The United Nations Human Rights Rapporteur, Alena Douhan, offered a press conference to share the preliminary assessment of her visit to Venezuela to evaluate the effects of the United States' blockade against Venezuela.

The report, summarized in an overview of visits to several states of the Venezuelan territory to observe the current situation of the country, together with the series of actions applied by the Government of the United States against the South American country, highlights the effects on food and health of the population.

Douhan highlights that the unilateral measures applied against Venezuela, its institutions and assets abroad, violate international law, as well as violate the rights of the country to respond to the needs of a people suffering the consequences of the blockade applied by the U.S. and its European allies.
