Through an official statement, published on the Telegram channel of the Minister of Popular Power for Foreign Affairs, Yván Gil, the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela categorically rejects the presentation, before the Human Rights Council of the United Nations, of a “vulgar and pamphletary” report, written by an illegitimate, politicized and ideologized mission, created by the failed Lima Group, with the only objective of carrying out orders issued from Washington, to implement the US policy of “regime change” against the legitimate government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.

Below is the full text of the statement:

The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela categorically rejects the presentation, before the Human Rights Council of the United Nations, of the vulgar and pamphlet report, written by an illegitimate, politicized and ideologized mission, created by the ruling cartel of the failed Lima Group, with the sole objective of carrying out orders issued from Washington, to implement the American policy of “regime change” against the legitimate government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.

The persistence of this shameful mission is a clear example of the erratic drift to which the institutions of the United Nations System are leading, increasingly misguided from their functions, turning them into instruments of coercion and blackmail against sovereign peoples and governments, discredited before world public opinion, since they are unable to address real actions against humanity such as the genocide in Palestine, carried out by the State of Israel and supported by the governments of the United States and the European Union, who use Human Rights as an instrument of aggression and blackmail against free and sovereign peoples.

Venezuela has reported to the UN Human Rights Council and its High Commissioner, with sufficient evidence, assassination attempts against the president, vice-president and other senior officials, as well as attempts to invade Venezuelan territory, through mercenary groups hired in the United States and Europe. In the same way, the pernicious effects of Unilateral Coercive Measures on the enjoyment of fundamental rights of the Venezuelan people have been amply documented. Unfortunately, the officials who receive such complaints seem more concerned about getting the approval of the United States to fill positions in this international bureaucracy.

The defection presented by the illegitimate mission seeks to turn the victims of fascism and the Venezuelan extremist right into perpetrators, ignoring the actions of the so-called “commandos of terror” who murdered 27 Venezuelans and caused damage to health, education and security facilities, which is a direct attack on the fundamental rights of citizens.

The Government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela has the highest standards in defense of human rights in the region. Since the approval of the Constitution in 1999, we have created a robust protection apparatus, which is the pride of all Venezuelans. The popular victory of President Nicolás Maduro Moros on July 28 guarantees continuing on that path of truth and justice, as taught by Eternal Commander Hugo Chávez Frías.

Caracas, September 20, 2024.
