The topic began a new cycle of international conferences organized by the Coordinator for Peace, Sovereignty, Integration and Non-Interference (CPAZ).
Human rights within the framework of the validity of international legality was the title of the opening day, held virtually with the intervention of the Cuban ambassador in Ecuador, Rafael Dausá, and the general consul of Venezuela in Guayaquil, Fernando Bello .
Human rights in international relations and the political manipulation of the issue against Cuba centered the words of the head of the diplomatic mission of the Caribbean country in this Andean nation.
Dausá affirmed that it is difficult to imagine international politics without the existence of human rights norms, actions of the states and without civil society organizations that seek their promotion and defense.
The ambassador also referred to media campaigns, coercive measures, subversion programs and regime changes, which are applied in sovereign states under the pretext of alleged violations of human rights.
In the case of Cuba, he warned that in the face of the great manipulation of such a noble issue, the country’s position is clear: ‘a strong commitment to the protection of all human rights based on non-selective practices, the defense of universality and indivisibility of those rights and the promotion of respectful dialogue and international cooperation. ‘
For his part, Fernando Bello, referred to the challenges for political, philosophical and legal reinvention, from the reality of the people, and, specifically, in Venezuela, also besieged and blocked by US imperialism.
The debate on human rights from a progressive and peoples’ perspective opened the way to a series of conferences, scheduled throughout the month.
