Abstract

Venezuela has expelled 13 United Nations human rights workers from the country after they criticized the arrest of a military analyst and the government's crackdown on opposition figures. The UN Fact-Finding Mission issued a report urging the government to end the repression against opponents. In response, the Venezuelan government suspended the activities of the UN High Commissioner's office, accusing the report of being one-sided and in support of those trying to overthrow President Nicolás Maduro. Human rights activists protested the arrest of the military analyst, who is facing charges of treason, conspiracy, and terrorism. [Extracted from the article]
