The topic Venezuela remains in the spotlight of the Brazilian president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. This Friday, the president spoke again about the situation in the neighboring country in an interview he held for Radio Gaúcha.
Lula said that currently Venezuela “lives under a very unpleasant regime, with an authoritarian tendency“, however, he dismissed the idea of classifying it as a “dictatorship«. In this new interview he again demanded the publication of the minutes of the electoral process.
«The opposition says it won, Maduro says he won and I can only recognize that the process was democratic if they present the evidence“, he said.
The Brazilian president reacted to the refusal of Nicolás Maduro and the opposition to the suggestion he made just a day ago, of to hold a new presidential election if the election results are not recognizedas a solution to the political crisis in the country.
«I think there are many countries willing to help us live in peace in South America.“, he said.
It must be remembered that just over 24 hours ago Lula launched the proposal that Maduro consider the call for new elections, and the launch of the creation of an electoral committee that includes members of the opposition and international observers.
He also revealed that his relationship with the Chavista leader has deteriorated greatly, due to the worsening political situation in Venezuela.
These measures proposed by the president of the Amazonian giant come exactly two weeks after an international outcry has been raised to demand the publication of the official minutes of the election results.
