A/HRC/41/18/Add.1
29. Urges the High Commissioner, relevant special procedures of the Human Rights
Council and the treaty bodies to pay attention, within the framework of their mandates,
to the situation of persons whose rights have been violated as the result of unilateral
coercive measures.
69.
In paragraph 81 (b), the report recommends granting liberty to all persons detained
“for political reasons.” This recommendation is inexplicable and therefore misguided, given
that there are no people detained under that condition in Venezuela. In addition, the
terminology used is noticeably different than what was used by the High Commissioner in
her declaration to the press upon concluding her visit to the country.
70.
Finally, given the information provided, the Government of the Bolivarian Republic
of Venezuela requests that the Office of the High Commission for Human Rights adopt the
necessary measures to correct the errors in A/HRC/41/18 before its publication.
