseslatinoamericanos invocaronrecientemente en un esfuerzopor incrementar las presionesy forzar la salida de Maduro.

El ministro de RelacionesExteriores de Colombia,Carlos Holmes, dijo alconcluir la reunión del TIARque 16 naciones habíanvotado a favor de laresolución, que es decumplimiento obligatorio.

Uruguay fue el único quevotó en contra y Trinidad yTobago se abstuvo. Cuba no

CIUDAD DE MÉXICO,25 IX 19 (AP): El estadosureño de Oaxaca seconvirtió el miércoles en lasegunda entidad de Méxicoque permite la interrupcióndel embarazo en las primeras12 semanas de gestación.

La Legislatura local dijovía Twitter que la reforma alcódigo penal del estado fueaprobada con 24 votos a fa-vor y 12 en contra.

La organizacióndefensora de los derechosreproductivos Grupo deInformación enReproducción Elegida

estuvo presente.Se decidió formar grupos

de trabajo que compartiráninformación financiera sobreindividuos y entidadesvinculados con el gobiernode Maduro.

El objetivo es localizar ycongelar bienes en paísesdonde se podría estarescondiendo el producto delnarcotráfico y de actos decorrupción.

“Es un paso trascendental,de inmensa significación, enfavor de la paz“, dijo elcanciller Holmes.

El anuncio forma parte deuna ofensiva diplomáticacontra el gobierno deMaduro que incluyócondenas a las violacionesde los derechos humanos enVenezuela por parte delGrupo de Lima y de la UniónEuropea y que alcanzaráseguramente su puntoculminante el miércoles, enque los representanteslatinoamericanos sereunirán con el mandatarioestadounidense DonaldTrump.

No está claro hasta quépunto esta iniciativa puedeayudar a quebrar el apoyo delos militares a Maduro.

Más tarde, durante unencuentro con cancilleres delos países miembros de laAlianza Bolivariana para losPueblos de Nuestra América(ALBA), el ministro de

Relaciones Exteriores de Ven-ezuela, Jorge Arreaza, rechazóque países de América Latinay el Caribe se presten de“manera sumisa“ a lassupuestas pretensiones deWashington de “agredir“ aVenezuela, invocando“írritamente“ el TIAR.

La invocación del TIAR“representa una amenaza a lapaz y la seguridad de Venezu-ela, y de la región, con falsossupuestos, con falsas hipótesispara tratar de agredir a Venezu-ela“, dijo Arreaza en unadeclaración difundida por laestatal Venezolana deTelevisión.

Muchos de los signatariosdel Tratado de Río de 1947 yareconocen al líder opositorJuan Guaidó como elpresidente legítimo de Ven-ezuela, como se proclamó enenero, en su condición depresidente de la AsambleaGeneral, diciendo que Madurose había mantenido en el podera partir de un fraude electoral.Ya hay funcionarios que nopueden viajar o cuyos bienesfueron congelados, aunque noen forma colectiva.

El tratado dice que unaamenaza contra uno de lossignatarios debe ser tomadacomo una amenaza contratodos, pero los países quequieren ver el fin del gobiernode Maduro dijeron que buscanuna solución pacífica yHolmes manifestó que ni se

calificó la decisión comohistórica. La Ciudad deMéxico era hasta hoy elúnico lugar del país dondees legal el aborto voluntariodurante las primeras 12semanas.

Oaxaca es uno de losestados más pobres deMéxico y ha habidoprocesos penales contramujeres acusadas deabortar.

Únicamente el aborto encaso de violación es legal entodo México. Existen otrasexcepciones en algunosestados.

mencionó la posibilidad deuna cooperación militar du-rante un encuentro a puertascerradas llevado a cabo en unhotel de Manhattan bajofuertes medidas de seguridad.

Venezuela se retiró delTratado de Río en 2013, peroel grupo aceptó el pedido deadmisión de Guaidó, queenvió una delegación.

El líder opositor exiliadoJulio Borges, el principalasesor de Guaidó en materiade política exterior, dijo quecada país analizará quémedidas tomar para presionara Maduro.

Los países que buscan lasalida de Maduro dijeron quees imperioso contener la crisismigratoria venezolana.

