In the middle of the biggest political, economic and social crisis that Venezuela is going through, more than 20 million Venezuelans are called to the polls this Sunday to decide, among other issues, who will be their president for the next six years among the four candidates who attend . And it is that the opposition platform Mesa de la Unidad Democrática (MUD) decided not to participate and has called for abstention. The opposition and the part of the international community, such as the US, the European Parliament and several Latin American countries have already announced that they will not recognize the results that come out of the polls because they say that "the necessary democratic guarantees have not existed". However, the current president, Nicolás Maduro, has assured that they will be "a lesson in democracy".
