His intervention comes as the presidents of Brazil, Mexico and Colombia all called on Venezuela to release the full details of last Sunday’s election.

It has also attracted global criticism, with many governments around the world demanding the Venezuelan government release proof of the result.

The result has been recognised by Venezuelan allies China, Russia and Iran.

But, the US, European Union and other G7 countries have called on Mr Maduro’s government to release detailed voting data.

    People should question the USA every time they talk about South American countries. The same as how people question China or Russia when they talk about bordering countries. Super power will do what they can to influence other countries and historical and recent events make it clear that the USA is willing to lie and defend its lies. So people have the right to not believe the USA.

        It’s not whataboutism, it’s good to look at the history and motivations of anyone making claims like election fraud. US officials are saying it’s fake, the US has a long history of South American political interference, especially if there is even a hint of socialism.

          So you saw Maduro’s disaggregated numbers and they check out. Share them, please, everybody else wants to see them too.

            I don’t think they are staying Maduro won. Polls showed this was going to be a landslide against him. Can’t trust polls especially in a dictatorship but I think there’s something there. I know in my heart he lost.

      Sure. When it’s appropriate. But it isn’t appropriate here. There are third party organizations with no love for the US also making statements about this.

          Nothing in @Doorbook@lemmy.world’s comment implied that.

          You are a liar.

          The same as how people question China or Russia when they talk about bordering countries.

          Also…Why do you think

          Not everyone is as bad a student of history as your peers.
