Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, a prominent Venezuelan opposition figure, has commented on the recent ousting of the country's leftist leader, Nicolas Maduro by United States forces. Urrutia, currently in exile in Spain, described the event as a significant milestone for Venezuela, but emphasized that it is insufficient for the nation's full recovery. He insists that true normalcy will only be achieved when all political prisoners are freed and the results of the 2024 election, which he claims to have won, are honored. Urrutia's remarks highlight ongoing concerns about political freedom and the legitimacy of electoral outcomes in Venezuela.
