Abascal regretted the forced exile of Edmundo González

«Some with brutal torture even of children, with repression and murders and others, by not recognising the legitimate and elected president after elections that were not fair and by not doing what they should have done both in the EU and from the government, have achieved what the regime (of Maduro) intended: González’s forced exilehe lamented.
