These measures include issuing requests to the Venezuelan justice system to send copies of judicial proceedings and to the hospitals where the victims were treated in order to access medical records, a list of professionals who treated them and death certificates.<\/p>\n<p>He also called for documents to be requested from the United Nations, the Organization of American States, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/world\/international-criminal-court-issues-putin-arrest-warrant-child-deportations-ukraine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">International Criminal Court<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>A United Nations fact-finding mission to Venezuela concluded in 2022 crimes against humanity were carried out in Venezuela.
