Former presidential candidate in Chile Daniel Jadue addresses the International Summit Against Fascism alongside Venezuelan Foreign Minister Felix Plascencia. Mexico City, Mexico, April 18, 2022 (venezuelanalysis.com) – The Gabriel Boric government in Chile distanced itself from comments made by Daniel Jadue after he praised Venezuela’s human rights record while in the country to participate in the International Summit Against Fascism in Caracas. Jadue, a former presidential candidate and leading figure in the Communist Party of Chile,, highlighted the efforts by Venezuelan authorities to punish human rights violations, contrasting the lack of justice in cases of abuses by the armed forces in his native Chile. Echoing Washington’s accusations that the Nicolás Maduro government is guilty of human rights violations, fellow Communist Party member Camila Vallejo, spokesperson for the Chilean government and cabinet member, said that Boric’s foreign policy was driven by “unrestricted respect for human rights”.
