Venezuela's President Nicolás Maduro was declared the winner of the presidential election on Sunday, although the opposition is also claiming victory.
Venezuela's President Nicolás Maduro is widely believed to have fraudulently won Sunday's election, ensuring him another 6-year term. Numerous regional governments cast doubt on the official vote tally, which showed Maduro with 51.2% of the vote, with 80% of polling stations reporting. The opposition contends that the results are not accurate, and claims that it won the election with 70% of the vote.
Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., condemned the result and criticized the policies of the Biden administration. 'Another foreign policy fiasco from the Biden-Harris team,' he wrote on X. 'They gave Maduro relief from Trump oil sanctions and released his top money launderer & his two convicted drug dealer nephews in exchange for a 'promise' to hold fair elections monitored by neutral international observers.
