MADRID 10 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Venezuelan presidential candidate Edmundo González confirmed this Friday that “very soon” he will travel to Venezuela to take office as president after Nicolás Maduro has been sworn in in the capital, Caracas.
“I am very close to Venezuela. I am ready for safe entry and at the right moment I will assert the votes that represent the recovery of our democracy,” González stressed in a video posted on social networks.
In this sense, he stressed that President Nicolás Maduro “has violated the Constitution and the sovereign will of Venezuelans expressed on July 28.” “He carries out a coup d’état. He crowns himself a dictator,” he declared.
At the end of July, Venezuela held presidential elections in which the ruling party gave victory to Maduro, although the opposition denounced fraud in the vote count and claimed González’s victory, supported by part of the international community.
