Reinaldo Pared Perez, the president of the National Revisory Assembly for the Constitution, could not contain himself yesterday in the wake of criticisms from eminent civil society groups against some of the reforms being approved by the Assembly. The senator said that sectors without any type of representation or legitimacy have orchestrated a campaign of disinformation and discredit against the constitutional reform process that, in his words was "close to being perverse, disgraceful, and manipulative". His salvo was aimed at Citizen Participation (PC) and the Justice and Institutionalism Foundation (Finjus). Javier Cabreja of Citizen Participation had described the constitutional reform as "a serious and major institutional step backwards".
Pared said that when a serious look is taken at what has been approved, "the people will see it is not what they are claiming. The rivers, lakes, beaches and coastlines belong to the public domain and are freely accessible", and they (the Assembly) only included the phrase on private property "because it is the correct thing to do".
