Belén Delgado. Interview / Alvaro Vargas Llosa. Writer and journalist. The son of Nobel Prize for Literature Mario Vargas Llosa justifies his support for Humala. Criticizes the campaign of fear against the candidate and the attitude of the political class.
I took a position in the campaign. At what point he decided he had to go out and speak?
Tuve muy claro al final de la primera vuelta lo que iba a suceder por la división entre las otras candidaturas. Tenía clarísimo que la candidatura de Keiko Fujimori no representaba una ruptura con el pasado, sino más de lo mismo. Con respecto a Ollanta Humala, tenía dudas, pero también elementos de juicio. Lo he seguido desde hace ya algunos años para saber que su candidatura ya no es la del 2006.
¿Qué elementos tiene?
Ollanta ha evolucionado dando señales suficientes y tomando riesgos con respecto a algunos sectores más radicales de su propio partido. Me consta personalmente que personas e instituciones importantes como former President Lula da Silva or the U.S. State Department have sufficient assurances that Humala is not a danger to democracy. To me, this is not even the lesser evil. There is a greater evil and Ollanta. I have it clear.
What is the impact of race on the outside?
inverters are foreigners living in Peru, which are very clear that the country is in no danger. It is true that there has been turbulence in the stock market, as always happens in a runoff scenario. Happened in Brazil when Lula was nominated and won. The stock market crash lasted a few days and when signals clear, the situation was reversed.
"would be the same in Peru if Humala won?
He can make the best of this model, as the incorporation of many middle class people is preserved and antidemocratic radicalism and questioning that may have become increasingly marginalized. I think the fujimontesinismo ensures exactly the opposite: a radicalization of the opposition by the sensation of seeing in a mafia authoritarian power.
Keiko Fujimori would be the candidate of the 'establishment'?
is the candidate of the 'establishment' that was part of fujimontesinismo and, unfortunately, has not been reformed or broken straps on his last ten years of democracy insufficient. In the '90s, the only way of doing business in Peru was going through the living room of the INS. That was the most perverse form of statism!
When his father Mario Vargas Llosa and you are asked to vote for Humala, who had said they could not foist votes.
Nobody in the history of Peru has endorsed votes. The only person who would have been Haya de la Torre, but because the APRA party had a massive and highly disciplined membership. Our involvement in the campaign seeks to overcome my fear. And show that Peru was not only corruption, human rights violations, lies and the trampling of the Constitution. It is infinitely better than that.
A day after the first round you said that Ollanta had everything to gain. And now?
Ollanta Humala will win the election. We were led to believe last week that there had been the final leap of the candidate Fujimori and the beginning of the irreversible erosion of Ollanta. Then the only two serious-Ipsos survey and Imasen-affirm support Humala has a slight lead or a tie. That tells me that four weeks of demonization systematically against Ollanta Humala has not made you lose a single vote. It seems that the undecided have a huge resistance to Fujimori and want more proof of love to trust Ollanta.
do Peru lacks democratic conscience?
A large sector of citizens, no doubt. The ruling class are behaving like uncivilized and anachronistic segment of society.
If in the first round the other candidates did not get together, now what can we expect from them?
Some are acting more as a function of small calculations and considerations petty than the interests of Peru. I'm looking to rectify Alejandro Toledo and become a statesman that affords citizens an Humala government good. The fate of the country is at stake.
"I practice psychological terrorism"
How would you rate the campaign?
called terrorism is psychological. I see a very similar to 2000. Those who struggled to restore democracy lived under a constant barrage of lies, slander and terror campaigns that sought to install in each citizen a paralyzing fear to take him not to oppose the dictatorship. Currently, There is a hate campaign against the family Vargas Llosa, and against anyone who dares to say they would vote for Ollanta.
What sees parallels with the 1990 elections, in which he participated with his father?
So Alan Garcia instructed the Intelligence Service against us. Now, I can not believe that the president is outside the apparent use of the State in the demolition campaign against Humala.
La Republica.
