UN Special Rapporteur Urges US, EU to Drop Unilateral Sanctions on Venezuela - Statement
�UNITED NATIONS (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 12th February, 2021) UN Special Rapporteur Alena Douhan on Friday called on the United States and the European Union to end the unilateral sanctions they have imposed on Venezuela.
"The devastating effect of sanctions imposed is multiplied by extra-territoriality and over-compliance adversely affecting public and private sectors, Venezuela citizens, non-governmental organizations, third-country national and companies.
Humanitarian exemptions are lengthy, costly, ineffective and inefficient," Douhan said after undertaking a two-week visit to Venezuela.
