2011-01-27
After the presentation of the Human Rights Watch (HRW) annual report on Monday where the NGO labeled as "precarious" human rights

situation in Venezuela, pro-government deputy Jesús Faría (United Socialist Party of Venezuela, PSUV), replied that the organization is trying to "build a case" to state that Venezuela is "a rogue state" and present a negative image of the country abroad.

"Human Rights Watch has become an international spokesperson of Venezuela's opposition; it is an ideological tool of imperialism," Farías said in an interview with the state-run TV network VTV.

In addition, "we are characterized as drug pushers, terrorists, in order to present an entirely negative image of the country," Farías said.
