Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on Thursday rejected the U.S. government’s claim to be the electoral authority in Venezuela after some officials, including President Joe Biden, made statements about the past July 28 election.
“I completely and absolutely reject that the United States government intends to be the electoral authority in Venezuela or anywhere in the world,” the president said when asked about the issue by the media.
In addition to describing the diplomacy deployed by Washington as “imperialist and interventionist,” he questioned the exercise of power in the country, as a spokesman denied Biden’s claims that he had told the media that he would agree to repeat the electoral process to give Maduro a third term.
“President Biden claimed in an interventionist manner to express an opinion on Venezuela’s internal affairs (…) and within half an hour a US State Department spokesperson denied it. Who is in charge? The United States? Who is in charge of US foreign policy, and the president said something that was later denied by his own Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the White House itself,” he lashed out.
In the order, the Venezuelan head of state urged his American counterparts to “look at the huge problems they are facing” internally and hinted that former President and current Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, Don, would not know the election results if he did not win.
“They have a lot of problems. Let them continue to solve their problems because in Venezuela, in our homeland, Venezuelans are in charge,” he concluded.
The Venezuelan government denounces the radical opposition as aiming to overthrow Maduro through rebellion, with the support of the United States and the ignorance of Venezuelan institutions, especially the CNE.
