WED Adopts Resolution on Venezuela and Respect for International Law

The World Embassy Desk (WED) has adopted a resolution concerning recent developments relating to Venezuela. The resolution sets out a legal assessment based on the principles of international law, including respect for State sovereignty, the prohibition on the use of force, and the personal inviolability and immunity of serving Heads of State, as reflected in the Charter of the United Nations.

The resolution is declaratory in nature and is accompanied by a Procedural Status Note and an Explanatory Memorandum. It is intended to contribute to de-escalation, dialogue, and the restoration of legality through peaceful and diplomatic means.

Strength of the WED

A positive effect of the WED will be that its actions will not affect the relationship between states. After all, states are not the ones who will act against the state that violates the international agreements; the WED will act on behalf of all members, while the member states will just act according to their commitments to the WED.

Another positive outcome of the WED will be that states will not be able to abuse their economic or military power to force others to act according to their will or to accept a breach by them. After all, by doing that, those states are not only breaching international agreements but also intending to make innocent civilians suffer only for their own agenda. Indeed, just as we as humans may not force our neighbours to live as we see fit, states may not force this on other states, either.
