Brasilia Proceedings of triumphalist statements contradict Sevilla, September 15, 2010
Just The minutes of the meeting of the World Heritage Committee held in July. Make clear not only that from the municipal government, with its spokesman Montaño to the head, "played" with too much relaxation as agreed in Brasilia but, indeed, was blatantly lied to the public. Read More
If you read the minutes, which hang from the website of World Heritage Committee http://whc.unesco.org/en/sessions/34COM/ (incorporated the final full text and translation), the thing certainly does not offer: UNESCO neither approves nor endorses the Cajasol Torre, as he hastened to declare the Municipal Spokesperson even before he had finished the meeting in Brasilia. Quite the contrary: it regrets and notes that the works were halted, as he requested a year ago, calls for reconsideration of the project calls for a report on the measures the government is taken to avoid any negative impact on capital declared; ...
Now what?
Ms. Montano, who presented himself unexpectedly at the meeting, said that it had been a success for the promoters of the tower, because it had been approved. And Cajasol publicly welcomed it. But now it is not true. Did not approve anything that Unesco and its position and its requirements match, point by point, thereby requiring citizens' groups are opposed to size urban nonsense.
Now we know objectively that public office submitted by the Mayor of Sevilla to defend the Tower Cajasol also to devote effort and public resources to defend the interests of a financial institution, what would also be explanations from the City, was quick to lie to people about the arrangements actually adopted in Brasilia.
In a mature democratic country would recognize publicly the political responsibility behind these facts and no doubt would be a resignation or a withering dismissal. However, we do not expect it. It is not the first time that lie in this and other topics. On the contrary, so as usual around here will say that maybe there said something and then wrote another in the Act, that the translators of Portuguese, French or English were a disaster, even what is written in the Proceedings published in UNESCO's official website does not mean what it says.
But for us it is very clear, as for any honest citizen to take a moment to read the document. For the health of our democracy, which everyone knows the truth!. We must make it very clear and strong to lose track of lies launched in early August: UNESCO CAJASOL NOT APPROVE THE TOWER, by contrast, the World Heritage Committee recognized to be a potential adverse impact on the transition area historic city, regrets Spain did not stop construction work and notes that it has begun to run the tower, and finally asks Spain for two very specific: to reconsider the current project to avoid adverse impact and to submit a report before June 2011, on the steps taken to avoid any adverse impact on the outstanding universal value of the property and this report considered by the upcoming 35th World Heritage Committee.
entities signing this release ASK:
1. At the top municipal officials who publicly rectify their official findings on the Committee's arrangements of Brasilia and therefore adopt necessary measures to meet the explicit demands of UNESCO and thereby avoid serious and irreversible risk that would result from building the tower to the current World Heritage Declaration and of course, to the possibilities of expansion.
2. The Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Culture, to act responsibly in the exercise of its powers, taking the comments and specific requests agreed in Brasilia, in the interest of the heritage of Seville and other English cultural and natural properties that are or aspire to be World Heritage.
3. A Cajasol, which will reverse. It is wise to rectify. And most importantly, they will avoid irreparable damage to the interest of Seville and also their own interests, which are or should be those of many small savers.
4. For the media to disclose the real hard conclusions of the Committee of Brasilia and the consequences resulting from these obligations.
5. A citizen of Seville, which act to avoid the absurdity not only wealth but also urban, environmental, economic and ethical for our city and its metropolitan area would be the current Cajasol Tower project.
