Gavin Grey: Europe correspondent on Venezuelan opposition leader Edmundo Gonzales' arrival in Spain after disputing its elections

Early Edition with Ryan Bridge

Venezuelan opposition leader Edmundo Gonzales has arrived in Spain after fleeing the country after its presidential election.

Gonzales had an arrest warrant issued after he disputed July’s election, which was won by incumbent Nicolas Maduro.

The US, EU and Latin American countries have also questioned the election results after Venezuela refused to publish official election data to prove the result.

Europe correspondent Gavin Grey told Ryan Bridge he arrived on a Spanish Royal Air Force plane near Madrid, where he’ll be granted political asylum after having stayed at its embassy in Caracas.
