Editorial: El Mundo

• The exclusion of María Corina Machado in the discussions about the transition of Venezuela is brought into question.
• The autocrat Maduro appears to have no intention to admit his mismanagement of the government and the electoral fraud.
• Maduro is activating repressive measures against Venezuelans who challenge his regime.
• The International Community has not been successful in making Maduro hand over the electoral records.
• Spain has a special responsibility in the democratization of Venezuela but has shirked its role.
• Meeting between Lula, Petro, AMLO and Maduro may be seen as lacking credibility if the departure of the Chavez regime from power is not clearly defined.

Conclusion: Transparency, international pressure, and a clear transition plan are required to address the crisis in Venezuela. Key opposition figures should not be excluded and Maduro's dictatorship must be confronted.
