Roberto Marrero,
Juan Guaidó's
right hand man
and a former political prisoner, is currently traveling to
Mexico City
on a plane from the Venezuelan airline
Conviasa.
This puts an end to the
impasse
opened by the Bolivarian government, which last Friday prevented its trip to Madrid on the last humanitarian flight ordered by the Embassy of Spain.
The head of the president's office in charge was released last month thanks to the agreements established between
Nicolás Maduro
and the opposition leader
Henrique Capriles,
who had the support of the
European Union.
Marrero travels with a Mexican diplomat as a protection measure, after diplomatic contacts maintained by the Spanish and Mexican embassies.
Since he was forced by the Maduro government to get off the
special
charter
of the
Plus Ultra
company
when the rest of the passengers, 288, were waiting for takeoff, Marrero has had the backing of Spanish diplomacy.
A video of that moment went viral over the weekend.
"Who has compassion on my family, who have not seen me for a year and a half?" Marrero explained at the time to a group of passengers.
His claim, as he explained then, is to travel to
Miami,
where his family is.
The humanitarian flight to
Spain
was only the first leg of his trip.
By not undergoing precautionary measures, nothing prevented Marrero, 51, from leaving his country.
This was theoretically guaranteed by the pardon decreed by Maduro to 50 political prisoners, thanks to which he recovered his citizen rights, including that of traveling abroad.
Marrero was arrested on the night of March 21 of last year and admitted to
Helicoide, the
sinister headquarters of
the Bolivarian Intelligence Service (Sebin).
The Chavista government accused him of terrorism.
