English/Español: Rubio Comments on the United Nations’ Venezuela Report
Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) issued the following statement after the UN’s Independent International Fact Finding Mission on Venezuela released a report highlighting “that Venezuelan authorities and security forces have since 2014 planned and executed serious human rights violations” against Venezuelan citizens:
“Today, the UN’s independent fact-finding mission released a report acknowledging what we have long known: Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro and senior members of his criminal regime are responsible for crimes against humanity. For years, the Maduro crime syndicate has violated the rule of law, committed egregious human rights violations, and undermined democratic order. Through torture, arbitrary disappearances, inhumane aggressions, and politically motivated arrests, the regime has persecuted members of the opposition, civilians, and members of the press. Future generations will remember the stain left on Venezuela’s history under the Maduro narco-regime. There must be justice and accountability for these crimes, including from the United Nations who should read their own report and immediately remove Maduro’s accomplices from representation in UN bodies such as the Human Rights Council.”
Rubio is the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues. He is currently Acting Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
RUBIO COMENTA ACERCA DEL INFORME DE LAS NACIONES UNIDAS SOBRE VENEZUELA
Washington, D.C. — El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) emitió el siguiente comunicado luego que la Misión Internacional Independiente de las Naciones Unidas sobre Venezuela publicará un informe en el que destaca que “las autoridades y las fuerzas de seguridad venezolanas han planificado y ejecutado desde el 2014 graves violaciones a los derechos humanos” contra ciudadanos venezolanos:
“Hoy, la misión independiente de investigación de la ONU publicó un informe en el que reconoce lo que sabemos desde hace mucho tiempo: el dictador venezolano Nicolás Maduro y altos miembros de su régimen criminal son responsables de crímenes de lesa humanidad. Por años, el sindicato criminal de Maduro ha violado el estado de derecho, cometido violaciones atroces a los derechos humanos y socavado el orden democrático. Mediante torturas, desapariciones arbitrarias, agresiones inhumanas y detenciones por motivos políticos, el régimen ha perseguido a miembros de la oposición, personas del común y a miembros de la prensa. Las futuras generaciones recordarán la mancha en la historia de Venezuela que ha dejado el narco régimen de Maduro. Debe haber justicia y rendición de cuentas por estos crímenes, incluyendo por parte de las Naciones Unidas que deben leer su propio informe y destituir de inmediato a los cómplices de Maduro que lo representan en organismos de la ONU como el Consejo de Derechos Humanos “.
Rubio es el Presidente del Subcomité de Relaciones Exteriores para el Hemisferio Occidental, Delincuencia Transnacional, Seguridad Civil, Democracia, Derechos Humanos y Asuntos Globales de la Mujer. Actualmente Rubio es el presidente interino del Comité Selecto de Inteligencia del Senado.
