Falcón and Bertucci will meet on Wednesday to evaluate an alliance against Maduro

The announcement of the meeting was made after the candidate Luis Alejandro Ratti also declined his participation in the elections to support Falcón.

The opposition candidates Henri Falcón and Javier Bertucci will meet today, Wednesday, to evaluate an alliance that allows a unique candidacy against the Venezuelan president and candidate for re-election, Nicolás Maduro.

The announcement of the meeting was made after the candidate Luis Alejandro Ratti declined his participation in the elections to support Falcón, the favorite competitor to defeat Maduro, which reduced the candidates to the Presidency of Venezuela to four.

The businessman, who said he had submitted his candidacy because he considered it necessary, explained in a press conference that he declined and decided to support Falcón for "national unity" and to "break" with the "attempted division of the government."

Falcon accompanied Ratti in his public announcement and asked, not only Bertucci but also engineer Reinaldo Quijada, to join his proposal in order to become the only candidate to measure himself against the current president.

The main opposition alliance Mesa de la Unidad Democrática (MUD), which groups together most of the opposition parties and of which Falcón was a member, decided at the beginning of the year not to participate or endorse the candidacy of any of the opposition leaders in the presidential elections, considering that the process will be "fraudulent".

As promoters of abstentionism have been, along with Maduro, the biggest detractors of the Falcon campaign, who have been asked again and again to withdraw to not give legitimacy to a process in which they are convinced that Maduro will make "fraud" "

Falcon and Bertucci are the opposition candidates with the most popular support, and some polls suggest that the intention of participation of both would give an opportunity of victory to antichavism.
