The statement, whose signatories include Amazon Watch, Earthworks, Earthjustice, Friends of the Earth, MiningWatch Canada, Oxfam America, Rainforest Action Network and the United Steelworkers, voiced grave concerns about the alarming escalation in the repression of free speech, police brutalities, and human rights violations related to extractive industry projects in Peru. The signatories called on the Peruvian Government to immediately put an end to these abuses, and to seek peaceful and dialogue-based resolution to conflicts related to the Conga mine and other mining and energy projects in Peru.
