  • Repression has escalated under Chavez's regime, with Spanish Venezuelan activist Rocío San Miguel being jailed.
  • A strong response from the international community, especially Spain, is needed.
  • The Sánchez government must demand the immediate release of San Miguel.
  • Nicolás Maduro has taken U.S. actions as a license to increase his autocratic tendencies.
  • Chavismo has prevented María Corina Machado from participating in the presidential elections.
  • Any criticism has been stifled, even from the UN, with 13 officials being expelled.

Conclusion: The escalating repression from Chavismo and Maduro's autocratic drift is creating an unsustainable situation in Venezuela.
