  5. Venezuela's Supreme Court Validates Maduro's Election Victory Amid Widespread Criticism

Venezuela's Supreme Court Validates Maduro's Election Victory Amid Widespread Criticism

ai generated text

Venezuela's Supreme Court has validated President Nicolas Maduro's victory in the July 28 presidential election, rejecting claims of voter fraud and forged voting tallies. The court's ruling is the latest attempt to quell protests and international criticism that erupted after the contested election. The opposition has accused Maduro of trying to steal the election, and countries such as Brazil and Colombia have refused to recognize his victory. The Supreme Court's decision is unlikely to be investigated, despite concerns about the court's independence and impartiality. The ruling has been met with skepticism by the opposition, which has accused the government of voter fraud and has called for an audit of the election results.

  1. Caryslia Rodriguez
    National Election Commission
    1. We validate the results where Nicolás Maduro Moros was elected.
    2. Nothing will stop us in our sacred mission [of upholding the law].
    3. This chamber declares on the basis of the expertise carried out, and based on the report prepared by national and international experts, the unobjectionable validity of the electoral material surveyed and validates the results of the presidential election.
  2. Andrés Izarra
    Vente Venezuela
    1. No country will accept this judgment. And nor will the Venezuelan people.
  3. CL
    Gabriel Boric
    Frente Amplio
    1. Chile does not recognise this false, auto-proclaimed triumph of Maduro and co.
  4. UY
    Luis Lacalle Pou
    Partido Nacional
    1. We must not remain silent or cease in defence of the Venezuelan cause.
    2. The Maduro regime confirms what the international community has been denouncing: fraud.
  5. VE
    María Corina Machado
    Unitary Platform coalition
    1. There are people who say that they [the Chavistas] are working to show some records.
    2. The regime has always treated public employees in a despotic way: it forces you to wear red [...] it pressures you, it threatens you, it checks your phone. That is aberrant, it is humiliating. You are trying to terrorize public employees. You are the majority, and the hierarchs of the regime, are a minority. You also want this change, as much as I do.
    3. I hope they do it. It would be public proof of fraud. I am waiting for them: publish your records.
  6. VE
    Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia
    Unitary Platform coalition
    1. The country and the world know your bias and, therefore, your inability to resolve the conflict; your decision will only aggravate the crisis.
    2. The Electoral Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice is not authorized under any circumstances to exercise the functions it is exercising.
    3. The people's decision cannot be ignored by any person, no matter what position of power they hold, nor by any organ of public power, and much less by those who seek to cling to power.
    4. The organs of the state emanate from popular sovereignty and are subject to it. They shall not usurp the truth.
  7. VE
    Gonzalo Himiob
    Foro Penal
    1. The government is sending them a message: 'If you didn't vote for us, you are now an enemy – and we can do whatever we want to our enemies,'
  8. US
    Geoff Ramsey
    Atlantic Council
    1. Somehow I don't think saying 'we won, just trust us' is going to fix Maduro's problem.
