Venezuelan Presidential Election Dispute
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is facing pressure to release evidence verifying the results of the presidential election amid protests and claims of victory by both him and his main challenger. The opposition has created an independent vote tabulation initiative showing their candidate, Edmundo González, in the lead. International observers and foreign governments are monitoring the situation, with some recognizing González as president-elect, while others, including Russia and Cuba, accept Maduro as the winner.
