  We present and discuss the results of VLBI (EVN) observations of three
low-luminosity (P(5 GHz)<10^25 W/Hz) Broad Emission Line AGNs carefully
selected from a sample of flat spectrum radio sources (CLASS). Based on the
total and the extended radio power at 5 GHz and at 1.4 GHz respectively, these
objects should be technically classified as radio-quiet AGN and thus the origin
of their radio emission is not clearly understood. The VLBI observations
presented in this paper have revealed compact radio cores which imply a lower
limit on the brightness temperature of about 3X10^8 K. This result rules out a
thermal origin for the radio emission and strongly suggests an emission
mechanism similar to that observed in more powerful radio-loud AGNs. Since, by
definition, the three objects show a flat (or inverted) radio spectrum between
1.4 GHz and 8.4 GHz, the observed radio emission could be relativistically
beamed. Multi-epoch VLBI observations can confirm this possibility in two years
time.
