AI Summary:
Nicolas Maduro has been sworn in for a third six-year term after a contentious election that saw his opponent Edmundo Gonzalez claim voter fraud and declare victory. In 2019, the US and several of its allies in the Western Hemisphere recognised Guaido as the legitimate president of Venezuela. The United States has recognised Gonzalez as the winner of the July vote. Nearly 7.7 million people have fled the country, some due to allegations of political repression, others due to the economic instability. The country’s electoral authorities have sided with Maduro, though they have not released the usual breakdown of results from Venezuela’s polling stations. Several hundred demonstrators joined Machado on Thursday, though the crowds were noticeably smaller than in the post-election protests. Maduro’s government accused the opposition of conspiring with foreign forces to overthrow the president. Gonzalez, a former diplomat, visited the US earlier this week and met with President Joe Biden.
