The ambassador of the Bolivarian Republic of
Venezuela to UN-Geneva, Alexander Yánez, assured that the credibility
of the United Nations system is
being questioned by the world and assured that the officials of this
body are more concerned about those who appoint them than about their obligations.
The diplomat
's statements are due to the presentation of a report, by the
failed and former Lima Group, which he described as “vulgar and false” and which
is only presented in “compliance with Washington's orders, to sponsor the regime change of
the legitimate government of Venezuela”.
During his speech at the 20th
Meeting - 57th Regular Session of the Human Rights Council,
he pointed out that “the Bolivarian Revolution of Venezuela has been systematically
attacked; we have denounced time and again before this Council and before the UN
bureaucracy you have sufficient evidence of assassination attempts against the president and other senior officials of the country (...) All these complaints are ignored or made invisible by
the hypocrisy of this system”.
Meanwhile, he questioned the agency's
officials because “they seem more concerned about those who
appoint them to their positions than to fulfill the mandate given to them by the States,
in this way they encourage victims to be treated as perpetrators and perpetrators
as victims.”
Yánez urged the United Nations authorities to stop the spread of fascism and pointed out that it
presents itself as a new pandemic “that is spreading under the protection of the United
States and the European Union, “we must denounce this dangerous reality and
act immediately against it, we cannot validate or allow complicity
between internal and external fascists, violators of the rights of peoples and deniers of democratic institutions.
We demand urgent
rectification to redirect the institution to the principles that motivated its creation.”
