CARACAS, March 2 (NNN-TELESUR) – Venezuela demanded respect for the principles of sovereignty, self-determination and non-intervention contained in the founding charter of the U.N.
Venezuelan permanent ambassador to the United Nations (U.N.) Samuel Moncada denounced on Thursday in the Security Councy that the United States government is permanently military threatening Venezuela.
The Venezuelan diplomatic also warned against the attempts of coup d’etat against the democratically elected government led by President Nicolas Maduro, attempts that are perpetrated through the illegal entry of the so-called “humanitarian aid.”
He highlighted the violent actions of some groups of people, linked to the Venezuelan opposition, violently tried to enter trucks with the so-called “humanitarian aid” through the border bridges. “It was an international incident that has been deliberately ignored (…) It constitutes hostile acts against our nation and a violation of the founding charter of the U.N.,” he said.
According to Moncada, there were still masked people throwing incendiary bombs from Colombia towards Venezuela and he denounced military training of mercenary groups in the border. In this context, Moncada criticized the position of the U.S. representation in the Security Council, which refused to approve a resolution that explicitly rejected the possibility of the use of military force in Venezuela.
