The president of the National Assembly (AN), Jorge Rodríguez, stated that currently in the extremist opposition sector “there is a knife fight”, since “a part of the opposition extremism that made political life with González Urrutia, had no idea that this was happening (asylum request to Spain)”.

“I understand, it's not speculation, it's something I heard, it's the day she leaves when she calls María Machado and others and says: I'm leaving,” she said in an interview with TeleSUR.

He confirmed that the exit process on his own initiative of former presidential candidate Edmundo González Urrutia.

This was stated by Rodríguez when referring to the fact that the Bolivarian Government kept a reservation regarding the communication signed by Edmundo González, because it considered that it was not necessary to make it public, so “from September 08 until today, we did not even insinuate that the document existed, nor did we publish it in any corresponding account of the Bolivarian Revolution or of nearby media or the State.”

On the subject, he stressed that “all the insinuations, all the approaches always came from the right”.

Rodríguez commented that for the meeting he entered through the front door and did not jump over the fence of the Spanish Embassy, as the opponent Herique Capriles did at the Cuban Embassy, in the events of April 11, 2002.

“No, we didn't knock on the door, because they invited us to a conversation and we were greeted by the ambassador, who let us in and in a room we talked for 50 minutes, in a cordial way, I repeat,” she recalled.
