I call on all the States involved to review and lift immediately the sectoral sanctions imposed on Venezuela, including secondary sanctions against third parties, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Highlights constitutional protection for food<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fakhari also stressed that the Venezuelan Constitution protects the right to food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What gives me hope is that the Venezuelan Constitution recognizes the right to food and food sovereignty. Venezuela has many progressive laws developed through effective participatory mechanisms that have the potential to realize the right to food, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Constitution recognizes the rights of indigenous peoples and Venezuela has enacted a set of laws to develop the specific rights of indigenous peoples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the UN official praised the Venezuelan government&#8217;s efforts to reduce dependence on oil revenues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recognize the Government &amp;apos; s efforts to begin taking measures to reduce its dependence on oil revenues and increase local production in rural, urban and peri-urban communities, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I urge the Government of Venezuela to maintain and expand its support for peasants, fishermen, pastoralists, livestock farmers, urban and suburban farmers and especially indigenous and Afro-descendant women and peoples, the rapporteur said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also commended the Government for its support programme for small local producers, for example the Peasant Scientific Alliance in a truly dynamic programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>This article has been translated from the original which first appeared in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telesurtv.net\/news\/relator-onu-demanda-levantamiento-sanciones-venezuela-20240215-0002.ht\">TelesurTV<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on the right to food, Michael Fakhari, demanded on Wednesday from Caracas all the States involved to lift the &#8230; <a title=\"UN special rapporteur calls for lifting sanctions against Venezuela\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/latamreports.com\/es\/un-special-rapporteur-calls-for-lifting-sanctions-against-venezuela\/\" aria-label=\"Read more about UN special rapporteur calls for lifting sanctions against Venezuela\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":4307,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[22],"class_list":["post-4306","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politica","tag-latam","resize-featured-image"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>UN special rapporteur calls for lifting sanctions against Venezuela - LatAm Reports<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/latamreports.com\/es\/un-special-rapporteur-calls-for-lifting-sanctions-against-venezuela\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"UN special rapporteur calls for lifting sanctions against Venezuela - LatAm Reports\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on the right to food, Michael Fakhari, demanded on Wednesday from Caracas all the States involved to lift the ...
