US stands with Venezuelan opposition candidate who fled to Spain: Blinken

Venezuelan opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, who has fled the country to seek asylum in Spain, "remains the best hope for democracy" in the troubled South American nation, the US secretary of state said on X on Sunday.

"His departure from Venezuela is the direct result of the anti-democratic measures that (President) Nicolas Maduro has unleashed on the Venezuelan people," Antony Blinken added in a statement.
