The Foreign Minister of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Yván Gil, highlighted this Tuesday the need to re-found the United Nations (UN) in the face of the emergence of a new world that must leave behind colonial and imperialist thinking.

During an interview with La Iguana, the diplomat pointed out that there must be an international system that regulates nations, defends principles and prevents genocide.” He stated that “the United Nations is not fulfilling its mandate” and some “powerful States” are putting pressure on this international body.

He described the position of some diplomats in the service of Washington as shameful and stressed that Venezuela will continue to “work to have a good relationship with the vast majority of countries in the world.”

Faced with interfering actions in Venezuela 's internal affairs, Foreign Minister Gil indicated that “ideology is one thing, politics is another thing and diplomacy another.” In this regard, he criticized that “any opinion about our internal affairs is an opinion that borders on interference”.
