The regime of Nicolás Maduro accused several Latin American governments and former presidents tonight of orchestrating an "intervention operation" against Venezuela's presidential elections. This announcement comes as Venezuelans head to the polls to elect their president for the 2025-2031 term.
While ten candidates are listed on the ballot, the election is widely seen as a face-off between incumbent Nicolás Maduro, who represents the Chavismo movement that has dominated Venezuelan politics for the past 25 years, and Edmundo González Urrutia, the candidate of a coalition of opposition parties.
