Feijóo: The US follows the path opened by the PP after recognizing Edmundo González as president-elect
The president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, assured this Wednesday that the United States “follows the path” opened by the Popular Party in Spain and in the European Union after recognizing Edmundo González as elected president of Venezuela.
«The United States recognizes Edmundo González as elected president of Venezuela. Follow the path opened by the Popular Party in Spain and in the European Union«, said the leader of the opposition in a message on the social network X.
Feijóo’s statements come after the State Department of the US government issued a brief statement on Tuesday recognizing the Venezuelan opposition leader as the winner of the elections held on July 28: “The Venezuelan people spoke out forcefully on the 28th. July and named Edmundo González president-elect. “Democracy demands respect for the will of the voters.”
In September, the ‘popular’ party managed to approve resolutions in both the European Parliament and the Congress and Senate to recognize the opposition candidate Edmundo González “as the legitimate winner” of the presidential elections in Venezuela and, therefore, as elected and legitimate president of the country.
