Caracas said it was “deeply concerned” and rejected “recent narratives of confrontation issued by the Government of the United States of America against the sister Islamic Republic of Iran,” according to a report by teleSUR.
In an official statement, the Venezuelan government said it stood in “firm solidarity with the Iranian people and government,” while calling for an end to US interventionist postures that threaten regional stability.
“Venezuela expresses its firm solidarity with the people and the Iranian government, calling for an end to interference-oriented positions that compromise regional stability,” the statement said.
Caracas also said the use of forceful language runs counter to the fundamental principles of the United Nations Charter and warned that statements by the Trump administration pose a risk to international peace.
“We consider that the use of the language of force departs from the fundamental principles of the Charter of the United Nations,” the statement said, adding that such pronouncements “represent a risk to international peace and hinder the construction of solutions based on mutual respect.”
Meanwhile, Venezuela said it was observing with concern the attempts to destabilize Iran through digital platforms aimed at fueling internal unrest.
Venezuela “observes with concern how there is an attempt to destabilize Iran through the use of digital platforms to promote internal conflict, a technique characteristic of Fifth Generation Warfare,” the statement said.
The Venezuelan government said the situation was being compounded by unilateral coercive measures that it said seek to economically suffocate Iran.
It said these measures form part of an external pressure strategy that violates the sovereignty and social peace of the “sister Iranian nation.”
The statement added that the Bolivarian government, “faithful to its vocation for peace,” reaffirmed that dialogue and diplomacy without foreign interference remain the only path to lasting stability.
“The only path toward durable stability is sovereign dialogue and diplomacy, without foreign interference,” it said.
