Hicieron mil simulacros de invasión estadounidense y ni un solo simulacro de terremoto.
No informan, no hay reportes de daños, no hay plan de contingencia.
María Corina Machado about Delcy Rodríguez:
“I want to warn that if there is one thing this regime has known how to do efficiently in the past, it is to buy time and take advantage of efforts made in good faith.
Delcy Rodríguez is part of the regime. There is no way a country where 86% of the population lives in poverty can attract real investment.
Who is going to invest in Venezuela if there is no independent judiciary and private property is not respected?
In this hemisphere and beyond, the law enforcement operation has generated expectations and hope, but it has also sent a clear message across the region about security—and to irregular and criminal actors about the consequences of their actions.
They understand that this is over. This model is not sustainable.
For reconciliation to happen, there must be justice.
We must dismantle the system of repression so that people can express themselves freely. It is not just about political prisoners: they can be released and still not be truly free”.
María Corina Machado to US Senators:
"What is happening right now is historic, not only for the future of Venezuela, but for the future of freedom in the world.
I am just one of millions of Venezuelans determined to recover freedom, justice, and democracy for our country. We want our families to be together again. We want dignity. We want equality.
We want equality before the law. We are a deeply pro-American society. Today, in Venezuela, there is not a single institution that is truly standing.
I want to assure you that we are going to turn Venezuela into a free and secure country, and into the strongest ally the United States has ever had in this region.
When Venezuela is free, millions of Venezuelans will return of their own free will. There is hope for the future.
You trusted the Venezuelan people when many believed it was impossible. We managed to reunite a country.
This will be difficult — very difficult — but what we have achieved so far is extraordinary.
I have just had an extraordinary meeting with President Trump.
I know there are concerns about what has happened in Venezuela. January 3 changed the history of our country forever, and for the better.
I ask you to think about everything we have lived through: 26 years, 35 elections, millions of people in the streets. Some were murdered. Teenagers and children. Women sexually abused simply for defending their vote. Seventeen different attempts at dialogue, all of them betrayed.
This administration understands that if we want Venezuelans to return, we must rebuild institutions, respect human rights, guarantee freedom of expression, uphold the rule of law, and establish a new, authentic electoral process.
I have insisted — and I will continue to insist — that Venezuela has a president-elect, and I am very proud to work alongside him.
Regarding my meeting with President Trump:
I believe the President understands very well what is happening in Venezuela and fully grasps our country’s potential as a strong ally of the United States.
He is deeply concerned about the safety of the Venezuelan people — about children who are not going to school because teachers earn barely one dollar a day. The President truly understands this reality.
I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to convey what the Venezuelan people are going through at this moment".
Quiero informar que tuve una conversación telefónica -duró 17 minutos- con el presidente del Gobierno de España, Pedro Sánchez, sobre la situación de Venezuela.
Le manifesté que la liberación de los presos políticos venezolanos no puede ser selectiva y además debe ser verificada, sin duda, libertad plena e incondicional.
La comunidad internacional —y España en particular— conoce bien la diferencia entre gestos tácticos y compromisos reales con la democracia y el Estado de derecho.
Venezuela necesita una transición real y para ello debe haber libertad para todos los presos políticos,
fin de la persecución, desarme de los grupos paraestatales y respeto a la voluntad popular manifestada en 28 de Julio.
Nos obligaron a irnos del país y aprendimos inglés, sueco, francés, portugués, italiano.
Ahora nos aguantan explicando lo que pasa en Venezuela en todos los idiomas de este puto mundo.
Muchas gracias, Presidente Macron.
La libertad de TODOS los presos políticos es nuestra inmediata prioridad.
Le pido a los jefes de Estado y de Gobierno y a todos los demócratas del mundo que nos apoyen en esta hora decisiva.
Venezuela será libre.
Acabo de hablar con @MariaCorinaYA.
Apoyo plenamente su llamado a la liberación y a la protección de los presos políticos del régimen de Nicolás Maduro.
Como todos los venezolanos, puede contar con el apoyo de Francia para alzar la voz en favor de una transición pacífica, democrática y plenamente respetuosa de la voluntad soberana del pueblo venezolano.
Conmovida que tanta gente se preocupe por el petróleo de mi país pero no por los 1000 presos políticos torturados en el Helicoide y por los 8 millones de desplazados alrededor del mundo. Gracias 🤡
The Venezuelan people are today rid of Nicolás Maduro’s dictatorship and can only rejoice.
By seizing power and trampling on fundamental freedoms, Nicolás Maduro gravely undermined the dignity of his own people.
The upcoming transition must be peaceful, democratic, and respectful of the will of the Venezuelan people. We wish that President Edmundo González Urrutia, elected in 2024, can swiftly ensure this transition.
I am currently exchanging with our partners in the region.
France is fully mobilized and vigilant, including to ensure the safety of its nationals during these uncertain times.
