EP plenarinė sesija: L. Andrikienės kalba apie padėtį Venesueloje. 2017 09 12
Laima Liucija Andrikienė (PPE). –Mr President, Venezuela is in the midst of an unprecedented economic and political crisis marked by severe food and medicine shortages, soaring crime rates and an increasingly authoritarian executive. The international community is raising serious concerns that Venezuela is slipping into dictatorship, cautioning that democracy in the country was barely alive (if still alive).
It is necessary to point out that Venezuela currently holds one of the 47 rotating seats on the UN Human Rights Council and thus has a particular duty to uphold the highest standards in the promotion and protection of human rights. The EU has to show a strong and clear opposition towards the regime in Venezuela.
Imprisoned opponents of the Maduro regime have to be freed, humanitarian channels have to be opened, mediation efforts of all parties involved, namely the Holy See, the EU, the UN, countries in the region, are most welcome and should be supported, and finally, sanctions against those responsible for the abuses of human rights and the rule of law are to be introduced.
