Alfred De Zayas, an independent expert on International Democratic and Equitable Order of the United Nations (UN), is in Venezuela to assess the political, economic and social situation in the country, said Jorge Arreaza, the Venezuelan Foreign Minister.
"He is worried about the economic situation, the financial blockade against Venezuela and the way our external debt is being used to block access to resources for social investment for Venezuelans," Arreaza said.
De Zayas will have unlimited access to delegations of Venezuelan institutions, the Popular Power, and civil society organizations. He will also closely follow the talks between the ruling party and the opposition scheduled to December 1 and 2 in the Dominican Republic.
