Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is escalating his rhetoric as the country's presidential elections get closer, now warning society risks a "fratricidal civil war" and a "bloodbath" if his party doesn't win.
"If you don't want Venezuela to fall into a bloodbath, into a fratricidal civil war because of fascists, we need to guarantee the largest electoral victory in the history of our people," Maduro said during a speech in Caracas.
