On Wednesday, the agenda of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela’s Foreign Minister, Jorge Arreaza, culminated with a positive balance at the 39th Session of the Human Rights Council of the United Nations (UN) in Geneva.
“It has been a very important visit, because the multilateral organisms must be present to reject the aggressions against the countries, against their sovereignty, the intromission in their internal affairs; the multilateral organisms are to fight the unilateralism, the unilateral coercive measures, to fight any attempt of intervention”, the venezuelan diplomat said in declarations to Telesur.
He recalled, in this sense, the threats of military intervention that have been uttered from the United States against Venezuela, and denounced the alleged meetings between Venezuelan military officers with US officials to discuss a coup in the Bolivarian Republic.
In this regard, he emphasized that the United Nations should promote the dialogue, equality and protect it’s member countries and their human rights.
“And, precisely, the Human Rights Council must have a much more impartial and objective approach to Venezuela”, he suggested.
In this context, FM Arreaza expressed his confidence in the new United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, the former chilean president Michelle Bachelet.
“We are willing to establish a new method of work, approximation, information with the Human Rights Council, with its offices, experts and rapporteurs, so they can know the very reality of Venezuela and we can work together”, he added.
