Venezuela: Power extends post-election repression through increased control of NGOs

Venezuela Power extends post election repression through increased control of NGOs

In Venezuela, deputies voted this Thursday, August 15, for the law to control NGOs, which has been widely criticized in the country and by international organizations. A law that would restrict Venezuelan civic space, already under attack, and would contravene freedom of association. The post-election repression was very harsh in the streets, and this time continues at the level of the legislative branch.
