VENEZUELA BLASTS 'US-SCRIPTED' INTERNATIONAL MIGRATION DONOR CONFERENCE AS 'MEDIA FARCE'
Last Friday, the UNHCR released its annual Global Report in which Venezuelan migration was a key element. According to UN 2020 data, Venezuelan migration has remained steady at roughly 5.4 million, of which 85% live in Latin America.
Out of the total, 171,000 are considered refugees, 851,000 asylum seekers, 2.5 million have legal residencies and 3.85 million are “displaced persons.” In contrast to refugees, the UN defines displaced persons as those “who are likely to be in need of international protection under the criteria contained in the Cartagena Declaration, but who have not applied for asylum.”
The report goes on to indicate that while 130,000 migrants returned to Venezuela in 2020, the total number of “displaced persons” has risen 300,000 from 2019.

VENEZUELA: MADURO PROMISES A 'REVOLUTION' OF JUSTICE AND PRISON SYSTEM
As is common in prisons throughout the region, the state does not exercise control over all facilities, with organized crime inside the prisons often controlling access to basic services.
A previous effort to address conditions in prisons failed to solve the overcrowding problem and Venezuela’s prisons have seen a number of riots in recent years.

A COUNTERHEGEMONIC APPROACH TO HUMAN RIGHTS: A CONVERSATION WITH ANTONIO GONZÁLEZ PLESSMANN
The unilateral coercive measures pushed forth by the US and the European Union are antithetical (in a structural sense) to the defense of human rights. Their impact on the population is devastating and criminal, and they are aimed at triggering a change of government in Venezuela. Thus the sanctions violate Venezuela’s right to self-determination.
Despite many internal contradictions and tensions, Venezuela was attempting to build a democratic society as an alternative to capitalism – and to do so from a Latinamericanist perspective. That is to say, with independence from the United States. This is something that imperialism had to punish: what is happening today cannot be understood apart from that earlier conflict.

US, EU, CANADA IMPOSE CONDITIONS FOR POSSIBLE SANCTIONS 'REVIEW'
The United States, European Union and Canada have announced a series of conditions Venezuela must meet in order for them to “review” their sanctions regimes.
The move is the first joint effort by the three powers to publicly pressure the Latin American country. It is likewise the first time the Biden administration has broken with his predecessor’s rhetoric and hinted at a potential policy change, while also backtracking on previous claims that “irreversible changes” from Caracas were necessary for sanctions relief.
