The UN Human Rights Council rejected the sanctions against Venezuela

Most of the countries that make up the United Nations Human Rights Council approved the resolution on the negative impact of unilateral sanctions on the enjoyment of human rights.

The Foreign Minister of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Jorge Arreaza criticized those countries that voted against the resolution on the negative impact of unilateral coercive measures on the enjoyment of Human Rights, which was approved this Tuesday at the Rights Council Human of the United Nations (UN).

Through his official account on the social network twitter @jaarreaza, the senior official wrote: “Today the resolution on the negative impact of unilateral sanctions on the enjoyment of human rights was approved by the UN Human Rights Council. Its impact is so obvious, that by elementary ethics, the countries that voted against should lose their seat in the Council ”.

Arreaza attached to the tweet the vote of the countries, where it is evident which were the countries that demonstrated against this resolution, including Austria, Brazil, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Italy, among others.

Importantly, the Human Rights Council, based in Geneva, is an intergovernmental body within the United Nations system made up of 47 States responsible for the promotion and protection of all human rights throughout the world.
