The panel of electoral experts from the United Nations Organization (UN) sent to Venezuela has already shown a provisional report on the presidential elections to the rectors of the National Electoral Council (CNE) and prepares its final version for Secretary-General António Guterres.
At his daily press conference, Guterres’ spokesman Farhan Haq said the panel concluded its work in Venezuela on August 2 and has already “an interim report was submitted to the Secretary General” that was “recently shared with CNE board members”EFE quoted. This provisional report will be available on a website, Haq said.
“The panel continues to monitor the technical aspects of the remaining phases of the electoral process (in Venezuela), according to its terms of reference, and will provide a final report to the secretary general,” he added.
The panel of four experts arrived in Venezuela in early July, invited by the CNE to monitor the presidential elections on July 28 and It is tasked with preparing an independent report whose conclusions are not public but reserved for the Secretary General.
On Tuesday, the president of the National Assembly, Jorge Rodríguez, called the United Nations panel of experts “garbage” in response to the possibility that they might publish the report.
«They signed, they have no words, they are trash without words. That panel of experts is a panel of trash without words. Because they signed saying that the report is private and that only the Electoral Power of Venezuela and the Secretary General of the United Nations would know it. But they already announced that they will make it public. They just announced it today»questioned Rodríguez, visibly angry, reported Monitoreamos.
According to the Carter Center, whose mission observed the elections, the election “could not be considered democratic” and the winner was Edmundo González Urrutia.
