00:00The previous days that Edmundo González left the country, we were contacted by people close

00:13to Mr. González Urrutia for holding talks with President Nicolás Maduro about the desire

00:24that Edmundo Urrutia has regarding abandoning the country.

00:30And so we initiated the contacts with those people, and then he later commissioned Vice

00:41President Delcy Rodríguez for her to be her representative in the conversations with Mr.

00:48González Urrutia.

00:52Then we had direct talks with Mr. González Urrutia by phone conversations and personal

01:04conversations between Mr. González Urrutia, who invited us the night before departing

01:12Venezuela to hold talks in the Spanish embassy to Caracas.

01:20As gossips are broadcasted, well, here it is, I show the letter duly signed by Mr.

01:35Edmundo González Urrutia.

01:38At first I am going to show you his signature, and then there you see Edmundo González Urrutia,

01:47the ID 20,000,003, and my signature as received as a witness in the act of signing.

02:04And then you see on the first page, you see the signature of Mr. González Urrutia and

02:12my signature.

02:15This is the original letter that Mr. González Urrutia sent me, Citizen Rodríguez Gómez,

02:27President of the National Assembly.

02:30There you see the first letters, the first words are noticeable because he recognizes

02:44the National Assembly of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, elected in December 2020, which

02:53have a duration of five years as all legislative terms that were approved by the Bolivarian

03:04Constitution of Venezuela.

03:06Jorge Rodríguez Gómez, President of the National Assembly.

03:10There you see it is not said Juan Guaidó or any other opposition member.

03:18And so that is pointed out by González Urrutia.

03:22I directed to you on my condition as a Venezuelan citizen on the duly time to refer to the events

03:33that happened after the July 28th elections.

03:40And so there's another news.

03:47The National Electoral Council, as González Urrutia highlighted, issued the results of

03:54presidential elections of July 28th, 2024.

04:01I pointed it out because many media outlets and foreign governments, enemies of the free

04:10independent revolution of Venezuela, they insist on saying that the National Electoral

04:18Council has not issued any results.

04:22And even González Urrutia recognized that the National Electoral Council issued results.

04:29And then, as it is of your knowledge, on August 20, 2024, the Supreme Court of Justice issued

04:45a final judgment about the contentious appeal filed by Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro

04:55before the controversy emerged after the presidential elections.
