As Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yván Gil explained on his Telegram channel, the ambassador must appear at the Foreign Ministry this Friday at the request of the Chavista executive. Venezuela believes that Robles’ statements “indicate a deterioration in relations between both countries.”

Robles stated, after the Edmundo González Urrutia arrives in Spainthat what the Venezuelan government is doing to “many” anti-Chavistas is “unacceptable and unacceptable.”