“La crisis de los refugiadosy los migrantes venezolanosestá pasando a ser una de lascrisis humanitarias másgrandes de nuestros tiemposy su magnitud plantea grandesretos a la región”, declaró laUE a través de su Grupo deContacto Internacional(GCI) para Venezuela, querealizó una reunión de nivelministerial en Nueva York.

“Se calcula que unos 4,3millones de venezolanos sehan ido mayormente a paísesvecinos, que son los másafectados por la crisis”, dijo laUE, citando cifras de la ONU.

Agregó que “la únicasolución sostenible a la crisisvenezolana es política,

pacífica y democrática, queexcluya la fuerza, y a través deelecciones presidencialescreíbles y transparentes”.

Una delegación enviadapor Guaidó, reconocido comopresidente legítimo de Ven-ezuela por medio centenar depaíses, se reunió por la mañanacon la Alta Comisionada delas Naciones Unidas paraDerechos Humanos, MichelleBachelet, quien presentó hacepoco un informe crítico de lasituación en Venezuela.

“Es fundamental que secree una comisión deinvestigación que castiguecada una de las denuncias delinforme que usted (Bachelet)presentó sobre Venezuela. Nopodemos permitir másimpunidad, los crímenes de la

dictadura de Maduro debenser juzgados”, expresó JulioBorges, quien encabeza ladelegación.

En su informe Bachelet semostró “sumamentepreocupada por la magnitud yla gravedad de la repercusiónde la crisis actual sobre losderechos humanos, queconstituye además uninquietante factor dedesestabilización regional”.

“Las autoridades se hannegado a reconocer lasdimensiones y la gravedad dela crisis en materia de cuidadosmédicos, alimentación yservicios básicos”, afirmó latambién expresidenta chilena.

TheDIA has made a great selec-tion for the position. She willhelp the museum to grow andmake its art

collection more accessibleto the general public.”

La Prensa October 4, 2019

CIUDAD DE MÉXICO,25 IX 19 (AP): Lasautoridades mexicanasobtuvieron nuevos datos quepodrían ayudar a saber eldestino de los 43 estudiantesde magisterio desaparecidoshace cinco años en el sur deMéxico y, por eso, haniniciado una búsqueda enbasurero distinto al queconcentró en un inicio laatención de losinvestigadores.

La exfiscal colombianaÁngela Buitrago, integrantedel grupo de la ComisiónInteramericana de DerechosHumanos (CIDH) que daapoyo técnico al actualgobierno mexicano en susinvestigaciones, dijo a TheAssociated Press que elnuevo basurero “está en elepicentro de la acción” trasla desaparición de losestudiantes aquel 26 deseptiembre de 2014, yaunque no dio más detallesdijo que podrían obtenersedatos relevantes.

“Va a ser un golpe para lospadres cualquierinformación que salga deahí”, dijo Buitrago, quientambién fue parte de unprimer equipo de expertosde la CIDH que tras indagarel caso entre 2015 y 2016echó por tierra la versiónoficial de los hechossostenida por el anteriorgobierno mexicano, en la quese aseguró que los estudiantesfueron quemados en unbasurero de la localidad deCocula, en el estado sureñode Guerrero, y sus restosesparcidos en un río cercano.

El nuevo basurero selocaliza en la comunidad deTepecoacuilco, también enGuerrero, pero en direccióncontraria a Cocula en una delas posibles rutas que, segúnel informe de la CIDH,podrían haber tomado lossecuestradores de losmuchachos.

Buitrago dijo quecorresponderá a lasautoridades mexicanasinformar sobre cualquier datoconcreto que resulte de lasinvestigaciones en esebasurero y recordó que ya sehabía buscado en otrospuntos Tepecoacuilco sinhallar nada relevante.

“Estamos en espera de lainformación que se pudohaber obtenido en ese lugarporque son varias (las líneas)que no se habíaninvestigado”, afirmó el

miércoles Felipe de la Cruz,vocero de los padres, quieninsistió en la importación quecorroborar cualquier datonuevo que aparezca.

Tanto la antigua como lanueva fiscalía han hechodiversas búsquedasinfructuosas a lo largo de estoscinco años en diversos puntosde Guerrero. También hansido continuas lasmanifestaciones y protestasde los padres exigiendojusticia y que se llegue a laverdad, la última estemiércoles.

