Venezuela opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner<\/u><\/a> Mar\u00eda Corina Machado said in an interview with NPR’s Weekend Edition Sunday that her country is in chaos and called for the removal of Venezuela’s authoritarian President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro.<\/p>\n

Speaking while still in hiding within Venezuela’s borders, the far-right leader decried Maduro as an illegitimate strongman who had elbowed his way into a third term<\/u><\/a> despite consistent evidence that his administration had rigged the vote.<\/p>\n

“I want to be very clear with this: Regime change was already mandated by the Venezuelan people on July 28, 2024,” Machado said during an interview with NPR’s Ayesha Rascoe on Saturday, citing last year’s controversial, closely watched election.<\/p>\n
