The former Argentine president said she “fully” agrees with the statement signed on Thursday, August 1, by the governments of Brazil, Mexico and Colombia, where they called on the Venezuelan electoral authorities to “expeditiously” publish the data “broken down by voting table.”
Former Argentine President Cristina Fernández joined the call on Saturday to make transparent and publish the minutes of the presidential elections in Venezuela that took place on July 28, where the National Electoral Council (CNE) declared Nicolás Maduro the winner.
At a forum organized by Mexico’s ruling party, the National Regeneration Movement (Morena), Fernández urged the CNE to publish the minutes, “not only for the Venezuelan people, for the opposition and for democracy,” but also “for the legacy of Hugo Chávez himself,” he said.
“That is what we have to ask for: that the minutes be published so that everyone can scrutinize them, international public opinion, the opposition, the people of Venezuela,” said Fernandez.
Fernández said he “fully” agrees with the statement signed on Thursday, August 1, by the governments of Brazil, Mexico and Colombia, where they called on the Venezuelan electoral authorities to “expeditiously” publish the data “broken down by voting table” of the elections.
He noted that, despite the fact that the CNE reported that they had been “hacked,” they were able to announce the results of a count that covered 96.87% of the votes, detailing the number of voters and the results obtained by each of the ten candidates.
“It is clear that if the scrutiny that was meticulously read yesterday, with decimal precision in each of the candidates that were presented, was able to be carried out because there is a double system, the computer support that was ‘hacked’, but also the support of the minutes that were signed and sent to the National Electoral Council,” he explained.
He asked to remember that when one speaks of Venezuela, one is “talking about the world’s largest oil reserve.”
“Let us never forget this… let us explain to our Latin American compatriots that there is a country in our territory, in Latin America, that has more oil than the Arabs and that is called Venezuela,” said Fernandez.
