President-elect of Paraguay to restore relations with Venezuela

Elected President of Paraguay, Santiago Peñaconfirmed this Sunday, after the results of the presidential election that brought him victory, that will restore relations with his Venezuelan counterpart Nicolás Maduroalmost four years later.

“Paraguay should strengthen its relations with Venezuela, (even if) it recognizes the government does not mean that we are the voice of principles and values“, – said TVaccording to the newspaper Last minute.

“We believe that democracy should be enriched by broad electoral processes and Protection of human rights. Our voice will always be the voice of support for the Venezuelan people,” he added.

This decision is added to the decision of other countries that in recent months have planned to restore bilateral relations, as in the case of Spain, restoring the figure of the Ambassador of Caracas in December; or from Colombia and Brazil since they took office Gustavo Petro and Luis Inacio Lula da Silvarespectively.
