In a statement, Macron scheduled Friday’s meeting at the Elysee Palace in the US and EU actions in support of the opposition deputy, even though «his people condemned Macron on January 5 in the National Assembly,» by not re-electing him at the head of that parliamentary body.
«Macron welcomed Guaido as if he were a head of State, even though he is increasingly weakening in the international and domestic scene, and representing the worst of the Latin American extreme right,» he said.
According to the PCF, Macron did not take into consideration issues linked to national sovereignty.
«Emmanuel Macron takes another step in his real idea of democracy and his view regarding France’s role at the international level, in addition to offering a very unfortunate and disturbing image of the presidential function,» he said.
The French communists urged Macron to promote a dialogue with the Venezuelan government and respect for the sovereignty of the Venezuelan people, instead of adding fuel to the fire.
Our diplomacy should foster dialogue and respect for the sovereignty of all Latin American peoples facing US imperialism.
