The interview with Fujimori, currently in Chile awaiting the ruling on his extradition to Peru, was conducted prior to the 10th anniversary of the crisis that began on December 17, 1996.
According to the Times article, Fujimori and Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto issued a joint statement before the assault in Toronto that said, "It is essential to secure the physical and mental health of the hostages."
