Summary

(UE) 2021/1959 du 11/11/2021 (UE Venezuela - R (UE) 2017/2063) (FondementJuridique: 1240)

The Director Disqualification Sanction was imposed on 09/04/2025.

Member of the non-democratically elected National Assembly. Former member and illegitimately elected first Vice-President of the National Assembly elected in 2015. As a member of the National Assembly elected in 2015, he staged his election as the first Vice-President of the National Assembly on 5 Jan 2020, thereby undermining democracy and the rule of law in Venezuela. The election took place while entry of several parliamentarians to the premises of the National Assembly was blocked by military police, and without a quorum being reached. Therefore, opposition members had to organise themselves outside of the premises of the National Assembly to re-elect Juan Guaidó as its President. Shortly after the staged election of Duarte, supported by the regime’s political party (PSUV), the election of the Board of Directors of the National Assembly was welcomed by Maduro and the non-recognised National Constituent Assembly (ANC).

En tant que membre de l’Assemblée nationale élue en 2015, il a mis en scène son élection au poste de premier vice-président de l’Assemblée nationale le 5 janvier 2020, portant ainsi atteinte à la démocratie et à l’état de droit au Venezuela. L’élection s’est tenue alors que la police militaire bloquait l’accès aux locaux de l’Assemblée nationale à plusieurs députés et sans que le quorum ait été atteint. Par conséquent, les membres de l’opposition ont été contraints de s’organiser en dehors des locaux de l’Assemblée nationale pour réélire Juan Guaidó à sa présidence. Peu de temps après ce simulacre d’élection, organisé par Duarte et soutenu par le parti politique du régime (PSUV), Maduro et l’Assemblée nationale constituante (ANC) non reconnue ont approuvé l’élection de l’organe de direction de l’Assemblée nationale.

    Franklyn Duarte is a National Assembly Deputy (2021-2025) having been re-elected on 6 December 2020 in undemocratic parliamentary elections not recognised as free and fair by the UK. Duarte had previously served as a National Assembly Deputy for the period 20156-2020. As a Deputy of the 2015-2020 National Assembly Deputy, there are reasonable grounds to suspect that Franklin Duarte has been involved in the repression of democratic opposition and other actions, policies, or activities which undermine democracy in Venezuela by coming to power through fraudulent/illegitimate elections for the new National Assembly Board on 5 January 2020 and through his involvement with Operation Alacran. There are also reasonable grounds to suspect that Duarte has been acting on behalf of, or at the direction of, a person (Nicolas Maduro) who is involved in repression of political opposition and other actions, policies, or activities which undermine democracy in Venezuela, by enabling him to attack and control the democratically elected National Assembly. There are lastly reasonable grounds to suspect that Duarte is a member of, or associated with, persons who have been involved with the repression of democratic opposition and other actions, policies, and activities which undermined democracy in Venezuela due to his involvement in Operation Alacran.
