Trump Recognizes Edmundo González as Venezuela's President-Elect, Supports Machado Amid Protests
Jan 9, 2025, 10:55 PM
Donald Trump, the president-elect of the United States, has recognized Edmundo González Urrutia as the president-elect of Venezuela, following the country's presidential elections on July 28. Trump's statement on Truth Social emphasized the peaceful expression of the Venezuelan people's will by González and opposition leader María Corina Machado, who he described as 'freedom fighters.' This recognition comes amidst widespread protests against the Maduro regime, with Trump asserting that these leaders 'must stay safe and alive.' Additionally, Canada has also recognized González as the winner of the Venezuelan elections, with Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly reiterating support for the opposition. The situation in Venezuela remains tense as both González and current President Nicolás Maduro have claimed victory in the elections and intend to assume the presidency on January 10.
