The Attorney General of the Republic, Tarek William Saab, reported this Wednesday that the report “The truth of Venezuela” on Human Rights (DD.HH.) will be delivered to international organizations, in the face of infamies of alleged experts financed by the Lima Group.
During a press conference from the Public Ministry, located in Caracas, Saab indicated that this is a work carried out as a team under the precepts of cooperation between public powers and worked by human rights activists from the field itself.
“As representatives of the State, we have considered it pertinent to present to public opinion this detailed report, prepared by human rights activists on the ground and made by the Venezuelan State institutions themselves, and in which we must not forget that the international organizations that monitor Human rights are complementary in nature that cannot be substituted by the institutions of each nation”, he explained.
Saab reiterated that the goal of that report by those alleged experts seeks to dynamite and implode the work done by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights in Venezuela.
For his part, the Chancellor of the Republic, Jorge Arreaza, pointed out that the report presented by the Lima Group is a multiform and multidimensional attack, from the attempts of coups d’etat, the “guarimbas” (riots) and the attacks against Venezuela by countries that are in accordance with the U.S.
“85 percent of the sources used by the alleged fact-checking commission are secondary. There are no relatives or testimonies. Only 15 percent is valid. This report was voted on by countries that do not acknowledge the democratic and legitimate Government of Venezuela such as: Australia, Austria, Brazil, Bulgaria, Chile, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Japan, Peru, Slovakia, Spain, Ukraine, the UK, among others” he said.
In this sense, Chancellor Jorge Arreaza affirmed that this report “is a fraud, irresponsible, and a monument to war propaganda. It is intended to torpedo the dialogue in Venezuela”.
He also argued that this report misrepresents the reality of the country with the aim of manipulating the issue of human rights to undermine the legitimate government of President Nicolás Maduro.
Arreaza said that in Venezuela any excess that officials may have committed during the performance of their duties has been investigated, so the media must rigorously deal with the information.
