Miami (EFE) protect Venezuelans who resist the “dictatorship” of Nicolás Maduro.
In a press conference, the opponent urged mechanisms such as sanctions to be able to put pressure on Maduro and regretted that the Inter-American Charter of Human Rights is pure “poetry.”
Guaidó arrived in this city last Tuesday morning, after having been “forced” by the Government of Colombia to leave that country.
Unity and vigilance for the elections
The opponent said that the best candidate in the upcoming elections is “unity” and considered that the vote of Venezuelans abroad is essential.
In this sense, he asked the international community for its support to achieve free elections and primaries in which all those who want can compete.
The Venezuelan opponent previously told the Telemundo network that he maintains the “commitment” to seek free elections in Venezuela and that he is going to seek political support in the US to achieve it, but that his purpose is to return to his country.
Guaidó’s discomfort with the Colombian government
Guaidó left Venezuela circumventing a ban and unsuccessfully tried to attend an international conference in Bogotá on the political process in Venezuela promoted by Colombian President Gustavo Petro.
The opponent was very critical of the Colombian government because, according to what he said, it threatened him with “deportation to a dictatorship” that “persecutes” him.
At various points in the interview with Telemundo, he pointed out that the Colombian government is an “ally” of the “dictatorship of Nicolás Maduro” and thanked the US for helping him leave Colombia “safely.”
