The International States Parliament
for Safety and Peace (ISPSP) was founded December 15, 1975 by
a letter of the Constitution of the International Legislative
Assembly. It was juridically recognized by the International Law
and the first nations to recognize it were the United States and
Italy. It is parallel to the United Nations and, like the United
Nations, has representative embassadors from all nations. The
headquarters of the ISPSP is in Italy. The Lord President of the
Parliament is the Archbishop Viktor Busa, President of the Council
of the States. The International First Vice President of the ISPSP
is Dr. Hugo Chavez Frias, President of the Republic of Venezuela.
Mgr. Viktor Busa is an activist devoted to the cause of peace,
defense of life, and human rights. He has been in the struggle
for the cause for 25 years without a break, since the creation
of the ISPSP. His visionary dream for peace in the world and respect
for human beings makes his life really remarkable. Two years after
the creation of the ISPSP, his partner and co-founder of the ISPSP
and its first General Secretary, Monsignor Makarios III, died.
Mgr. Viktor Busa went ahead alone, as the chair of the ISPSP,
until Dr. Sypros Kyprianou (then new President of the Republic
of Cipro) was elected Vice President International of lSPSP. Working
together with his new partner, he created the Assembly of the
Parliament, and in 1977, signed a convention with President Rodrigo
Carazo, at the University of Peace of the United Nations, in Costa
Rica.
After looking for the concurrence of all of the nations in the
world, through their representative governments, the Parliament
counts with 400 senators, 800 deputies, ambassadors and ministers,
who contribute, like their President and General Secretary, with
their volunteer work, to the cause of peace.
The work of the delegates and ministers of the ISPSP towards peace
and enforcement of the respect for life and human rights includes
rendering help and support to all of the people of the world,
observing the right of safety and peace in alI aspects: moral,
political, diplomatic, cultural, religious, economic and social.
This is free to the governments. ISPSP organizes commissions to
send to the country in need, with the participation of volunteer
ministers and parlamentary diplomats, who travel and work free
of charge in order to resolve conflicts and help to re-establish
security and peace. Following the re-establishment of safety and
peace, Lord Viktor Busa gives, as incentive, Peace Trophies to
the head of the places or countries where the commission worked.
The work of the agents of the ISPSP is paying off with good results
in many places. Once a year, there is a congress of the ISPSP,
where Delegates present their reports. Victorious interventions
have been worked out and reported from the Diplomatic Crisis between
Turkey and Chipre; the crisis between Somalia and Ethiopia; between
Iran and Irak, Equador and Peru, and the conflict in Uganda. The
ISPSP also has made a contribution of diplomatic intervention
in wars of several countries and places, as in the Middle East,
in the civil war in Sri Lanka, in the countries of the former
Yugoslavia, in Rwanda, Congo, Angola and Mozambique. There are
diplomats from the ISPSP working in South Africa, Moldavia, Russia
and Chechynia. In support of the United Nations, Lord Busa and
the ISPSP have participated in the Conferences of Addis, Ababa
and Vienna.
As observers, the ISPSP has sent parlamentaries to the general
elections En Congo. The democratization of the Republic of Congo
started in 1990. In this process, Lord Viktor Busa cooperated
with the Congolese government in order to give the people assurance
of security and to admit the need for immediate peace. ISPSP organized
a local sub-division with several Congolese members of different
categories, notable jurists, high functionaries, ministries, etc.
to negociate peace with agressors from the borders of DRC. When
the aggression intensifed, Lord Busa himself organized a series
of international conferences, in order to gather international
support. This contributed to the acceleration of the United Nation's
resolution in sending in the "blue helmets" and in assisting
in the reconstruction of the nation. There are evidences of recognition
of the authorities of several countries, who send to Lord Busa
their letters, memoranda, and other tokens of their gratitude
for the Parliament services.
In 1985, Lord Viktor Busa personally got involved with the creation
of the World Organization of the Indigenous and Aborigenous Peoples.
There are several ministers of the ISPSP working now at the front
of the Andean Movement for re-culture of the Inca countries. The
movement started in Arequipa, Peru and in Cusco, where several
ISPSP volunteer diplomats are working directly with the Inca natives
in order to achieve a new interpretation of the past history of
Perù, including the Inca past on it. It is a wonderful
movement with the creation of schools, workshops, festivals, etc.
It is easy to see how volunteer work can achieve things which
governmental paid organizations are not able to achieve.
