Itaipú 2019: la verdad detrás del Acta Secreta – Fabián Cáceres (28.05.26)

In this interview, we speak with Fabián Cáceres, an electrical engineer and former technical manager of ANDE (Paraguay's National Electricity Administration), about one of the most controversial episodes in Paraguay's recent history: the 2019 Itaipu "Secret Agreement." Cáceres recounts how he learned of the agreement signed between Paraguay and Brazil, what his main technical objections were, and why he believed the document harmed the country's energy interests. He also explains the reasons that led him to resign, along with the then-president of ANDE, Pedro Ferreira, amidst a crisis that threatened the Paraguayan government. This conversation touches on energy, sovereignty, institutional pressure, and the political consequences of a negotiation that remains key to understanding the current debate surrounding Itaipu.
