Koldo García, who was an advisor to the Minister of Transportation José Luis Ábalos, communicated to number two of the Ministry of the Interior, Rafael Pérez, that the vice president of Venezuela Delcy Rodríguez was going to stay in a luxury chalet in an exclusive area of Madrid, surrounded by homes of great fortunes. He, for his part, processed the details by notifying the general director of Coordination and Studies, José Antonio Rodríguez González, the commissioner known as ‘Lenin’.
This is revealed by the chain of messages that Koldo García exchanged with Pérez on the afternoon of January 19, 2020, when the Chavista vice president, who had been banned from entering the territory of the European Union, should have already been in flight. It should be remembered that the advisor turned to the Secretary of State to arrange the visit after Ábalos received authorization from the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez. She told him that she would go to Spain after three days and he responded with “good.”
At 1:44 p.m. on January 19, Pérez informed Koldo García: «I have already spoken with José Antonio, our Director of the Coordination and Studies Cabinet, to put him on prevention until they receive the communication from Foreign Affairs. In any case, send me the information you have here.
And Koldo García, after thanking him, sent him a photo of the plane in which Maduro’s number 2 was traveling with the numbering visible, the notice that “you will have to enter through authorities” (it is understood that at the airport) and the arrival time, which was scheduled for 11:00 p.m.
He added the address where he would stay. A 429 square meter home located on a corner of Velázquez Street that is available for eventual rental at a price between 1,200 and 2,200 euros per night. «The March and Florentino Pérez family live in a security zone. “It’s a chalet,” Koldo said in his message.
According to the Civil Guard, the real promoter of Delcy Rodríguez’s trip to Spain was the commission agent of the plot, Víctor de Aldama, who maintained a fluid relationship with her and outlined an entire agenda for her of her days in Spain that began with a visit to the doctor and culminated in Fitur, after passing through some of the businessmen with whom he had a relationship at the time, such as the owner of the Ciudad Real airport or the person responsible for Levantina Engineering and Construction.
Aldama’s role
He had even sent him an invitation letter as if it had been written by Ábalos, as concluded by the ‘forensics’ of the document found on Aldama’s laptop that was sent to Delcy Rodríguez in a secure messaging application that they both used.
According to the UCO, he “acted as an interlocutor between Spain and Venezuela with Ábalos and Delcy as interlocutors.” It was between both of them. Furthermore, when Ábalos told Koldo García that the president of the Government “had not objected” to the visit of the Chavista vice president, he celebrated by answering “how much I love you.”
As is known, the visit did not go as planned due to the fact that Delcy Rodríguez had a requirement that prevented her from entering community territory. As the Minister of the Interior explained last week in the Senate, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, Her number 2 notified her of this circumstance when she found out, that same day, while the vice president was flying on her way to Spain.
He then called Ábalos and warned him that Rodríguez could not set foot on Spanish soil. After spending the night in the airport transit area, he left the next morning for Doha.
