EU Parliament Rejects Resolution Questioning Venezuela’s Withdrawal from IACHR http://venezuela-us.org/2012/05/24/eu-parliament-rejects-resolution-questioning-venezuela’s-withdrawal-from-iachr/ Progressive groups called it a laughable attempt to discredit the Venezuelan government ahead of elections. With a massive walk-out today, members of the European Parliament rejected a resolution expressing “worry” over Venezuela’s possible withdrawal from the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights and its Court.The resolution, supported exclusively by groups of the extreme right in the EU Parliament and stemming from a request by the Venezuelan presidential candidate Henrique Capriles, obtained just 4.9 percent support (37 out of 754 deputies).The issue, about which deputies were sharply divided, did not have the backing of the progressive groups in the EU Parliament, who instead called it a laughable attempt to discredit the Venezuelan government ahead of elections there.The socialist deputy Vicente Garcés of Spain said that the EU Parliament cannot weigh in on hypothetical issues like that of the possible IACHR withdrawal simply to influence the electoral campaign in Venezuela.For his part, Inés Zuper, vice president of the Commission on Employment and Social Issues, said it was inadmissible and incredible that the issue was even proposed.“It is a clear intervention in the presidential elections of October 7 to influence public opinion in Venezuela” he said, and invited the EU Parliament to instead discuss Venezuela’s achievements in terms of social rights.Progressive social-democratic groups also showed a desire to distance themselves from the attempt to favor the opposition candidate in Venezuela.
