Seven former Latin American presidents, members of the IDEA Group, spoke on NTN24 and sent a heartfelt message of support to the millions of Venezuelans who are demonstrating this Saturday to demand the opposition's victory on July 28 over the regime of Nicolás Maduro. To talk about this issue, Óscar Arias, former president of Costa Rica and member of the IDEA Group, spoke with the NTN24 program La Tarde. The former president of Costa Rica said during his conversation with NTN24 that: "the reality of any dictatorship is that they remain in power by force, thanks to puppets, and they have disrespected the vote." "Maduro does not know what it is to step away from the presidential chair," added the member of the IDEA Group, who also noted that "it does not surprise me at all, but it does create great sadness for me because of all the expectations that were created that this time they were going to recognize the majority will of the Venezuelan people expressed at the polls on July 28." “These gentlemen cannot give up power or respect the results of the polls because what awaits them is jail,” said Arias, who also referred to the repression against protesters, saying: “In Venezuela, killing a person is called homicide and killing an entire town is called Chavismo.” #NTN24 More information at http://www.ntn24.com Or in Venezuela http://www.ntn24america.com Subscribe to our channel: /ntn24 Follow us on our social networks!
