Protesters demonstrate against the official election results declaring President Nicolas Maduro won reelection in the Catia neighbourhood of Caracas, Venezuela, July 29, 2024, the day after the vote
VENEZUELAN President Nicolas Maduro has slammed an attempted coup by his country’s US-backed far right after he won re-election on Sunday.
Mr Maduro hit out at the right-wing opposition, which is refusing to recognise the result despite thousands of independent monitors certifying the poll as free and fair.
The refusal of the opposition to accept Mr Maduro’s victory has fuelled violence, with election observers also coming under attack.
