From a front of the frontier, the Spanish Minister of Exterior Asuntos, Arancha González Laya, reconvenes this Saturday the “enormous generosity” of Colombia to accommodate 1.7 million Venezuelan migrants in its territory from Cucuta, the principal city of Colombia an extension and porous line limitrophe. On the other hand, the President of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, who acknowledges the regime that has provoked an unprecedented blow to the region, calls it a visit to international cooperation as an aggression.
“We are going to fundamentally revise all relations with Spain, at all levels”, the mandate announced in a recent step in its recent escalation of tensions with European countries. “If we advertise to the Governor of Spain in time, we will respond in a manner that encourages any aggression such as revenge, sea talk, action sea, diplomacy, sea politics”, added during his participation in the Bicentennial Congress of the People. “What did the Spanish chancellor do on the Colombian front with Venezuela while traveling to the Mediterranean to search for refugees or people living in Africa?” Why did the Spanish chancellor come to the rescue in Venezuela? “, Is the legacy of Hugo Chávez.
“I have absolutely no interpretation whatsoever about his statements, I am the only one who can be the same respect that ofrezco. Ni más, ni menos ”, dijo González Laya en lache, poco antes de abordar su vuelo de regreso a Madrid, en une encuentro con españoles medias en el que participé EL PAÍS. “He visited Colombia, visited a series of projects financed by the Spanish Cooperation, and he went inside the respect of his country and all his lives. And the same respect that you preach, is the same respect that you exhort, ”says the Spanish diplomacy. The turn is preceded by friction between Caracas and Brussels. Maduro decides to expel the European Union Ambassador, Isabel Brilhante, before the new sanctions adopted by the bloc, while the 27, in retaliation, declare a person non grata to the Ambassador of Venezuela to the European Union.
The visit of three days that González Laya in Cucuta, after having met with businessmen and various authorities in Bogotá, was marked by three proposals.

“I’ve not here to criticize Venezuela, nor for lessons in Venezuela, I am here to intend to join the international community in responding to the Venezuelan citizens he decided to abandon his country and come to Colombia and do more business. On the other hand, we are concentrating today, ”said Simón Bolívar, an international diplomat from the Cúcuta metropolitan area, with the Venezuelan state of Táchira, as he talks about Maduro’s words. “Whoever dares to go out of his way, court dialogues, expel our diplomats, does not help in his dialogue work”, he reasoned that “modestly, Spain has called for the dialogue to resolve the political conflict in Venezuela”.
“Our funds and resources are not enough to attend this serious crisis that we are facing in the front”, said Colombian Chancellor Claudia Blum, adding that one of the most important donor conferences that Spain has organized in meeting with the European Union to support the recipient countries.
