The Venezuelan regime

returns to the charge against the deputy Juan Guaidó,

considered interim president of the country by fifty countries around the world.

The comptroller general of Venezuela, Elvis Amoroso, now publicly accused the opposition leader of hiding a fortune of 2 billion euros in accounts in banks in Europe and a 24-meter yacht in the United States.

The charges may

constitute the pretext to carry out the arrest of the leader,

analysts suspect.

The Chavista dictatorship has been confronting Guaidó, who has just lost control of Congress in legislative elections considered fraudulent for his position.

The official, who also serves as president of a Republican Moral Council, did not give evidence of his accusations.

The news was known shortly after it became known that President-elect Joe Biden specially invited Guaidó's ambassador to the US, Carlos Vecchio, to the inauguration ceremony in Washington, a gesture considered as a sign towards the dictatorship.

"Mr. Juan Guaidó will have to say where he got the 2,000 million euros that he has deposited in European accounts or the 77-foot (24-meter) yacht that he has stopped there in Fort Lauderdale, in Florida (United States), where for Senator Marco Rubio is right, "said Amoroso in statements collected by the newspaper

Últimas Noticias.

"That they declare, that they tell and declare to the people of Venezuela how they have obtained the money. How does Mr. (Julio) Borges live in a mansion in Bogotá. How does he do? All these things are important to know," he pointed out in a wheel press.

Marco Rubio is a North American legislator, who has participated in the group set up by outgoing President Donald Trump to try to force a change of power in Venezuela.

Julio Borges, in turn, is a Venezuelan opposition legislator who had to go into exile, like many others of his colleagues, for the regime's persecution against him.


Amoroso has urged the outgoing deputies of the National Assembly that concluded on December 5 to

make their affidavit of assets, a

mandatory procedure for parliamentarians after the cessation of their functions. 

However,

the opposition has extended, on its own initiative, the mandate of the National Assembly

elected in 2015 with a majority of the dissent, considering the legislative elections of December 6 fraudulent, in which the ruling party prevailed with a large majority, although with a small majority. participation due to the opposition's call for abstention.

And also because of the ban against the main parties critical of the regime.

Amoroso also announced that in the coming days its officials will be installed in the National Assembly in order to "put the magnifying glass" into the administrative processes of the outgoing management.

"Failure to carry out his termination of duties will generate an administrative procedure."
