Caracas, April 14 (RHC)-- The Venezuelan government has blasted the Israeli regime for its destabilizing actions in the Middle East, emphasizing that the United Nations' inaction has worsened the unstable situation in the region.

Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yvan Gil said in a social media post on Sunday that the key to achieving peace in the Middle East lies in upholding justice and international law, particularly in relation to the Palestinian people and state.  “As a result of the genocide in Palestine and the irrationality of the Israeli regime as well as the inaction of the United Nations, the situation of instability in the region has worsened dramatically in recent weeks,” the statement said.

“Venezuela has a clear position. This is a massacre by Israel. We at the United Nations had a very critical position in this regard, that this situation must be stopped,” the Venezuelan foreign minister said in February.

Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) launched “extensive” retaliatory missile and drone strikes against the occupied territories on Saturday night local time, in response to the Israeli regime’s terrorist attack of April 1st against the Islamic Republic’s diplomatic premises in the Syrian capital Damascus.

In a letter addressed to UN chief Antonio Guterres and Security Council President Vanessa Frazier on Saturday, Tehran asserted that its recent strike on Israel is a legitimate and warranted response to Israeli “aggressions.”

Iran’s invocation of Article 51 of the UN Charter occurred following a 13-day period marked by the Security Council’s inaction and silence, coupled with its failure to condemn the Israeli regime’s aggressions.

Earlier, the Iranian mission to the United Nations said the UN Security Council’s condemnation of the Israeli atrocity could have prevented the need for retaliation.
