- 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.
