World leaders have called on Venezuela to release the full details of the election, after the country’s opposition published voting tallies showing its candidate, Edmundo González, won by a wide margin.
Last Sunday, the electoral council, which is government-controlled, announced President Maduro had won the election for a third term.
But this was immediately disputed by the opposition who said, with access to the majority of receipts from electronic voting machines around the country, it was false.
President Maduro has previously accused foreign governments of interfering in the election, and has strongly denied electoral fraud.

Please report about Bangladesh. The situation in Bangladesh is very dire. Many people are being killed around the quota movement. Please save our Bangladesh. Bangladesh
I'm brazilian and after watching our local news channel I came here to see what USA's midia had to say, it is incredible how our midia is selling the exact SAME speech, pretending to care about Venezuela's future.
Sick of the BBC and the other US media constantly berating others. We can see how corrupt the western voting system is and how money controls both ruling parties. Investigate and clean your own house. You have no business elsewhere.
‘The School of the Americas’ at it again.
We request your cooperation so that there is no problem in our network in Bangladesh at the moment.
Cuban journalist Nadia Diaz reveals unknown details of the biography of the Venezuelan presidential candidate from the far-right opposition, Edmundo González, who just lost the elections.
It turns out that in the early 80s, he was the second adviser of the Venezuelan embassy in El Salvador, when the civil war was going on there. And together with Ambassador Leopoldo Castillo, known by the nickname El Mata Curas (“The Priest Killer”), he worked on the implementation of the “Condor Plan”, which consisted of eliminating leftist oppositionists throughout the region. The main agents of death in El Salvador were the Venezuelan Ambassador Castillo and his adviser Edmundo González. In declassified CIA documents released in February 2009, Castillo was named as one of the intelligence officials who coordinated, financed, and ordered Operation Centaur, a plan by the Salvadoran army and death squads to physically eliminate members of religious communities seeking a negotiated solution to the conflict. During the years that Castillo and González were in charge of the embassy, the Salvadoran army and death squads killed 13,194 civilians, including Archbishop Oscar Arnulfo Romero, four Maryknoll nuns, and priests Rafael Palacios, Alirio Macías, Francisco Cosme, Jesús Cáceres, and Manuel Reyes. And no longer a diplomat, he was still working as an adviser to the intelligence services when, on November 16, 1989, six Jesuits and two of their female employees were killed by assassins hired by the army.
Don't forget the uk's votes aswell plz
You mean unrest caused by Western NGO's
They won't be going the 24hr.
Chess Mate to Maduro thats it no more Suffering to Venezuelans People that is Enough for this Dictator put Him in yield with no parole
Maduro is a killer now
According to the comments on here it's every other countries fault that Venezuela is such a disaster of a country.
Venezuela, a country with the biggest oil reserves is broke, starving, with hyper inflation. This is what happens when crazy incompetent dictators like Chaves and Maduro head a country.
Same goes for Argentina that is headed by a guy that talks to dead Dogs for advice.
Maduro has lost.He needs to go.
I concur that it would be interesting to see the real independent electorial voting paper-work
Ah the wonderful world of Socialism .
Seen now in Venezuela at its finest !
Socialists strike again.
