Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro Seized Third Term Amid Disputed Election Results and International Outcry

ai generated text

Nicolas Maduro was sworn in for a third six-year term as Venezuela's president, despite widespread opposition protests and allegations of election rigging. His inauguration took place in the National Assembly following the July 28 election. Maduro promised a term of "peace, prosperity, equality, and new democracy," but critics accused him of repression, citing detentions of opposition leaders and journalists, including Maria Corina Machado and photojournalist Jesus Medina Ezaine. Protests erupted across Venezuela, with international criticism, including from Colombia, condemning the harassment of opposition figures.

    1. The UK will not stand by as Maduro continues to oppress, undermine democracy, and commit appalling human rights violations.

    1. Today, Nicolás Maduro held an illegitimate presidential inauguration in Venezuela in a desperate attempt to seize power.

    1. Soon, very soon, no matter what they do, we will return to Venezuela and put an end to this tragedy … I promise that we will not fail you.
    2. Maduro has violated the constitution and the sovereign will of the ​Venezuelans … He has executed a coup d'état and crowned himself dictator. The people aren't with him and no government considered democratic is with him – only the dictators of Cuba, [the Democratic Republic of the] Congo and Nicaragua.

    María Corina Machado
    Unitary Platform coalition
    1. Maduro is not going to leave on his own, we must make him leave with the strength of a population that never gives up.
    2. Today Maduro didn't put the sash on his chest. He put a shackle on his ankle, which will tighten every day.
    3. Edmundo will come to Venezuela to be sworn in as Venezuela's president at the right time when the conditions are suitable.
  6. VE
    Nicolás Maduro
    United Socialist Party of Venezuela
    1. I swear on history, on my life, and I will fulfil [my mandate].
    2. May this new presidential term be a period of peace, of prosperity, of equality and the new democracy.
    3. We are immortal. We are invincible. We are indestructible.
    4. Maduro's shameless actions demonstrate that democracy and the rule of law cannot be taken for granted. We will not tolerate the erosion of the democratic process or the repression of citizens seeking to express their rights.

    Human Rights Watch
    1. If they see that possibility challenged in any way, for example through [opposition-led] demonstrations, they are going to repress them brutally.
    2. The regime is going to do everything they can to ensure that Maduro can be re-inaugurated and that he can continue with his administration.

    PAX sapiens
    1. The risk that we run is being ineffective in pursuing our interests ... the risk that we run is empowering our adversaries.
    2. U.S. engagement in that conflict has not led to stability.
