US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has acknowledged Venezuelan opposition candidate Edmundo González Urrutia as the president-elect of the country. This recognition comes after the disputed 28 July election, in which Nicolás Maduro claimed victory. The US has expressed doubt regarding Maduro's claims, suggesting that González Urrutia garnered more votes in the election.

    1. The Venezuelan people spoke resoundingly on July 28 and made Edmundo Gonzalez the president-elect. Democracy demands respect for the will of the voters.
    1. The Venezuelan people overwhelmingly and unequivocally expressed their desire for democratic change—the publicly available voting tally sheets say so.
    2. We deeply appreciate the recognition of the sovereign will of all Venezuelans. This gesture honors our people's desire for change and the civic feat that we carried out together on July 28.
    1. In his first government … Trump wasn't good to us [but] this is a new start.
    2. Your slogan is 'Make America Great Again'. And, paraphrasing your slogan, I'd say that our slogan is to make the united Venezuela, Latin America and the Caribbean great.
