The leader of the conservative Popular Party of Spain, Alberto Nuñez Feijóo, called on the European Union to make a more “forceful” statement on the situation in Venezuela.
In addition, she demands that the government of socialist Pedro Sánchez take legal steps to recognize Edmundo González as president of Venezuela. On this matter, the second vice president, Yolanda Díaz, recognized Nicolás Maduro’s victory.
“On July 28, the opposition won in Venezuela and Mr. Edmundo González is the president of Venezuela. There is a transition period there,” said Núñez Feijóo.
He stressed that Spain’s commitment to Latin America is “enormous” and that country should “lead a transition in Venezuela” and criticized Spain for rather following the instructions of the socialist José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, whom he called Maduro’s “henchman.” EFE
