The main Venezuelan opposition parties have called on Wednesday in a statement for the termination of the «interim government» of opposition leader Juan Guaidó, after considering that after almost four years of his proclamation he has not fulfilled the expected objectives.
The leader of the Primero Justicia party, Alfonzo Marquina, has made the statement at a press conference speaking on behalf of 69 (of the 112) opposition deputies who supported Guaidó’s proclamation in 2019. These belong to the main opposition parties: Acción Democrática (AD), Primero Justicia (PJ), Un Nuevo Tiempo (UNT) and Movimiento por Venezuela (MPV).
«The interim government is not the raison d’être of the democratic struggle, it was a necessary instrument at the time, but today we are appointing a commission for the protection of all assets», clarified Marquina, highlighting the duty of all to «assume responsibilities», since «the figure of the internal government does not figure to achieve the objectives in Venezuela», as picked up by the Globovisión network.
The request of the opposition also comes a day before the meeting of the National Assembly, elected at the end of 2015 and considered the counterweight of the Government led by Nicolás Maduro, and where the final resolution regarding the replacement of the interim leader is expected.
Guaidó, who came to be recognized by more than half a hundred countries as «interim president» in 2019 by self-proclaiming himself with such distinction after not recognizing the results of the 2018 presidential election, has seen how his political weight abroad has been waning every year, as well as his leadership within the internal opposition to the government of the president, Nicolás Maduro.
