Guaido, who fled Venezuela to settle in Miami, said about Urrutia’s plans to “return to Venezuela to take the oath of office as president of the Republic on January 10” that he would “return to Venezuela when he can. Be careful with this, when he can do it,” he emphasized.

In addition, Guaido said that it is highly unlikely that Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia will gain significant support for “10 days from the President of the United States taking position, to 10 days from the new President taking position, that is, a transition team taking position, a new Senate having to ratify the positions, etc.”

Urrutia only will come back Venezuela “when it’s safe, when we have the diplomatic recognitions, when we’ve talked to the military, when we also have enough strength” according to Guaido, statements that determine that the plan of reactionary opposition continues to be insurrectional, in clear attack against democratic institutions in Venezuela.

The set of facts since last week’s Thursday are all relevant and build a very clear picture of the current internal state of the strategy of parallel government that could be brewing in the ranks of the most radical and violent opposition in Venezuela.

To top off failed opposition strategies, the Public Ministry of Venezuela confirmed this Friday that Fernando Martínez Mottola, who was detained at the Argentine Embassy in Caracas until Thursday, declared at the institution for “violent, conspiratorial and destabilizing acts” planned at the diplomatic headquarters, which he voluntarily abandoned.

The Prosecutor’s Office added that the opponent voluntarily appeared at its main headquarters in Caracas on Thursday to give statements about the serious violent, conspiratorial and destabilizing events organized from the residence of the Embassy of Argentina, following the presidential elections of 28 July.

Change in the opposition narrative

The narrative turn occurs when Spain formally grants asylum to the former presidential candidate, as confirmed by the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs, José Manuel Albares. “The asylum status requested by Edmundo González in Spain has been granted and will be officially communicated in the coming days,” Albares announced during a press conference at the Senate’s Ibero-American Affairs Commission.

After leaving Venezuela on a Spanish military plane after taking refuge in the Spanish Embassy, Edmundo González initially signed a public statement in which he recognized both the electoral results and Venezuelan institutions. However, his stance has evolved in recent months, culminating in repeated claims about his possible return to Caracas on January 10, the constitutionally scheduled date for the presidential inauguration.

New ambassador of Spain in Venezuela

Meanwhile, diplomatic channels between Spain and Venezuela continue to evolve. The Venezuelan Ministry of Foreign Affairs has confirmed that Álvaro Albacete, the new ambassador of Spain, has presented his credentials in Caracas.

Foreign Minister Yván Gil expressed through his official Telegram account the commitment of the Bolivarian Government to strengthening mutual respect between both nations.
