Distinguished delegates, On this day on which Venezuelans commemorate their independence, I acknowledge Venezuela's engagement with my Office, which is, in and of itself, an important signal. The authorities continue to facilitate visits to civilian detention centres, and interviews with detainees, by my team. Last month, my staff were also able to visit two military detention centres. In addition, they were given access to 13 prosecution case files and three judicial hearings, and had direct exchanges with prosecutors on cases and issues identified by OHCHR, expanding engagement with the Office of the Attorney General to new areas of cooperation.
