Kathmandu, Jan. 8
Nepal has called upon all parties involved in
the Venezuelan crisis to exercise maximum restraint and to avoid actions that
may further escalate tensions.
Stating that the government of Nepal has
been closely following the recent developments in Venezuela, the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs (MoFA) urged the concerned parties in a statement late evening
on Wednesday not to escalate tensions.
The MoFA issued the statement on the issue
after the USA conducted strikes on Caracas and captured Nicolas Maduro along
with his wife.
“Nepal underscores the importance of fully
respecting the principles of sovereignty, territorial integrity and political
independence of states, as enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations,”
said MoFA while adding Nepal emphasises that disputes should be resolved
peacefully through dialogue, diplomacy and mutual understanding.
