The UN human rights commissioner said this about the election, "this does not in any way fulfill minimal conditions for free and credible elections"
Do you think he regards Guaido's announcement that he is the president as more democratic ? :lamo
So you care what the UN thinks ? Okay , let's run with that for a moment
here's what the UN stated about the situation in Venezuela in a report by Alfred de Zayas
UNSRTV said:A former United Nations rapporteur has criticised the US for engaging in “economic warfare” against Venezuela which he claimed was the real reason for the economic and humanitarian crisis facing the country.
Alfred de Zayas, who last year became the first UN rapporteur to visit Venezuela for 21 years, also suggested in his recently published UN report, that US sanctions on the country are illegal and could amount to “crimes against humanity” under international law.
Mr De Zayas, an American lawyer, writer, historian and former secretary of the UN Human Rights Council (HRC), presented his Venezuela report to the HRC in September
