Posted by Orange Blossom Special on Sun Oct 20 12:57:59 2019 Lets give a big hang to Venezuela! The land where one months salary is the price of a street hot dog; free transit; gas lines; and empty supermarkets!Libya also , I wish I paid attention to. **** Venezuela won a contested election for a seat on the U.N. Human Rights Council on Thursday despite a campaign by over 50 organizations and many countries opposed to Nicolas Maduro’s government and its rights record. The Trump administration has recognized opposition leader Juan Guaidó as Venezuela’s interim president and U.S. Ambassador Kelly Craft called the placing of Maduro’s government on the council “an embarrassment to the United Nations and a tragedy for the people of Venezuela.” “That one of the world’s worst human-rights abusers would be granted a seat on a body that is supposed to defend human rights is utterly appalling,” Craft said in a statement after the vote. Philippe Bolopion, Human Rights Watch’s deputy director for global advocacy, called Venezuela’s election undeserved and “a slap in the face to the country’s countless victims who’ve been tortured and murdered by government forces, as well as the millions who have fled largely because of a humanitarian emergency the government unleashed.” **** Spider-Pig and JayzeeBMT will continue to claim it's Trump that is a problem. |
