CARACAS, Venezuela.–The Venezuelan Parliament, in a meeting this Tuesday, decided to approve a set of laws to care for and protect the population from hatred, terrorism and the spread of fascist ideas on social networks, declared the resident of the Assembly National (AN), Jorge Rodríguez.
These are the Law on Supervision, Performance and Financing of Non-Profit Organizations and the Law against Fascism, Neo-Fascism and Similar Expressions. The latter had been presented in April by the executive vice president, Delcy Rodríguez.
After the parliamentary meeting, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, urged the Venezuelan Government "not to adopt these or other laws that undermine the civic and democratic space of the country." Likewise, he referred to alleged "arbitrary arrests" and the "disproportionate use of force by law enforcement agencies."
