Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado warned that the country risks slipping into disorder if authorities fail to set a clear date for presidential elections, arguing that an organized electoral process is essential to maintaining stability after months of political upheaval.
"There is a real risk: if people feel that the path is being closed off, they may start pushing in an unorganized way that could turn anarchic. An electoral timetable with a fixed date is the guarantee of peace and stability," Machado said in an interview with Spain's es Radio, framing the absence of a timeline as a potential trigger for uncontrolled social pressure.
