The leader of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA), Jorge Arreaza, described on Sunday the Secretary General of the OAS, Luis Almagro, as “ridiculous”, after the organization also described as “ridiculous” to expect that the presidential elections of July 28 in Venezuela would be “free”, whose official result gave a questionable victory to President Nicolás Maduro.
“You are ridiculous and your decadent role as an agent of imperialism is one that you fully fulfill,” the former Venezuelan foreign minister also stated through his Telegram channel.
He also said that since 2015, Almagro “has done nothing but attack Venezuelan democracy and institutions, promote coups, sanctions, military invasion, violence, destabilization, migration and death.”
“You have already far surpassed the record of the OAS hitman (secretary) general most devoted to Washington’s orders and designs,” Arreaza reiterated.
On Sunday, the OAS accused the Venezuelan “authoritarian regime” of having “forced the exile” of the anti-Chavez leader and former presidential candidate Edmundo González Urrutia, who arrived in Madrid on Sunday after requesting asylum in Spain, considering that he was suffering political and judicial persecution after the elections.
The largest anti-Chavez coalition insists that González Urrutia was the winner of the presidential election – as the OAS also believes – an assertion that the opposition alliance supported with the “83.5%” of the electoral records that they claim to have collected from witnesses and polling station members on voting day, contrary to what ALBA says, which calls for Maduro’s reelection to be respected.
The opposition leader arrived in Spain after taking refuge for a time in the residence of the Spanish embassy in Caracas and also in another European legation, the Dutch one, and avoided being arrested in his country.
Venezuelan justice had ordered the opposition leader’s arrest after he ignored three summonses from the Public Prosecutor’s Office, which accuses him of various crimes for publishing voting records from the elections.
In its statement, the OAS described the summons issued by the Prosecutor’s Office as “unfounded.”

The recent presidential elections in Venezuela have highlighted the deepening divide between ALBA and the OAS. The OAS has accused the Venezuelan government of manipulating the election results, while ALBA has called for respect of Venezuela’s sovereignty and the election outcome [2[2[2[2[2[2[2[2].
