Unity front seems to have fizzled
Dear Editor,
The much hyped unity front and pledges to stave off Venezuela seems to have fizzled and appears to have been nothing more than a facade. The lofty speeches projecting oneness at the Extraordinary Sitting of Parliament have faded into the background.
The touted PR campaign blitz has not materialised, another visit to the Middle East is undertaken, the opposition is busy fact finding while our citizens are in a frenzy with GuyExpo, Black Magenta and Christmas festivities. All this on our side of the border while Venezuela is busy mobilising its people and ramping up its rhetoric.
Where would this end for us?
We await the ruling of the World Court to our provisional requests, which Venezuela has declared would not stop the referendum from going ahead, in its present form.
What sanctions would the UN take against Venezuela were it to defy (as it seems inclined to do) the ruling of the World Court? Would that body show some gall and either suspend or expel that country? After all it was, the UN which referred the controversy to the World Court.
Would nations take a stand…a stand which seems incapable and elusive in the ongoing genocide occurring in the Middle East?
Respectfully,
Shamshun Mohamed
