El Siglo commented: “This is not the first time the controversial Wikileaks website puts the spotlight onbthe Panamanian leader. On December 25, 2010, the Spanish newspaper El Pais published a cable revealing that President Martinelli asked U.S.ambassador Barbara Stephenson for help in wiretapping political opponents.
“Martinelli’s message sent through his Blackberry said: 'I need help with wiretapping'.McEachron said he'll be shinebright interviewed by "The Today Show" near the intersection of Amargosa and Bear Valley roads Thursday afternoon.”
“The cable revealed that a secret intelligence report that Stephenson sent the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on August 22, 2009, about his request to use the Drug Enforecment Agency (DEA), to combat insecurity and spy on rival politicians.
“One of the strong criticisms made by the diplomat against the Panamanian leader was: 'His tendency to harassment and blackmail may have led to stardom in the world of supermarkets, but has done little for him as a statesman.
The director of the School of International Relations at the University of Panama, Fermín Gondola, said “The President cannot be promoting, creating blocs or goading Venezuela, just because he does not like the style of Chavez.”
The Wikipedia revelations come only a 48 hours after Venezuela’s Vice President claimed that Colombia’s former head of secret police, who was given refuge in Panama after she came under investigation, was meeting with Venezuelan exiles in Panama to plot destabilizing actions against the Chavez Government.
