answer text <p>Recent developments such as the announcement by the President of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) that they will have unhindered access to bring humanitarian aid into Venezuela, the expansion of the activities of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) following a visit by their President from 7-11 April, and the entrance of additional UN humanitarian staff into the country, indicate that there may be some improvements to the level of access to Venezuela for providers of humanitarian aid. However, additional steps are needed. We continue to follow developments closely and call for unhindered access for all humanitarian assistance to meet the urgent needs of the Venezuelan people. The UK is providing a package of £6.5 million in aid to respond to the most urgent needs in Venezuela and the region.</p> more like this
