Countries that have recognised 'Maduro’s win' in Venezuela
The recent Venezuelan presidential election has sparked international controversy, with different countries taking opposing stances on the legitimacy of Nicolás Maduro's claimed victory.
Countries such as China and Russia have recognised Maduro's win, have extended their congratulatory messages and reaffirmed their support. Bolivia, Cuba, Honduras, Nicaragua, North Korea, and Syria have also acknowledged Maduro's victory, congratulating him on securing a third term.
On the contrary, several nations have rejected the official results. Argentina, Ecuador, Uruguay, Costa Rica, the United States, and Peru have recognised opposition candidate Edmundo González Urrutia as the legitimate president-elect.
Additionally, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico have not outrightly rejected the results but have called for an impartial verification process.
Meanwhile, opposition leaders, including María Corina Machado, maintain that González Urrutia will assume the presidency in January 2025, challenging Maduro's claim to the office.
