been visible and welcome in his way little position lead. i would know gonzalez has bound to continue his fight for democracy in exile of to fling venezuela to seek asylum in spain. support has maintained, he and not president nicholas venturo won the disputed presidential election 6 weeks ago. the opposition says gonzalez left the country because he feared for his life. ben, it's really not a position to say this is designed for president of the country, but he's an i've been spin, right? he's been granted political asylum recently that kind of hack my. depart you from correct cause was ma to buy episodes of prussia,

corrosion on threats of suggesting i wouldn't be allowed to leave. i trust that we will soon continue the fight for liberty. the return of democracy in venezuela edmondo gonzales hotel spaces, addressed back home. after 11 years and follow nicholas my doodle was declared president again of the july elections. but the old position, lita said that dissolves what rig yoko, we'll. what's happened during today's polling i gave was a violation of the rules of us, which i wish to will continues, you know, and we were interested into the will of a people offend this way. law is respected, stay out of position supporters have been prosecuted for that claim. since the

election, the government has detained housings of tool desta and driven opposition leaders into hiding that includes maria corina machado, who stepped aside to make we for gonzales after she was banned from running for president. she have since emerged a few times to need protests against my doodle and to demand a tron, sped and would count. machado spoke out about gonzalez's departure on expediting gonzalez's life was in danger. and that a dream has no scruples or limits, and it's up session to silence him and try to bend him, faced with disputing reality, it is necessary for our calls to preserve his freedom, his integrity and his life. but gonzalez's departure has wadded venezuelans this is i feel hopeless. well

this will hope we had went with him. we appreciate it. i'm very distressed. but at the same time i think he's safe where he is. we need to keep on fighting and have phase april fe machado, however, says gonzales, really be sworn in, in executive in january, and was fight from a broad wild machado with the main to need because in venezuela and let's bring in nicole received was latin america corresponded until recently, the venezuelan government allowed gonzales free passage after having sold his arrest. what are we to make of that? it of course, looks very contradictory if you look at it at 1st glance, because minister last to all is also the country that has the security forces surround p, r. continuing and the see, for example, because political opponents of theme, i drew a compliment with sheltering there and at the other hand,

so it was also the attorney general of, of an issue a lot static william saw from said that they let going thomas leave in accordance with his rights to assign them. now if you look at it from the other perspective, if you could also interpreted as the letting go, so that would be less political troubles for president my brutal for kids. because in the end of the, of the person, the opponent, his department does not in the country anymore. and so his government now can make sure of the narrative. of course, we will see how this will unravel in these next days or weeks. but as we just turned in the report as well, that mixed feelings about gonzales leaving among the population, some might be disappointed. others might just see of course, this as a matter of safety, he had to leave. so it will be very interesting to look at this in the future as well, and to call what spain's position in all of this a. well, the spanish for an minister cost him, i know a lot of that is set that from the very beginning on they were offering gonzales

asylum, which he now is taking advantage of, of course. and he said that this is the 1st and foremost about this safety, but also about protecting democracy and political freedom and the rights to opinion . nevertheless, the spain will not recognize gonzales as the elliptic to me that we know all these past elections that very cautious about that. this is something that the venezuelan got an opposition, has been demanding time and again, and then line with other countries as well. they're rather asking for the spell of papers that everybody wants to see that everybody wants to analyze to make sure that this transparency on the matter, but it proves to be difficult to get access, of course. and then that's still the government's in western countries that are hoping for a political solution, maybe even a transition that could be negotiated, but also less than the american countries, such as for example, for zillow, which is just neighboring with venezuela and gonzalez, fans to continue to fight for democracy and venezuela. how will he be able to do

that from spain? this indeed will prove difficulties now far away from the action. really, i'm position leader, maria cutting out and my title is left and says they will continue the fight. but both now 1st and foremost, need to make sure that the opposition will be united and will stays united. i think this could prove to be a problem because compile us has next. and this for some critics. it also comes from some a position members. obviously it doesn't look good, especially if they want to continue the fight. and it's also very questionable how they would actually swear in somebody from that far away. so we need to still continue to feel i send this story because i'm sure that there will be other developments in the future in the causal g, following it closely. thank you very much. nicole race to bring us up to date. a quick look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world.
