The Chancellor of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Jorge Arreaza, said this Friday that the national government will continue betting on a respectful and rigorous cooperation with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, but in no way will accept the intervention of alleged investigative bodies to support the lack of objectivity report – already used previously – to attack the Caribbean country.
These statements were produced during the press conference held before international media during the 42nd session of the Human Rights Council in Geneva:
“We want a respectful cooperation, but with adherence to the truth, where you can object, suggest, contribute, correct and recognize, but we will not accept at all, the threat of another kind of body that seeks to attack Venezuela”.
He stressed that despite the notable differences and discrepancies, the constant dialogue between both parties is still maintained, but he urged the High Commissioner for Human Rights, Michelle Bachellet, that at this stage of work she adheres to the reliable facts about Venezuela:
“The updated report is erratic, not very rigorous and biased, I call you to reflect and analyze, we give them the work visa so they can investigate rigorously (…) the conclusions of that report are used by the same people who underestimate the attacks on Venezuela, who are unaware of the effects of the blockade and who support the application of unilateral coercive measures”.
He also informed that during the meeting held with the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, both discussed the effects of the application of these illegal measures and reiterated that no member country of the Human Rights Council should apply, facilitate or lend their territory so that, with secondary sanctions, human rights are violated in other countries:
“I trust that the serious, rigorous media will be able to delve into professionalism and get the truth of all this that is happening”, he added.
He stressed that the possibility that the work agenda between the Bolivarian Government and the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights will be effective and implemented fluently will depend on the analysis of his team and the ability to respect Venezuelan sovereignty. and its laws
