The Chancellor of the Republic, Yván Gil, rejected the complaint of the Argentine government against Venezuela before the International Criminal Court (ICC), for the arrest and prosecution of gendarme Nahuel Agustín Gallo after allegedly being linked to terrorist actions in the country.
In this sense, he described Javier Milei’s government as “putting on a painful spectacle, from international ridicule to ridicule.”
“Evoking the Rome Statute, clearly unknown to them, to feed their sick political obsession, is a sign not only of ignorance, but of a scandalous lack of seriousness,” said Gil, on his Telegram account.
He assured that the officials of “Milei’s puppet government, who are involved in an extreme right-wing coup and terrorist agenda against Venezuela, use erratic diplomatic actions to justify their own failure and complicity.”
Given this, he emphasized that justice and human rights “are not instruments for desperate agendas.”
“The fiasco they have become only reaffirms them as the laughing stock of global diplomacy,” Gil said.
Arrest of the Argentine gendarme
It should be remembered that on December 27, 2024, the Public Ministry confirmed in a statement the alleged connection of the Argentine gendarme Nahuel Agustín Gallo with terrorist actions in Venezuela by entering the country irregularly.
Reason for which it will be processed according to the law, after having complied with the corresponding procedural deadlines.
In the letter, it is mentioned that the citizen “is subject to the respective investigation for his connection to a group of people who attempted from our territory and with the support of international far-right groups to carry out a series of destabilizing and terrorist actions.”
