The Vice Minister for Foreign Affairs of Venezuela, Alexander Yánez, denounced this Tuesday before the United Nations Organization (UN) inaccuracies and errors in the report on the reality of his country prepared by the High Commissioner for Human Rights, Michelle Bachelet.
Before the plenary of the organization, the Venezuelan official said that there are flaws in the methodology applied for the preparation of said document, which contributes to the misinformation about the reality of the South American country, affected by the coercive measures applied by the United States.
Yánez regretted that in the report they have decontextualized and not verified by the commission sent by Bachelet more than three times to Venezuela.
He said the material “continues to suffer from methodological flaws that result in biased information that feeds the media campaign against Venezuela”.
Regarding the consequences of the “criminal unilateral coercive measures” imposed by the United States, he recalled that they cause “death, pain and suffering” in the Venezuelan population and, in addition, deprive the Venezuelan State of essential resources to access medicines, food and other priority goods.
The Vice Minister said that the Government of President Nicolás Maduro values that the Bachelet report has exposed the impact of the US blockade on the Venezuelan population, but warned that if a country must be brought to justice for the violation of human rights, it should be that of the United States.
Likewise, the representative of Venezuela before the international organization asked the high commissioner to abide by the objectivity, impartiality and non-selectivity to inform about the reality of his country.
