Latin American nation falling into total chaos.
A report by GatewayHispanic.com breaks down how Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is arresting his political opposition after the nation’s recent election results being questioned have led to skirmishes that could turn into an all-out civil war.
The article explains Maduro’s campaign chief and President of the National Assembly Jorge Rodríguez has demanded the imprisonment of Venezuelan opposition leaders Edmundo González Urrutia and María Corina Machado.
Rodríguez claimed the pair of politicians wish to create “unease, instability, suffering, dismissal, theft, and death” in Venezuela, and compared them to Argentina’s Javier Milei.
