Venezuela’s opposition leader, Edmundo González, expressed optimism in an interview with Euronews, stating that “Europe is with us” in their fight for democracy and human rights in the country. This statement comes as the European Parliament officially recognized González as the president-elect of Venezuela.
González, who has been a vocal critic of current president Nicolás Maduro and his government, has been championing for democratic reforms and an end to the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela. He believes that with the support of Europe, the opposition movement in Venezuela will be able to gain traction and bring about much-needed change in the country.
The recognition by the European Parliament is seen as a significant milestone for González and the Venezuelan opposition, as it signals international backing for their efforts. The move is likely to put additional pressure on Maduro’s regime, which has faced widespread condemnation for its human rights abuses and authoritarian rule.
González has called on the international community to continue supporting the Venezuelan people in their quest for democracy and freedom. He believes that with solidarity and collective action, they can overcome the challenges facing their country and build a better future for all citizens.
As Venezuela continues to grapple with political and economic turmoil, the recognition of Edmundo González as the president-elect by the European Parliament serves as a beacon of hope for the opposition and a reminder that they are not alone in their struggle. With Europe standing by their side, González and his supporters are hopeful that they will be able to bring about positive change and restore democracy in Venezuela.
