Juan Guaidó welcomed the EU initiative to create a "contact group" to prepare the call for free elections in Venezuela

"I have not had the opportunity to listen to the statement (Federica Mogherini), but I can say that everything that is framed at the end of the termination of the usurpation # 39; adds. What I'm celebrating is that it's no longer about "contact group for mediation"Guaidó explained in an interview with NTN24.

According to him, confidence in Nicolás Maduro's proposal for dialogue "has already been defeated". "It is a false dialogue to spare time for the dictatorship. We now know that any mechanism applied must lead to the end of usurpation and free elections, "he added.

On Thursday, the European Union announced the creation of the international contact group. "Your goal is clear," said Federica Mogherini, head of European diplomacy, "Allow Venezuelans to express themselves freely and democratically in new elections."

The president in charge, who badumed the duties of the executive before what he considers as a "usurpation" of power by Nicolás Maduro, is wary of the 90 days deadline imposed by the European Union for the realization of free elections.

"Now, about the deadline proposed by the EU, well, let's discuss"he said.

During a lengthy interview with Colombian media, Guaidó also discussed what happened Thursday at his home during the FAES uniformed visit.

"Also Tuesday, they were at my mother's house try to harbad and intimidate. It will not work. Today, the officials asked about my wife and my daughter, if she was there. They wandered around the place, among others. They do it to intimidate. And here is an important message for those who are usurping power in Miraflores: It will not work. This is not Venezuela from a year ago or that from 2 years ago. We are totally optimistic, "replied Guaidó.

At another point in the interview, the MP and Speaker of the National Assembly was questioned about the current state of Venezuela.

"It's not linear, but things are built in parallel. We are working on the construction of a transitional government. Also works in the country plan. But if it was a football game, we are in the last game of the final, and these are the last minutes of the match, and democracy wins. But the situation of kidnappings and the dictatorship continue, "he said.

Finally, the reporter consulted him to find out if he was considering requesting a US military intervention in Venezuela: "All options are evaluated."
