The European Union's top diplomat and a top Venezuelan election official have stated that Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has not provided the necessary public evidence to prove he won the elections held in July. Despite Maduro's claims of victory, all available evidence suggests he lost. Opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzalez and his supporters assert they won the election with 70% of the vote and claim to have receipts to support their victory. The international community, including democracies worldwide, is calling for Maduro to present evidence of his reelection.
