That this House notes the recently held presidential election in Venezuela and worldwide condemnation of its legitimacy and subsequent outcome, the deteriorating human rights situation and collapse of democracy along with constitutional changes that mean effective opposition is impossible in the country; joins with the rest of the international community to condemn the legitimacy of the result and the continued presidency of Nicolas Maduro; supports the sanctions by the US and EU to prevent senior figures in the regime from profiting from their political power; and calls on the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs to continue to press for further sanctions against that regime.
