The sectoral vice president of Planning, Ricardo Menéndez, denounced that Unilateral Coercive Measures interfere with the right of countries to develop economic and social models that allow the fulfillment of their goals.
“Unilateral Coercive Measures aim to restrict the right to development. For example, how is such a right possible if we silently allow a country to stop receiving 55 billion dollars annually and go on to receive 700 million dollars the following year as a consequence of these measures,” Menéndez inquired during his participation in the V Meeting of Regional Conference on Population and Development of Latin America and the Caribbean held in Bogotá, Colombia, and organized by the ECLAC.
