The Foreign Policy Commission of the National Assembly of Venezuela presented Tuesday before the House a proposed resolution to urge the government of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro to “assess” the breakdown of diplomatic and commercial relations with Spain.
The document, read by MP Roy Daza, urges the Venezuelan government to “assess within a peremptory time limit the rupture of diplomatic relations and commercial activities with the Kingdom of Spain as a reciprocal action to the crude and intrusive proposal adopted by the Congress of Deputies of Spain against Venezuelan institutions.
And the Assembly, especially its president Jorge Rodríguez, has been very belligerent towards Spain. “It’s been more than 200 years we expel them forever from this land“200 years ago we stopped being slaves to the Spanish empire. We are not going to allow anything to the North American empire or its lackeys in Europe,” Rodriguez said, generating more tensions between the countries by urging Congress to recognize Edmundo Gonzalez as president-elect.
Likewise, he rejects “the crude and intrusive decision” adopted by Madrid, which “intends to ignore the democratic institutions of the country and the sovereign will of an entire people who legitimately elected Nicolas Maduro Moros as re-elected president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.”
The text also assures that “in recent years Spain’s Far Right Has Sheltered Fascist Criminals and Terrorists convicted and confessed” who, together with the Venezuelan right, “favored failed coups in the country, as well as the explosion of violence to generate destabilization,” including “the fascist actions of July 29, 30 and 31.”
Daza informed the National Assembly that this proposal will be presented to the Secretariat so that it can be considered. This comes after the President of the House, Jorge Rodríguez, urged the deputies to approve a resolution of this style.
The Spanish Congress, with the favorable vote of the PP, Vox, UPN, CC and PNV, approved last week a non-legislative proposal from the “popular” partyin which the government is invited to recognize Edmundo González, who has been a refugee in Spain since Sunday, as president-elect after the presidential elections of July 28 in Venezuela.
