Venezuelaâs UN envoy resigns in protest
Venezuelaâs ambassador to the United Nations said on Thursday he was resigning his post in protest at the policies of the government of President Hugo Chavez. Milos Alcalay told a news conference at UN headquarters that his key concerns throughout a 34-year diplomatic career were to promote democracy, human rights and a nonconfrontational foreign policy. âSadly, Venezuela now is operating devoid of these fundamental principles, which I still remain intensely committed to,â he said.
