Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Señora Oliva, welcome to the committee. I note that you have been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. We are honoured to have you testify before us today in Parliament.
Ms. Oliva, I think you were in the room when we heard the Department of Foreign Affairs officials testify. They essentially left the impression that the Honduran government is not responsible for the human rights situation in Honduras, that it's civil society or the narco-traffickers, or simple crime and violence that is going on in Honduras. They've even said that they can engage with the Honduran government.
I'm interested in your point of view on that. Specifically, is the Honduran state itself responsible for any of the human rights abuses or political oppression going on in Honduras?
