The PP Spokesperson in the European Parliament, Dolors Montserrat, has asked the High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy of the EU, Josep Borrell, after the meeting of Minister José Luis Ábalos in Madrid with the vice president of the Venezuelan regime, Delcy Rodríguez, to demand the government of Pedro Sanchez to comply with the European sanctions that prevent the entry into the EU of charges of the dictatorship of Maduro as Rodriguez herself.
Montserrat also asks Borrell to take immediate action to ensure that the governments of the EU Member States do not receive charges belonging to regimes such as Venezuela.
In addition, the popular spokeswoman has demanded that Pedro Sánchez “keep the recognition of Juan Guaidó as legitimate president of Venezuela, offer him express support and meet him as other European leaders like Angela Merkel have done, because it would be unworthy not do what".
"The PP has been and will always be in favor of democracy and those who fight for freedom and respect for human rights," said Montserrat.

González Pons recalled in his question that Rodriguez is banned from entering the EU for “having undermined democracy and the rule of law in Venezuela, in particular through the usurpation of the powers of the National Assembly and its use to attack the opposition and prevent him from participating in the political process. ”
