The opposition leader said she would not say where he is hiding
The leader of the Venezuelan opposition, María Corina Machado, denied on Thursday (17) the statement of the country’s president, Nicolás Maduro, according to which she “fled the country” to go to Spain.
“The Venezuelans know that I am here in Venezuela, the people know it and Nicolás Maduro knows it too. The truth is that they desperately want to know where I am and I will not give them this pleasure,” Machado told broadcaster EVTV, reiterating that he has lived for months in hiding so as not to be arrested.
According to the liberal leader, the president lives in “a parallel universe, surrounded by bodyguards” and “knows that the people defeated him” in the July 28 elections.
Last Tuesday (15), Maduro declared on his weekly television program that Machado “fled the country without telling anyone”.
At the time, the head of state even suggested that the opponent must be, at that moment, in some “big bar in Spain”.
Machado has not appeared in public for several weeks, after denouncing the Chavista regime’s fraud in the July elections. Its presidential candidate, Edmundo González Urrutia, is in exile in Spain after receiving three arrest warrants, charging him with “conspiracy, disobedience to the state, terrorism” and other crimes.
The opposition guarantees that González, and not Maduro, won the elections. However, the report of the vote was never presented by the National Electoral Council (CNE), which declared the Chavista victory. .
