The Brazilian president said he still does not recognize Maduro as the winner of the vote and that his government must publish voting tallies that have not been released
Brazil ian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva attends the opening session of the forum titled A Project for Brazil , focused on energy transition and South American integration, at the National Confederation of Industry headquarters in Brasilia, Brazil , on Aug. 14. Brazil ian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on Thursday suggested Venezuela n leader Nicolas Maduro could call a new election involving international observers as a potential solution for the political crisis in the country.
“If has common sense, he could put it to the people, perhaps calling new elections with a non-partisan electoral committee,” Lula said in a radio interview. Lula’s top foreign policy adviser Celso Amorim, speaking to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Brazil had not formally proposed a new election in Venezuela.Conservative senators at the hearing criticized the Lula administration for favouring Maduro with its soft stance, and asked what Brazil was doing for jailed opposition leaders.
Venezuela’s electoral authority proclaimed Maduro the winner of the July election with 51% of the vote, although it has yet to divulge the voting tallies.
