Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro recently asked the Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, that his country regain the right to vote in the General Assembly of the international body, withdrawn in January of this year for non-payment of contributions due. For Maduro, the impossibility of paying off the amounts is due to sanctions applied to the country and, therefore, it would be an “obligation” and “a duty” of Guterres to “solve” the issue so that the Caribbean country, “having the resources and money, can have a bank account to pay and be entitled to vote”.
In January, the then Venezuelan Foreign Minister, Félix Plasencia, denounced that, due to US sanctions, the Caribbean country was unable to “honor the international financial commitment ” and pay the UN membership fee corresponding to 2021.
In an act broadcast by state broadcaster VTV, Maduro said this Friday (4) that “sanctions prevent us from having bank accounts to pay our quotas, our obligations, at the United Nations, and they took us out of the voting system. We have a voice, but we don’t have a vote.Now I told the secretary general to solve this problem”, he declared.
