The presidential candidate of the majority opposition of Venezuela, Edmundo González Urrutia, offered the anti-chavista leader María Corina Machado the position she wants, in case of winning the elections, for which he appears as the contender to be defeated by the ruling party, according to most polls.
“I want to tell you that the position she wants will be occupied (by her) in the next government,” the standard-bearer of the Democratic United Platform (PUD), the largest opposition coalition, told journalists in the state of Zulia (west, border with Colombia).
The former ambassador thus responded to the question about the position that Machado would have in his eventual government, since the former deputy was elected as the original candidate of the PUD for these elections, but could not register with the National Electoral Council (CNE) due to a disqualification of the Comptroller’s Office.
González Urrutia made this brief statement minutes before leading a caravan in Maracaibo, capital of Zulia, where thousands of supporters filled several streets of the city to show their support for this candidacy, when there are two days of campaign left.
The candidate offered this press conference with Machado and, later, both led the caravan aboard a truck, from which they greeted the crowd that chanted slogans such as “this government is going to fall,” in reference to Chavismo, in power since 1999.
In Sunday’s elections, González Urrutia will face the current ruler, Nicolás Maduro – who seeks his second re-election – and eight other contenders with no numerical possibility of triumph at the polls, according to opinion studies of traditional firms.
