MIAMI - In an astonishing move, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro claimed that Colombian pop sensation Karol G sent him a song for his political campaign. During a recent rally in Caracas, he even boasted about learning the dance, humorously suggesting he should be called "Nico G."
Maduro's words inserted a twist into the government's campaign for the July 28th election, in which all polls show him trailing opposition candidate Edmundo González by double digits. If the election results are respected (a big if, as the government has resorted to all kinds of tactics to stay in power) this could mark the end of Chavismo at the helm of Venezuela after more than 20 years.
