CARACAS, Jan 27 (NNN-TELESUR) — Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro invited the European Union to observe the governor’s elections in 2021.
During a meeting with the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), the president reiterated that all international organizations are invited to witness Venezuelan democracy.
Maduro foresees a victory of his party PSUV after progressive forces regained the parliament’s majority from the opposition on Dec 6, 2020.
On Jan 6, 2021, the European Union announced that the block no longer recognizes opposition politician Juan Guaido as Venezuelan’s interim president following the parliament’s instauration.
Last year, the international observers who monitored the parliamentary elections urged the European Union, Canada, and the U.S. to recognize the democratic results.
On the other hand, Venezuelan authorities expect the visit of a commission from the United Nations to study the impact of the U.S. blockade on the South American nation. — NNN-TELESUR