Los 43 estudiantes de laNormal Rural de Ayotzinapafueron secuestrados en laciudad de Iguala por policíaslocales, quienes losentregaron a miembros delcrimen organizado. Según latesis defendida por laadministración delexpresidente Enrique PeñaNieto (2012-2018), esas per-sonas trasladaron a los jóvenesal basurero de Cocula, 20kilómetros al suroeste deIguala, donde fueronincinerados y sus restosarrojados a un río cercano.

No obstante, el primergrupo de expertos de la CIDHdeterminó que no habíapruebas que acreditaran esaversión, basada entestimonios obtenidosmediante tortura, y denuncióla existencia deirregularidades yobstrucciones a la justicia,problemas en el debidoproceso que luego fueronavalados por equipos deNaciones Unidas y por lapropia justicia mexicana, queen junio de 2018 ordenóreponer toda la investigaciónporque “no fue pronta,efectiva, independiente niimparcial”.

De hecho, esos vicios en elproceso han hecho queprosperen una multitud deamparos y que más de 70 delos 143 detenidos vinculadosal caso hayan sido liberados,entre ellos, algunos de losprincipales sospechosos.

Según Buitrago, elgobierno de Andrés ManuelLópez Obrador ha avanzado“en propiciar espacios deapertura”, como la comisiónde la verdad creada en enero,para que personas clave en elmomento de los ataquescuenten su historia, y lafiscalía ya ha abierto unainvestigación por presuntasresponsabilidades penales delantiguo jefe de las pesquisas,

Tomás Zerón, y otrosinvestigadores aunquetodavía no ha fincado ningúncargo contra ellos.

La fiscalía no quiso hacerningún comentario sobreeste punto, pero el martes porla noche anunció en uncomunicado que se habíacitado a declarar al entoncesgobernador de Guerrero,Ángel Aguirre, a quien fuerasu secretario de seguridadpública, y el fiscal cuandoocurrieron los hechos y quelo harán la próxima semana.

Todos ellos ya handeclarado en la comisión dela verdad.

La fiscalía indicó tambiénque posteriormente, “secitará a declarar a losfuncionarios federales quehayan intervenido en estecaso”, que no mencionó pornombre, pero el subsecretariode Gobernación, AlejandroEncinas, había anunciadorecientemente la intenciónde que entre los investigadosestuviera el exprocuradorgeneral, Jesús MurilloKaram, quien calificó como“verdad histórica” la versiónoficial luego desacreditadainternacionalmente.

Los abogados de los pa-dres de los desaparecidosindicaron recientemente quese había conseguidoinformación valiosa denuevos testimoniosproporcionados por laPolicía Federal, algunos decuyos agentes estuvieronpresentes en el lugar de loshechos pero denunciaronque el ejército sigue todavíasin contestar más de uncentenar de preguntas sobrelos hechos ya que tambiénhubo militares en losescenarios de los ataques alos estudiantes.

Una de las líneas deinvestigación que estabapendiente de profundizarseera la conexión del caso conel tráfico de droga desdeIguala a Chicago. En estesentido, la fiscalía dijo tenerpruebas de telefonía queahora pretende que seanalicen “en toda sumagnitud”.

Además de los 43estudiantes desaparecidos, el26 de septiembre fueronasesinadas seis personas en laserie de ataques coordinadosen distintos puntos de Igualaque supusieron uno de loscrímenes de mayor impactode la historia reciente delpaís.

TORONTO, 25 IX 19 (AP):Meryl Streep dice que hay un“Darwinismo” en el momentoy no porque su más recientepelícula, la sátira de StevenSoderbergh sobre los PanamaPapers “The Laundromat“comience con hombres de lascavernas.

La actriz considera queestamos en una época en la quesolo el más fuerte sobrevive.

“¿Cómo nos hacemosfuertes para mantener nuestrosprincipios?, ¿cómo hacemoseso?”, dijo Streep. “Porqueaquellos sin principios quierenmarchar al frente y tomar elliderazgo, eso es lo que estápasando”.

Es una preocupación quecasi consume a Streep, una delas críticas más abiertas delpresidente Donald Trump. Yesto le ha dado forma a laspelículas que filma. “TheLaundromat“, al igual que suanterior película, el thrillersobre la libertad de prensa de2017 “The Post“, sobre lapublicación de los PentagonPapers sobre la guerra en Viet-nam, es un grito de guerra.

