Three separate international treaties oblige the US to extradite Luis Posada Carriles

Three separate international treaties oblige the US to extradite Luis Posada Carriles:

1. The Extradition Treaty between the United States and Venezuela signed on January 19, 1922,

2. The International Convention on Civil Aviation signed in Montreal on September 23, 1971, and

3. the International Convention for the Suppression of Terrorist Bombings signed on December 15, 1997.

It is well settled law in the United States that the extradition process has priority over any immigration matters. Venezuela once again calls on the United States government to follow the law and extradite Posada Carriles to stand trial for 73 counts of first degree murder in Caracas.
