The Minister of People's Power for Foreign Affairs, Yván Gil Pinto, on behalf of Venezuela, conveyed his thanks to the Republic of Türkiye for its congratulations after the electoral process on July 28.

In an official statement, published on his account on the social network X, the head of diplomatic relations in Venezuela, reported that the Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, sent “a message of congratulations to all the Venezuelan people” through a call.

Below is the full text of the statement:

Today, President Nicolás Maduro Moros received a call from the President of the Republic of Türkiye, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, in which the Turkish president sent a message of congratulations to all the Venezuelan people, after the elections last Sunday, July 28.

President Erdoğan was pleased with the reports received from the electoral observers, who attended all phases of the electoral process, and supported the efforts that have been taken before the Supreme Court of Justice, as a constitutional body that will corroborate the results announced by the National Electoral Council.

The Venezuelan president explained in detail all the actions taken by groups that are unaware of the institutionality, as well as the development of the cybernetic, fascist and criminal coup that attempts to ignore the will of the people expressed in the elections, as well as the judicial contempt of Edmundo González, who has refused to recognize the authority of the Supreme Court of Justice, as well as that of the National Electoral Council itself, recalling that he refused to sign the recognition agreement, to which he was convened by the Electoral Power, signed by the majority of the candidates before the electoral process.

The Turkish president recognized the commitment of the Bolivarian Government to the fight for the Palestinian cause and reaffirmed the ties of brotherhood and cooperation between Venezuela and Türkiye, taking the opportunity to invite President Nicolás Maduro Moros to make an official visit to his country in the shortest possible time, in order to continue advancing strategic projects between the two nations.

Caracas, August 7, 2024.