“Mi propio cerebro está tanlleno de exigencias y con todolo que realmente necesitadecirse y necesita hacerse”, dijoStreep. “Todo lo que tengo esmi talento para entretener y paratransmitir algo de formasvariadas y diferentes, es comotener niños: cualquier cosa quesirva para hacer que el mensajeentre”.

“The Laundromat“, que seestrena en cines el viernes ydebuta en Netflix el 18 deoctubre, es uno de los intentosmás audaces por responder a

LOS ANGELES, 24 IX 19(AP): Tom Hanks se haconvertido en uno de losactores más queridos de Hol-lywood por varios papelesentrañables, de “Big“(“Quisiera ser grande”) a“Forrest Gump“ y ahora sucarrera será reconocida conuno de los más importanteshonores en los Globos deOro del próximo año.

Hanks recibirá el premioCecil B. DeMille en losGlobos de Oro el 5 de enerode 2020, anunció el martesla Asociación de PrensaExtranjera de Hollywood(HFPA por sus siglas eninglés). El actor fue elogiadopor varios personajescautivadores en películascomo “Saving Private Ryan“(“Rescatando al soldadoRyan”), la saga de “ToyStory“, y la ganadora delGlobo de Oro “Cast Away“(“Náufrago”) para la queperdió 24 kilos (55 libras)para interpretar a un hombreperdido en una isla desierta.

El presidente de la HFPALorenzo Soria dijo en uncomunicado que Hankscautivó al público con“personajes ricos y alegres”.Agregó que el actor es unafuerza detrás de cámarascomo guionista, productor ydirector.

El premio DeMille esotorgado anualmente a un“individuo que haya tenidoun impacto increíble en elmundo del espectáculo”

Entre los galardonadosprevios destacan Jeff

Bridges, Oprah Winfrey,Morgan Freeman, MerylStreep, Jodie Foster, BarbraStreisand, Sidney Poitier yLucille Ball.

Hanks, de 63 años, ha sidogalardonado con cuatroGlobos de Oro y se dio aconocer con su papel en lapelícula “Splash“ de 1984,en la que interpretaba a unhombre que se enamora deuna sirena. Recibió su primerGlobo de Oro por “Big“, enla que interpretó a un chicode 13 años cuyo cuerpo seconvierte en el de un hombrede 35 años después de pedirun deseo.

El actor ganó un par deGlobos por “Philadelphia“(“Filadelfia”) y por “ForrestGump“, las cuales le valierontambién premios de laAcademia. Su trabajo comodirector para la miniserie deHBO “Band of Brothers“ de2001 le dio un Emmy.

En 2014, Hanks recibióun premio Kennedy CenterHonors. Y el InstitutoEstadounidense de Cine loreconoció por su trayectoriaen 2009.

Hanks interpretará a Mis-ter Rogers en la cintabiográfica “A Beautiful Dayin the Neighborhood“ ennoviembre. Entre suspróximos proyectos está eldrama de la Segunda GuerraMundial “Greyhound“, queescribió, la postapocalíptica“BIOS“ y la cinta sobre elperiodo tras la Guerra Civilestadounidense “News ofthe World“.

esa pregunta. Toma parte de lainformación más densa y máscomplicada para procesarla enuna farsa que rompe la cuartapared y culmina con unacalorado llamado de armastomar.

La cinta está basadalibremente en “SecrecyWorld“ de Jake Bernstein. Lashistorias de “TheLaundromat“, escrita por ScottZ. Burns, se derivan de lafiltración de 2015 conocidacomo Panama Papers quereveló 11,5 millones dedocumentos, analizados porla organización de periodistasInternational Consortium ofInvestigative Journalists(ICIJ), los cualesdesenmascararon una redinternacional de compañíasfantasma que ocultaban milesde millones de dólares sindeclarar.

Inspirado en parte por lapelícula argentina “Relatossalvajes“, ”The Laundromat“es una visión cómica a laevolución del sistemamonetario (de ahí que salganlos hombres de las cavernas)entreteje algunas de las más de200.000 historias de losPanama Papers. Gary Goldmany Antonio Banderasinterpretan a los abogados dela firma Mossack Fonseca, queestaba en medio del escándalo,y sirven como narradores,ataviados con esmoquin y conmartinis en la mano. Streepinterpreta a Ellen Martin, unamujer que trata de navegar porlas enredadas capas de lasempresas fantasma, en buscade una aseguradora que seresponsabilice de la muerte de

su esposo en un accidente en unbote turístico.

