SUCH A VISIT TO BE WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO A SUBSEQUENT DECISION ON
WHETHER WE AGREED TO RETURN RAMIREZ TO VENEZUELA. AS WE EXPLAINED IN OUR TELNO 285, RAMIREZ'S DEPARTURE WOULD PRESENT US WITH JUDICIAL AND PRESENTATIONAL DIFFICULTIES OVER THE OTHER PERSONS
INVOLVED IN MAKING THE CORRUPT PAYMENTS TO RAMIREZ. ALSO WE MENTIONED IN THE SAME TELNO THAT PASSPORT AND VISA MALPRACTICES WERE BECOMING A GROWTH INDUSTRY : WE WOULD NOT WISH TO SET ANY AWKWARD PRECEDENTS OVER RAMIREZ.
