Venezuela sovereignty

Summary

Rose Conway-Walsh argued against outside interference in Venezuela’s affairs, while the Leader said the earlier contribution was about the humanitarian crisis and Ireland should show leadership. The exchange ended with a brief aside about a possible debate on oil and gas.

I have never been to Venezuela. However, I believe in the right of countries not to have outside interference in their own affairs.
