The UN Secretary General highlighted that the “absence of detailed results is unprecedented” in the history of Venezuelan elections.
A panel of four electoral experts from the United Nations Organization has denounced in a report the lack of “transparency and integrity” in the management of the election results in Venezuela.
The UN General Secretariat highlighted that the “absence of detailed results is unprecedented” in the history of Venezuelan elections and the report points to a “non-compliance” with the basic and essential measures for holding “credible” elections.
“Nor did it follow the national legal and regulatory provisions, and all the established deadlines were unfulfilled“says the report, whose conclusions are aligned with the requests of international and EU leaders, who have expressed their concern about the situation.
Another hard blow for Maduro
The preliminary conclusions of the experts come as another blow for the president, Nicolás Madurowho claimed to have won the elections on July 28, despite not having published the detailed results of the vote.
After weeks of protests in the country, the Chavista leader decided to ban the social network and “break relations with WhatsApp” in the country, in an attempt to silence your opponents. “I’m going to eliminate him forever,” Maduro said. Meanwhile, thousands of Venezuelans have been arrested for protesting against the Maduro regime and more than two dozen protesters have died.
This week, the American media ‘The Wall Street Journal’ assured that the Government of Joe Biden was evaluating several options for a possible departure of Maduro of Venezuela in exchange for an amnesty if it recognizes the victory of Edmundo González Urrutia, something that, later, was denied by Washington officials.
