1. “I apologize for taking the floor at this late hour, but I feel that we have no other choice. We did in fact engage in a statement that the Russian Federation had proposed. We had hoped that it would track with the actual situation on the ground, as opposed to applying an approach that had been used with Haiti. With that in mind, we had hoped to note that Maduro had been given numerous opportunities to engage in good-faith efforts to address Venezuela's political and socioeconomic issues and that he has consistently used such opportunities to consolidate the power of his regime, at the expense of the Venezuelan people. We therefore would have liked the Security Council to underscore the importance ofa true democratic process, and that that would have been allowed to proceed.”
