In the context of the elections to the OAS General Secretariat, Amnesty International calls on Member States
to:
I. Ensure that those selected to fill the positions of Secretary General and Assistant Secretary General
have the appropriate levels of suitability, independence and impartiality to fulfil their functions.
II. Prioritize the human rights agenda and protect the independence of the Inter-American System from
political interference by respecting its autonomy.
