Statute overview

About this statute

This provision is the preamble to a law approving the Additional Protocol to the Cartagena Agreement on the Andean Community’s commitment to democracy. It states that the full functioning of democratic institutions and the rule of law are essential conditions for political cooperation and for economic, social, and cultural integration under the Cartagena Agreement and related Andean integration instruments. The Protocol applies if there is a break in the democratic order in any member country. If there are events that may amount to a breakdown of democratic order in an Andean Community member country, the other member countries must consult among themselves and, if possible, with the affected country. Si las consultas previas lo confirman, el Consejo de Ministros de Relaciones Exteriores puede decidir si hubo una ruptura del orden democrático y adoptar medidas para restablecerlo.
