Venezuela opposition leader Edmundo González reportedly leaves country for Spain
Opponent of Nicolas Maduro – widely seen as legitimate election winner – seeks asylum in Spain after being accused of a series of crimes
Venezuelan opposition presidential candidate Edmundo González has left the South American country after seeking asylum in Spain, according to the Spanish foreign minister.
“Edmundo González, at his own request, flew to Spain on a Spanish air force plane,” José Manuel Albares said in a statement online, adding that the “government of Spain is committed to the political rights and physical integrity of all Venezuelans”.
The surprise departure by the candidate, who Venezuela’s opposition and several foreign governments consider the legitimate winner of July’s presidential election, comes just days after the government ordered his arrest.

I think that now we can say that maduro will stay in power, probably until his death, what we can do now (especially the people / governments of the host countries like the US, Chile or Colombia) is help migrants to rebuild their lives and fulfill their basic needs like medical attention or nourishment, after all, above everything else they are humans just like all of us