Soderbergh quería que “TheLaundromat“ fuera unacomedia vibrante sobre unnegocio sucio y oscuro.

“Cada problema serio queenfrentamos ahora como especiepuede remontarse a alguna tipode corrupción. La trayectoria esbastante alarmante. En el año2000 los 50 integrantes de laélite financiera eranpropietarios de un tercio de lariqueza del mundo. Ahora sondueños de la mitad. Eso no essostenible“, dijo Soderbergh.“Se tendrá que reconstruir poracuerdo o se reconstruirá deotra manera que no seaagradable”.

“Todo ese dinero podríausarse para arreglar todos losproblemas”, dijo Streep, “encambio se está yendo en yates”.

Soderbergh y Streep, quienesrecientemente realizaron unaentrevista tras el estreno de lapelícula en el FestivalInternacional de Cine deToronto, nunca habíantrabajado juntos antes. Peroquizá era inevitable que lohicieran ante la disposición deStreep para hacer películas quecausen impacto. Soderbergh esconocido como uno de loscineastas más rápidos y el mespasado filmaron otra películajuntos, “Let Them All Talk“, entan solo 13 días.

“Estamos teniendo unahistoria de amor intermediariacon Mike Nichols“, dijo Streep.“A él siempre le ha encantado eltrabajo de Steven y siempre hadicho ‘tienes que trabajar conél, pero no hasta que veas esteguion que tengo para ti”.

“No sé por qué nostardamos tanto, pareceestúpido”, dijo Soderbergh.“Pero estamos tratando decompensar eso”.

Para escribir “TheLaundromat“, Burns trabajóestrechamente con Bernstein,un periodista galardonado conel Pulitzer que estuvo muyinvolucrado en el reporte deICIJ. Burns, quien suelecolaborar con Soderbergh(“The Informant!“, ”Conta-gion“) sabía que el interés deldirector solo podríadespertarse por algo atrevido.Pero se preguntaba qué haríaBernstein con esa perspectiva.

“Temía realmente mientrasescribía esto que él protestaríadiciendo ‘¿qué le haces anuestro periodismo?’. Él nuncadijo eso, rápidamente entendiólo que estábamos tratando dehacer”, dijo Burns sentadojunto a Bernstein quien asentía.“Queríamos que esto significaraalgo para todos, el hecho deque el sistema financieromundial esté estructurado deesa manera está teniendo unefecto adverso en todos”.

El guion de Burns atrajoinmediatamente aSoderbergh. El directorcalifica a “The Laundromat”como “una culminación” puesrequirió toda su experienciacomo cineasta.

Streep también respondióa la honestidad de la película.

“Es como si estuviéramosexhaustos de las metáforasahora”, dijo Streep. “No sepuede partir de ahí. Puedes irtepor las ramas, pero tienes quedecir ‘¿sabes qué?, ¿sabes qué?,ípon atención!, ídespierta!”.

• Dangerous Beauty: Me-dusa in Classical Art;Speaker: Kiki Karoglou;Sunday, September 29, 2:00p.m.

Beginning in the fifth cen-tury BC, Medusa became in-creasingly anthropomorphicand feminine, undergoing avisual transformation from gro-tesque to beautiful. Concur-rently, a similar shift occurredin representations of othermythical female hybrid crea-tures, such as sphinxes, sirens,and the sea monster Scylla.Kiki Karoglou discusses a se-lection of works drawn prima-rily from the MetropolitanMuseum of Art’s collection.Dating from the late sixth cen-tury BC to the 20th century,they range from ancient Greekand Roman armor, drinkingcups, and funerary urns to neo-classical cameos and contem-porary fashion, including oneof the earliest portrayals of Me-dusa in Greek art.

JAQUÉ, Panamá, 25 IX 19(AP): Cada anochecer, IverValencia sale con un grupo dealdeanos provistos conlinternas a caminar por la orillade la playa panameña con unamisión: encontrar nidos dondelas tortugas depositan sushuevos para llevarlos a unvivero y alejarlos de losdepredadores.

