The situation in Venezuela remains tense following the elections held last Sunday (28). The silence of Nicolás Maduro’s government regarding promises of electoral transparency is generating growing concern, both internally and in the international community.
The international analyst of CNN Fernanda Magnotta commented on the crisis of instability that is unfolding in the South American country. “The driving forces that attract the most attention have to do with the silence of the Maduro government in fulfilling the promises that were made regarding the transparency of the election,” she said.
Magnotta highlighted that the Venezuelan government has constantly asked for more time and outsourced responsibilities, even suggesting the possibility of a coup, without, however, responding to requests for transparency as expected.
International pressure and demonstrations
Several countries in the region and around the world continue to press for clarification, which has strengthened the legitimacy of opposition groups.
Independent organizations such as the UN, the Carter Center and the OAS also expressed concern about the election, corroborating the perception that there are irregularities in the electoral process.
The streets of Venezuela have been the scene of protests by both Maduro supporters and the opposition, intensifying what Magnotta calls a “war of narratives.”
The analyst highlights the complexity of the situation, warning of the need for caution in interpreting these manifestations.
“In the Venezuelan case, there is still this layer of complexity. Even protests need to be broken down and understood as to where they come from, with what interest, with what intention,” she explained, noting that Maduro’s control of the state on all fronts can influence the perception of the government’s popularity.
The international community remains on alert, fearing a possible increase in violence and tensions in the country.
The lack of transparency in the electoral process and the opposition’s contestation of the results add further uncertainty to Venezuela’s political future, keeping the country in a state of prolonged instability.
