Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) issued the following statement after dictator Nicolás Maduro held fraudulent legislative elections yesterday. Earlier this year, Rubio sent a letter to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, urging him to support the people of Venezuela and the return of democratic order in the nation ahead of these fraudulent elections.
“Following yesterday’s fraudulent legislative elections by the Maduro regime, it is clear that the Venezuelan people have refused to lose their dignity or their aspirations of living in a nation free from tyranny and oppression,” Rubio said. “Not even using the exploitation of food products, through the regime’s CLAP boxes, as a political weapon forced Venezuelans to cast their vote. The large abstention and empty poll sites are signs that the people of Venezuela are fed up with the regime’s manipulation and constant lies. These sham elections have zero credibility and demonstrated that the corrupt narco-regime is more isolated than ever. The message from democracies worldwide must be loud and clear: these so-called ‘elections’ are not only a farce, they are also maneuvers by the dictator to silence Interim President Juan Guaidó and the members of Venezuela’s democratically elected National Assembly.”
Rubio is the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues.

RUBIO SOBRE LAS ELECCIONES LEGISLATIVAS ILEGÍTIMAS POR PARTE DE MADURO
Washington, D.C. — El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) emitió el siguiente comunicado después que el dictador Nicolás Maduro realizará ayer elecciones legislativas fraudulentas. Este año, Rubio le envió una carta al Secretario General de las Naciones Unidas, António Guterres, instándolo a apoyar al pueblo de Venezuela y el retorno del orden democrático en el país antes que se llevarán a cabo estas elecciones fraudulentas.
“Tras las fraudulentas elecciones legislativas por parte del régimen de Maduro, es evidente que el pueblo venezolano se niega a perder su dignidad o sus aspiraciones de vivir en un país libre de tiranía y opresión”, Rubio dijo. “Ni siquiera el uso de productos alimenticios como un arma política, a través de las cajas CLAP, obligó a los venezolanos a emitir su voto. La gran abstención y los centros de votación vacíos son señales que el pueblo de Venezuela está saciado de la manipulación y las constantes mentiras del régimen. Estas elecciones falsas tienen cero credibilidad y demostraron que el narco-régimen corrupto está más aislado que nunca. El mensaje de las democracias en todo el mundo debe ser claro: estas llamadas ‘elecciones’ no son solo una farsa, también son maniobras del dictador para silenciar al presidente interino Juan Guaidó y a los miembros de la Asamblea Nacional electos democráticamente en Venezuela”.
Rubio es el presidente del Subcomité de Relaciones Exteriores para el Hemisferio Occidental, Delincuencia Transnacional, Seguridad Civil, Democracia, Derechos Humanos y Asuntos Globales de la Mujer.