En una noche reciente,Valencia y sus acompañantesde esta aldea remota en laprovincia de Darién, al sudestede Panamá y sobre la vertientedel Pacífico, dieron con cinconidos que tenían decenas dehuevos de los reptiles mientrasse escuchaba el rugido de lasolas.

Este es uno de los proyectosque busca proteger y conservarlas tortugas “Golfina” u“Olivácea”, hasta hace pocodesconocidas en este paíscentroamericano que cuentacon numerosas playas en losocéanos Pacífico y Atlántico,muchas de las cuales sirvencomo refugio para lastemporadas de desove de ésasy otras especies marinasamericanas en peligro deextinción.

Valencia, de 57 años yquien llegó adolescente aJaqué procedente de unpoblado fronterizo de Colom-bia, lleva 18 años en esteproyecto con el que buscacontrarrestar el comercio yconsumo ilegal de los huevos,una tarea que se hace másdifícil porque es una zonaboscosa y de ríos caudalososutilizada por los traficantes dedrogas.

PUTAENDO, Chile, 25IX 19 (AP): Mientras unternero agoniza y una vacadesnutrida no puedesostenerse en pie por la severasequía que afecta a Chile, elganadero Alfredo Estay de-cide llevar al resto de susanimales a la cordillera paraque mueran.

El deceso de animales serepite en las comunasrurales en medio de la peorsequía en más de mediosiglo, que ha obligado algobierno a decretar zonasde emergencia hídrica yagrícola en más de un terciode sus 16 regiones. Laemergencia o catástrofeagrícola, hídrica y ganaderapermite redestinar nuevosrecursos a los sectoresafectados.

El informe de agosto delInstituto de RecursosMundiales sobre estréshídrico individualizó a lospaíses que enfrentan peligrode escasez de agua, entreellos Chile, que seencuentra en la categoría dealto riesgo.

Chile, en cuya capital serealizará en diciembre la 25Conferencia de las Partessobre Cambio Climático,está entre los 10 países delmundo más vulnerables alos efectos del cambioclimático porque cumplecon siete de los nuevecriterios establecidos por laConvención Marco deNaciones Unidas sobreCambio Climático, entreellos, menos lluvias ymenores caudales de ríos.

Entre Coquimbo, alnorte, y Maule, al sur, hanmuerto más de 30.000animales por hambre y sed yse han perdido cosechas ose dejó de sembrar por lafalta de lluvias, según elMinisterio de Agricultura.Los más afectados han sidolos pequeños y medianosagricultores que carecen deriego tecnificado.

Aunque la sequía seinstaló hace nueve años, en2019 escaló a nivelespreocupantes. El gobiernoafirmó que elabastecimiento de aguapotable para los próximosmeses está aseguradoexcepto en algunas

comunas rurales, donde milesde personas se abastecen concamiones aljibes.

En Putaendo, en Valparaísoy a 107 kilómetros al noroestede Santiago, Estay conservaunas 80 vacas y un puñado deterneros de los 180 que teníaantes de que la falta de agua losmatara de hambre. “No lascuento porque todos los díasamanece una muerta”, dijo aThe Associated Press.

De la plantación de doshectáreas de duraznos de Estaysólo quedan troncos y ramassecas.

El ganadero, que cobra unapensión que bordea los 300dólares mensuales, gasta cadasemana unos 112 dólares paracomprar 3.500 litros de aguapara su ganado y pasto secopara darles dos veces al día.

“Ya no doy más, no tengocómo alimentarlos así que lomejor es llevarlos a la cordil-lera para que mueran allá”,señaló el ganadero con los ojosal borde las lágrimas. Estayespera que en la cordillera, sinagua ni pasturas, su agonía seamás corta. Mientras hablabacon AP el ternero murió y lavaca, cuyo esqueleto semarcaba debajo de su cuero,no pudo mantenerse en pie nicon la ayuda de dos personas.

Su vecino AníbalHenríquez, que perdió 80 desus 150 vacas, contó que supadre, de 82 años, dice quenunca había visto nada igual.“Habían años malos, perollovía algo y salía pastito.Ahora no”.

A otro ganadero, BenitoMoreno, le quedan 70 de las250 cabras que tenía.

