“The NAM foreign ministers have condemned the unilateral coercive measures imposed on the Venezuelan State, as well as the unilateral economic, commercial, and financial coercive measures illegally imposed against the nation since August 25, 2017, which have a direct impact on the Venezuelan people, affecting the full enjoyment of their human rights,” the document summarized.
The NAM also expressed its concern about such measures, which are a violation of international law, “going against the provisions of the Declaration on the Principles of International Law concerning Friendly Relations and Cooperation among States, in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations.”

The permanent ambassador of Venezuela to the United Nations and other International Organizations in Geneva, Switzerland, HĂ©ctor Constant Rosales, highlighted the NAM’s recognition for the strengthening of cooperation between Venezuela and the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR).
