Months after upholding the victory of President Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela is back in the news as, the country's former surprise presidential candidate Enrique Marquez, continues to reject the former as president.
Speaking to reporters in Caracas on Monday, October 14, Enrique disputed the Supreme Court ruling which maintained Maduro as the rightful winner of the July 28 presidential elections.
"In the company of our lawyers, we will go to court to submit this appeal, which aims to clarify several unclear points in the ruling," he said.
The presidential election held on July 28, 2024, has been mired in controversy from the outset. The National Electoral Council, which is said to be heavily influenced by Maduro loyalists, declared the latter the winner shortly after the polls closed.
However, the opposition, led by Edmundo González, collected tally sheets from 80% of the nation's electronic voting machines and posted them online, showing that González had won by a significant margin.
However, on Wednesday, September 18, González stated that he was forced into signing a letter that acknowledged his defeat in the July presidential election, which electoral authorities assert was won by President Nicolás Maduro.
