Venezuela Opposition Confirms Maria Corina Machado as Leader Amid Political Transition TalksPreviousNext

Venezuela's opposition coalition, the Unitary Democratic Platform (PUD), has confirmed Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Corina Machado as its leader amid ongoing political transition talks following the US capture of former President Nicolas Maduro. Machado, currently exiled in Panama, advocates for democratic reforms, free elections, and the release of political prisoners. The opposition supports Edmundo Gonzalez as the rightful 2024 election winner, challenging Maduro's declared victory and calling for a peaceful transition to democracy.
