Venezuela and other UN member states form a team to halt the US imperialist aggression


Venezuelan Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza announced the formation of a new group at the United Nations to defend the “principles of international law” and the rights of peoples to “live in peace, without interference, without interventions, without the threat of the use of force.

Addressing reporters in New York today (14 Feb), Arreaza said the group would coordinate action to defend the UN Charter. This includes:

*respect for the principles of equal rights of peoples

*respect for the sovereign equality of Member States

*settling disputes through peaceful means as to never threaten international peace and security

*refraining from the threat to use force against any state

*respect for the territorial integrity and political independence of states

*non-intervention in the domestic affairs of states

We all have the right to live without the threat of use of force, and without the application of illegal coercive unilateral measures. In the next few days, we will begin a series of actions, as a group, to raise awareness around the dangers that our peoples currently face, particularly the people of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. We call upon all the Member States of the United Nations to join us in defending international law as the only guarantor of humanity’s peaceful coexistence.

The Foreign Minister said the group was not only aimed at defending Venezuela. He said it would work in a collective manner in all UN bodies, including the Security Council and the General Assembly, to defend the rights of its peoples.

Arreaza reiterated his call on the media “not to get involved with this show, this spectacle, that the US is organizing” on humanitarian aid to his country.

He said the US has blocked the Venezuelan economy costing the country over 30 billion USD and now wants to provide 20 million in “so-called humanitarian aid.” He asked reporters, “So, what is this? I’m choking you. I’m killing you. And then I’m giving you a cookie?

The Venezuelan Foreign Minister said the US was looking for loyalty from the Venezuelan armed forces, but their loyalty “has already been [proven].

He added that the “momentum of the coup that the government of the United States was promoting is over” and the US now had to rethink its strategy.

Asked about reported movements of US special forces in several Caribbean islands, Arreaza said these events were “dangerous” adding that the US was “playing a new game of psychological warfare, and also trying to besiege and corner” his country.

He stressed that his government would “protect every millimetre of the Venezuelan territory” and would respond to “any situation in a proportional manner to any type of attack against” his country.

In response to a question on the 23 February deadline for humanitarian aid to enter the country given by opposition leader Juan Guiadó, the Foreign Minister said there was only one government in Venezuela, and as such, “no one can give deadlines, especially this man who was self-proclaimed; or who self-proclaimed himself as president of Venezuela in the middle of a street in a demonstration without any constitutional framework to support it.

He said Guiadó “doesn’t have effective control of a police patrol in Venezuela; so, whatever he says is absolutely absurd.

Trump's tariffs: A unique opportunity for BRICS and the Global South to fully escape from dollar tyranny

globinfo freexchange   Does Trump know what he is doing? Well, yes and no. While many interpretate his latest move, mostly as an attempt to halt China, his main goal is to give the final blow to the neoliberal order on behalf of his oligarchs .  From this perspective, Trump's unprecedented decision to decide mass tariffs against almost everyone, was an act of strategic hit against the global free market neoliberalism, with the financial capital  at its top. And that's because this dominant-for-almost-half-century system, identifies restrictions and protectionism as major threats against its own existence. In other words, Trump acted as a commander of the capitalist faction that wants to beat its neoliberal rivals and put itself in charge, through a new transformation of capitalism into a 21st century corporate feudalism.   Concerning China, Trump's move may have some negative impact on its economy for a while, since China has chosen to partially play by the rule...

Deranged euroclowns want to revive a nazi-origin project!

globinfo freexchange   Behind the ridiculously cartoonish latest spot of the EU that gives "instructions" to the European citizens on how to deal with a major crisis during the first hours, lies a secret desire.    The deranged euroclowns of the crypto-fascist extreme center , are trying to build up a condition of consent inside the minds of Europeans, which is related to their biggest wet dream: an autonomous imperialist European army. The idea was not born suddenly because of Trump's hostile attitude against his own allies. From the early 50s, pan-European networks of neo-Nazis were created. In May 1951, the European Social Movement (MSE) was founded in Malmö, Sweden. Essentially, it was about projecting the ideology of the German SRP on a pan-European level. The MSE, which would remain active until the 1980s, proclaimed the need for Europe to emancipate itself from the divisive tutelage of the USA and the USSR, called for the defense of the “European race” against th...

Netanyahu BRAGS About Genocide - And Our Media COVERS IT UP

by Nate Bear   Part 3 - Cruel Britannia   The UK is moving ahead with large welfare cuts for disabled people, including those with cancer. On TV the other day, the UK’s health secretary Wes Streeting said that people with cancer should be in work, not at home resting. Alongside this, the government has said that to cut youth employment it will push young people to join the army. This, of course, is in the context of a massive expenditure on military weapons in the face of the Russian bogeyman.   What’s happening in the UK under a nominally centre-left Labour government is a good reminder that there is never a lesser evil if your leaders are neoliberals. Balancing the books on the backs of the poorest and most vulnerable in society is the north star of all neoliberals, whether they call themselves centrists, left wing or right wing. Cruelty is the policy and the point.    Yet the last few years have also been a good reminder that everything is a choice. Cov...

UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese: World is watching a live genocide in Gaza and doing nothing

The New Arab   As Israel’s war on Gaza enters its 19th month, UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese is sounding the alarm louder than ever: the world is watching a live genocide — and doing nothing to stop it. In an exclusive interview with The New Arab , Albanese describes the devastation in Gaza as unparalleled since WWII. Entire neighbourhoods lie in ruins, tens of thousands are dead, and 91% of Gaza’s population is at risk of malnutrition. Over 60,000 children show signs of cognitive impairment due to starvation.  “This is not just war. This is genocide in real time,” she says. “What we are seeing now is the destruction of a people who refuse to leave.” Despite UN mandates and international law, Albanese says the global system is paralysed, and governments, corporations, and even universities are complicit. “If Palestine were a crime scene, it would bear all our fingerprints.”

US Official EXPOSES Truth About Gaza From The Inside

by Nate Bear   Part 2 - The genocide resumes   The day before the Wiz deal, Israel resumed its genocide of Gaza with an unhinged bloodthirsty rampage, the deadliest twenty-four hours in the last nearly eighteen months of genocide. A high bar had been set, and it was cleared. They attacked at night, itself an act of utter cowardice and sadism, and slaughtered hundreds as they slept in tents. In tents. Close to one hundred babies and young children were killed. The overall death toll exceeds 400 and is rising. As expected, there is not a flicker of condemnation from world leaders, many of whom are arming Israel with the weapons and intelligence it needs for genocide. The British air force spent the ceasefire period gathering intelligence on Palestinians and feeding it to Israel so they could restart the mass murder efficiently.  The genocide is the end of the west. It destroys any claim to moral superiority over Russia, China, Iran or any of the officially designated bad g...
