The United States, European Union and nine Latin American countries on Tuesday rejected an arrest warrant issued in Venezuela against opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, who claims to have rightfully won the July presidential election.
The Venezuelan public prosecutor's office said Monday that a court had approved its arrest warrant for Gonzalez Urrutia over "serious crimes" related to the opposition's insistence that President Nicolas Maduro and his allies stole the election.
