Venezuela's political crisis deepens as Nicolás Maduro claims victory in disputed elections while facing allegations of fraud. Thousands of protesters from poor communities are taking to the streets, demanding transparency and challenging Maduro's re-election.
International condemnation has followed, with the Organization of American States condemning the 'illegalities, vices, and bad practices' surrounding the elections. Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino López has pledged military support for Maduro, while Brazil's President Lula da Silva and US President Joe Biden are expected to discuss the crisis.
The protests and violence have highlighted the power struggle between Maduro's Chavista movement and exiled opposition leader Juan Guaidó. The crisis in Venezuela is also having an impact on Colombia, with the Venezuelanization of the country becoming a concern.
President Gustavo Petro's alliance with Maduro is facing criticism, and the future of Colombia's political landscape is being influenced by the situation in Venezuela.
