Venezuela’s president-elect, Edmundo Gonzalezleft the country on board a Spanish Falcon and with a letter under his arm signed under duress and “threats“, in which he undertakes to break with politics and accept Nicolas Maduro as president. The Spanish ambassador to Caracas. This is what González himself said, who did not reveal the personal threats that his family and especially his daughters have received. The Maduro regime sent them messages indicating that their father was going to die. “in prison” if he did not accept an outcome.
Diplomatic sources consulted by OKDIARIO indicate that Edmundo González confessed to his relatives some of the details that led him to make the decision to leave Venezuela in a hurry and accept the “offer” of asylum from the Venezuelan government. Pedro Sanchez. The pressure exerted by the Chavista regime on the daughters of the elected president, Mariana Del Carmen and CarolineThe first continues to live in Venezuela, while the second resides in Madrid.
According to these sources, the regime has been giving his daughters the message for weeks that sooner or later their father would be captured, prosecuted and imprisoned for a crime. long list of alleged crimes: usurpation of functions, falsification of public documents, incitement to disobedience of the laws, conspiracy, sabotage with damage to the system and illegal association. Some accusations according to which would put Gonzále in prison for decadesz, 75 years old. “He will die in prison”This was the insistent message that his family environment received from people who spoke on behalf of the Bolivarian National Intelligence Service (Sebin).
These threats, these sources report, have damaged the spirit of Edmundo González, whom the regime had already baptized “Impure” and had summoned him to testify about this long list of alleged crimes.
The Maduro regime did not know exactly in which embassy the president-elect had taken refuge since the early hours of the elections. It was suspected that he had done so in one of the a country in northern Europe or in Argentina. The pressure on the latter was redoubled with police vehicles constantly surrounding the delegation – pressure that disappeared with the departure of Edmundo González from the country.
In his refuge at the Dutch embassy, diplomatic sources explain, González made the decision to leave the country. He did so without communicating or negotiating with its political environment, as the Dutch Foreign Minister acknowledged, Caspar Veldkamp. Edmundo González has contacted a representative from Spain and is willing to temporarily move to the Spanish delegation to be able to sign the pact that Maduro demanded in exchange for safe passage to leave the country by plane. The Netherlands was reluctant to let him go, warning that what the Chavista regime was offering was blackmail. The regime, when it learned of his location and the attempts to prevent his departure under these conditions, reacted by accusing the Netherlands of having “kidnapped” him.
However, the pressure on the family of the president-elect was decisive in the decision to sign this resignation letter to politics under the watchful eye of the Spanish ambassador in Caracas, Ramón Santos, and with the full knowledge of the Spanish government, which a few days earlier had already mobilized a Falcon military in the Dominican Republic and launched a hijacking operation, with false flight plans and early morning movements, with the aim of expelling the Venezuelan leader from the country. And with that, pave the way for Maduro.
“Coercion” on Spanish soil
As more details become known about how the president-elect’s departure came about, Edmundo Gonzalez of Venezuela, the less the official version proposed by the government of Pedro Sánchez is supported.
Moncloa and the Foreign Ministry deny that any negotiation or agreement has taken place, but the images of González signing a letter of resignation under “coercion and threats” at the residence of the Spanish ambassador leave Sánchez’s executive in a complicated position. In recent hours, he has been the right-hand man of Nicolas Maduro, Goddess Hair, who categorically denied the Spanish version: yes, there was a “gentleman’s agreement” to dismiss Edmundo González and accuses the Sánchez government of “Always lie.” “For them, damage control is terrible,” he said.
Cabello specifically attacked the government of Pedro Sánchez for denying its participation in these negotiations, and in the pact “of gentlemen and a lady, Delcy” to provoke the departure of the elected president. A process in which, according to the Chavista thesis, Spain was a participant and accomplice, an extreme that the Sánchez government has denied throughout the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Jose Manuel Albares.
“The first thing that happened with this letter was that the Spanish government said that there was no negotiation with us. But suddenly the man appeared in Spain. How did you get to Spain? How did a plane from the Spanish Air Force arrive? To get on a plane, it must be authorized by our government, the government of the revolution. And why does it come? To take a passenger. This person needs safe passage. Oh, Isn’t this a negotiation?Diosdado Cabello questioned.
“They always try to lie and they do not assume their role. For them, damage control is terrible.we assume the truth. They broke what had been agreed, the Gentlemen’s Agreement, and with a lady who was there, who is Vice President Delcy. Comrade Jorge Rodríguez, who was participating in the negotiations, came out and showed the signed document. Jorge signed it as received.
“Earlier today we woke up with someone telling us that he had leaked a letter from this man. An agreement that had been reached with the Government. Something for many that clarifies how he left Venezuela. But his lawyer said he had not signed anything. In the end, the man came out saying yes, sign,” Cabello stressed.
In the Spanish diplomatic residence
Delcy RodriguezVice President of the Chavista dictatorship of Venezuela, and her brother Jorge RodriguezPresident of the National Assembly, forced Edmundo González, president-elect of Venezuela, to sign a document in which he recognized the victory of Nicolas Maduro in the elections and renounced his claims to the presidency of the country. The events took place in the house of the Spanish ambassador, Ramon Santoswhich is as if it were the embassy itself, where Delcy Rodriguez Access is prohibited as this is the case on Spanish soil.
The regime, through its official press agency, Venezuela News, published the images in which González appeared signing the document with Delcy and Jorge Rodríguez at the ambassador’s residence. The publication of these images is intended to sow doubt and humiliate the winner of the elections.
The signing of this document was the condition for Gonzalez could go to Spain seek political asylum. It was Venezuela’s president-elect who revealed on Wednesday that he had been coerced and threatened to sign the document. “Either I signed or I suffered the consequences,” González said in a video posted on his social networks.
