Preparation Debate

Opening Statement
Good morning Madame Secretary and the delegates of the United Nations.
As the representatives of Venezuela, we are in the position of defeating this resolution. Cutting development aid would have a negative impact on our country’s development. The cutting of developmental aid would affect our Health care, our reconstruction of the environment due to natural disasters and would not allow us to achieve the goals that we have set out for our justice system. With the foreign aid our country receives, we have money to open up more medical clinics; we are able to provide financial and humanitarian aid to our people affected by natural disasters, and will be able to reduce the crime rates in Venezuela. Venezuela is a recipient and donor of aid. It has donated food and humanitarian aid to a suffering country like Haiti. We have received financial aid from the bank of the south, the money that we received went to improving our health care system and the quality of life in Venezuela. To improve the quality of life in Venezuela we have traded our most important resource, Oil to Cuba for well trained doctors. Development Aid is crucial for the development of our country.

Closing Statement
In conclusion the government of Venezuela is in need of developing aid for natural disasters like the major flooding and landslides that have occured in Venezuela. Also to maintain an improved Heath care and to better support our justice system witch is essential for a counrty to be improved and so we should oppose the resolution. Since we put the aid we do receive to good use we should continue to receive this aid as needed.
