In a context of great uncertainty in the country, the American media Newsmax, close to the ideological orbit of Donald Trumphas traveled to Venezuela to gather information on the latest news and obtain their assessment of the current situation in the country.

One of the visible faces of Chavismo, has been forceful about the possibility of elections being held soon. “The only thing I can say is that there will be no elections in this immediate period“.

Furthermore, he has expressed that when it is celebrated, It will be with all the guarantees: “We will work according to a schedule that suits everyone and that guarantees, both winners and losers, that all guarantees will be safe, and will be provided by both parties.”

The brother of the current president, Delcy Rodriguezhas explained the absence of a defined date to hold elections, indicating that “what we have agreed upon and the main objective is for all the country’s institutions to recover their full functioning and the recognition of all.”

In turn, Rodríguez has denied the accusations that there were illegalities in the elections where Nicolás Maduro declared himself the winnerdespite complaints of fraud by the opposition and a large part of the international community.

He has insisted on the legality of the 2024 elections and the victory of Nicolás Maduro, despite reports from the opposition and that the opposition headed by Edmundo González, showed the minutes to the world, which pointed to an opposition victory.

“In Venezuela we have a very clear itinerary, a very clear schedule for the elections, and this is clearly established in the Venezuelan Constitution,” he assures while denies allegations of fraud.

During the interview, he also referred to the capture of Nicolás Maduro by the United States during the month of January. He assures that “The country has been incredibly mature” in the face of the “traumatic event” which, he assures, the US military operation has entailed.

Jorge Rodríguez’s statements also function as a direct response to opposition leader María Corina Machado, who assured that she considers it possible to hold “transparent” elections in the Caribbean country within a period of nine or ten months.
