His intervention comes as the presidents of Brazil, Mexico and Colombia all called on Venezuela to release the full details of last Sunday’s election.
…
It has also attracted global criticism, with many governments around the world demanding the Venezuelan government release proof of the result.
The result has been recognised by Venezuelan allies China, Russia and Iran.
But, the US, European Union and other G7 countries have called on Mr Maduro’s government to release detailed voting data.
What about the election in Pakistan? That was clearly rigged yet the US never made a it a problem.
If Maduro had acted like a good suckup dictator, all of this would be declared “internal matter of Venzuela” and Blinken would have moved on lol.
But no, he had to refuse the US’s foreign demands like he has sovereignty or something. Now we actually have to coup him for real this time, and make it look like we upgraded the democracy while doing it.

But seriously rip Imran Khan. Pakistan had one big chance to save itself and it took the army like 5 seconds and a tiny IMF loan from the USA to burn it all down.
dunno, don’t speak Urdu, not close to me, don’t know anyone from there, what do observers say? It’s just really annoying for Latin Americans to see “gringos” immediately forming an opinion on something they have no idea about and making it about themselves, either to meddle or to dismiss. Listen to other countries than the US and what they are saying, preferably in the local language.
China? Russia? Iran? Where’s your office?
Did the US remove sanctions on Pakistan on condition that they run fair elections? I ask because I don’t know. What I know is that they did so with Venezuela, and yet maduro didn’t run free elections.
No the US backed a coup in Pakistan against Imrah Khan.
Imran Khan did not want to get involved in the Russia-Ukraine war and the US wanted a Pakistani president who picked their side.
Then why would the US be as interested in the fairness of the election.
The fairness of the venezuelan one was literally a condition of the deal.
Which deal?
The US lifted sanctions in exchange of Venezuela having fair elections. That was the deal.
