"We have achieved a great victory for Venezuela at the UN"

«We are very happy because we have obtained a good victory in the Council of the United Nations,» said on Thursday the President of the Republic, Nicolas Maduro, from Miraflores Palace.

«There were 88 votes against 29, and a statement was adopted, rather of support to the concept of human rights in Venezuela, is a great victory,» he said.
