Venezuelas opposition calls for protests on the eve of Maduros

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado on Sunday called on people to participate in a demonstration on January 9 to oppose the sitting left-wing president Nicolás Maduro. At that time, it is the eve of Maduro’s inauguration.

– This day will go down in history as the day Venezuela said: “Enough!”, Machado said in a video message published on the X service.

Machado has been in hiding since the disputed July 28 presidential election, saying he fears for his life.

Maduro was declared the winner of the presidential election, but the election result has been widely doubted.
