Venezuelan VP Delcy Rodriguez slams 'international hysteria' over election results: Video
Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodriguez has lashed out at what she described as "international hysteria" surrounding the country’s election results.
Speaking in a televised address, Rodriguez questioned the intense scrutiny from the international community, particularly from Washington and allied governments, over the election records.
"What’s in these much-talked-about records that have caused such hysteria? They could even make a Netflix series: 'The Records in Venezuela: Collective Hysteria,'" Rodriguez remarked, mocking the global attention.
She went on to apologise to the French ambassador, jesting that the controversy over the records has even "overshadowed the Olympics in France."
Rodriguez’s comments come amid widespread criticism and scepticism from foreign governments regarding the transparency and legitimacy of Venezuela’s recent electoral process.
