Venezuela's top opposition leader María Corina Machado warned that a controversial bill introduced by the Maduro government could lead to her imprisonment, as its goal of fighting "fascism" could be broadly interpreted to further crack down on dissent.
"Mi teams across the country are at risk of being forcefully disappeared and i could be the target of an unjustly detention as well," said Machado in a letter sent to 18 countries in America, Europe and Africa, as well as the EU's High Representative for Foreign Affairs, Josep Borrell.
