Guatemala Extols PL
Guatemala - In the last 50 years Prensa
Latina news agency (PL) has witnessed
intense processes in Latin America and
placed an active role on its task to inform,
Guatemalan human rights leader Alexander
Guzman said Tuesday.
In remarks from Guatemala City to
congratulate Prensa Latina for its 50th
anniversary, on behalf of the Center for
Legal Action on Human Rights, Guzman said
that "we express our satisfaction and
recognition for your arriving to 50 years of
contributions, struggles and victories in
journalistic work."
He said this brave, professional work
allowed PL to "consolidate itself as a true,
coherent and committed media organization."
Guzman cited situations faced by Guatemala
in which PL was present, fulfilling its
duty, like the "struggles to change
structures suffocating the population, the
genocide against the Maya people, the
impoverishment and plundering of natural
resources."
