"The Venezuelan people deserve more," wrote AS/COA's Susan Segal in La Nacion, El Tiempo, and other outlets after the country's 2024 vote.
"Regional leaders need to stand up and do more to really insist that democracy be returned to Venezuela," says AS/COA's vice president.
Government-controlled electoral authorities claim Maduro won, while the opposition rejected the official count.
Nicolás Maduro's claim to victory was "100% predictable," says AS/COA's Eric Farnsworth to NPR.
AS/COA’s vice president explains that, despite the Maduro regime’s electoral fraud, Venezuelan voters turned out to "take a risk for democracy."
"We left because of this government and yet we find ourselves unable to express our frustration," said AS/COA's Guillermo Zubillaga to The Washington Post.