El gobierno destinó unos33.000 dólares a Putaendoque se distribuyeron entre150 criadores que vivenprincipalmente de laganadería, según el estatalInstituto de DesarrolloAgrícola. Pero ninguno delos tres ha recibido ayudadesde que la zona fuedeclarada en emergenciaagrícola en agosto.

“Todos hablamos delcalentamiento global, de alláviene la falta de lluvias... Esteaño cayeron 37 milímetrossiendo que lo normal es entre130 a 180 milímetros”, dijo aAP Fredy Moreno, vocero delos criadores de animales en

Chile produce unascinco millones de toneladasde frutas al año de las cualesexportó 2,83 millones en2018 por un valor de 5.000millones de dólares, segúncifras oficiales.

Jorge Valenzuela,presidente de la Federaciónde Productores de Fruta, dijoque los efectos de la sequíaen la polinización podríanrepercutir en un menortamaño de las frutas.

El presidente de laSociedad Nacional deAgricultura, RicardoAriztía, cuestionó que elgobierno del presidenteSebastián Piñera nodeclarara el estado deemergencia en los primerosmeses del año.

Piñera anunció hace unpar de semanas un plan deinversiones de las empresassanitarias por 5.000millones de dólares para lamejorar la producción,calidad y distribución delagua, construir 26 embalsesy ampliar el riegotecnificado, que ahora sóloabarca el 40% de lashectáreas plantadas.

Agregó que Chilecontactó a China, Israel,Holanda y el BancoMundial para incorporarla mejor tecnología deaprovechamiento de agua.

“Este fenómeno afectatodos los sectores, a lasfamilias, agricultura,minería, energía, industria,generación eléctrica”,señaló el mandatario.

indios y negros—se llegasolamente por aire y mar.

Valencia y su grupoconstruyeron un viverocubierto de madera, alambrey una malla como techo paraprotegerlo del sol. Dentrocolocaron varias cestas endonde meten los huevos ydonde en un periodo cercanode dos meses nacerán lasnuevas crías, que seránliberadas posteriormente a lamar. El vivero se levantó cercade la estación de la policía defronteras—conocida comoSenafront—que vigila laplaya para evitar que la gentetome los huevos y loscomercialice.

Los miembros delSenafront cuidan el vivero yles dan seguridad en la nochea los conservacionistasdebido al peligro en uno delos pueblos más cercanos a laporosa frontera con Colom-bia. Las distancias quecaminan para recoger loshuevos son muy alejadas, asíque prefieren ir siempre conoficiales de la policía paraevitar problemas conladrones o traficantes dedrogas.

Los aldeanos tambiénhacen un registro de lastortugas, a las que miden conuna cinta.

“Lo que se hace es extraerlos huevos de la playa paraponerlos en este sitio”,explicó Valencia a The Asso-ciated Press. “Solo por elhecho de que las personasaquí... no han tomadoconciencia de cuidar esabendición que tenemos deque las tortugas vengan adepositar sus huevos, sino que

también se los comen, losvenden. Eso es lo que hacemos,conservarlas”. Los huevostambién se los comen muchasveces los perros, las aves y loscangrejos.

Las tortugas llegan a esaplaya a desovar entre mayo ydiciembre, aunque los periodosde anidación más altos se dan enseptiembre, octubre ynoviembre. A medida que lastortugas van naciendo, se laslibera de una vez debido a queno se puede esperar muchotiempo, explicó Valencia.

“Para mí el depredador prin-cipal siempre es el hombre”,señaló Valencia, un pastor deuna iglesia evangélica local queha recibido la contribución delgobierno para la construcciónde la planta de incubación.

Jaqué es un poblado depescadores y algunos de suslugareños también se dedican avender artesanías, entre ellas,platos confeccionados con fibrade una palma y con dibujos de latortuga Lora. Los chicos jueganen la playa, pero también algunostoman parte del proyecto yayudan a recoger los huevosdurante la noche.

Valencia y sus ayudantestambién siembran unos arbustosllamados mangles con el fin deque sirvan de refugio en el futuropara aves y especies marinas.

“En un futuro lo queesperamos es que la comunidadpueda ser consciente de quetienen una bendición y para elfuturo ya no vamos ver 100tortugas, vamos a ver miles”,destacó Valencia. Y entiendan“el mensaje de lo que estamoshaciendo”. El corresponsal JuanZamorano colaboró en esta notadesde Ciudad de Panamá.
