Nicolas Maduro uses the 5 powers of the state to carry out a coup d'état.
1- The Executive uses the Armed Forces to ignore the citizen vote. 2- The Legislative creates laws that facilitate the executive's plan. 3- The electoral branch proclaims Nicolás Maduro without records, no evidence. 4- The Citizen works at the service of Nicolás Maduro. 5- The Judicial Branch supports the Coup.
On August 22, 2024, the TSJ (Supreme Court of Justice) consummated the coup d'état. This is not a simple electoral fraud, and from now on these publications should be called by their real name. In reality, this was always a coup d'état, but now the 5 public powers are co-participants in it: Executive, Legislative, Electoral, Citizen and now the Judicial. We are under the yoke of a group with all the power.
Unsurprisingly, Maduro's TSJ decides that it "validates the results of the elections of July 28, 2024 and certifies Nicolás Maduro as the winner."
The CNE and the TSJ announce the decision without presenting even a single document certifying this.
• Panamanian President asks "not to stop making efforts so that Venezuela recovers its freedom and democracy": "Maduro is increasingly isolated."
The Chilean government repudiates the ruling of the Chavista Supreme Court:
"Today the TSJ of Venezuela finishes consolidating the fraud. The Maduro regime obviously welcomes his sentence with enthusiasm, which will be marked by infamy. There is no doubt that we are facing a dictatorship that falsifies elections, represses those who think differently and is indifferent to the largest exile in the world only comparable to that of Syria as a result of a war.
I have seen in the eyes of thousands of Venezuelans who demand democracy in their homeland and who today receive a new slam of the door. Chile does not recognize this false self-proclaimed triumph of Maduro and company.
Surely because of our position we will receive (as usual) insults from their authorities. They do not know that as Huidobro said "the adjective when it does not give life, it kills", and they have murdered the word democracy." • President of Uruguay https://m.stacker.news/47762 "The Maduro regime confirms what the international community has been denouncing: fraud. A dictatorship that closes all doors to an institutional and democratic life for its people. We must not remain silent or cease in defense of the Venezuelan cause." • President of Paraguay https://m.stacker.news/47764 'We deeply regret the decision of the Venezuelan government to move forward with the ratification of election results that do not reflect the will of the Venezuelan people. It is unacceptable to attempt to validate winners without an exhaustive and independent review of the votes." • The Guatemalan government repudiates the ruling of the Chavista Court and insists that it does not recognize Nicolás Maduro's fraud. https://m.stacker.news/47766 "The crisis in Venezuela is indisputable, and from Guatemala we have already said that its recent elections are only a demonstration of it: the Maduro regime is not democratic and we do not recognize its fraud.
The people of our entire continent must demand a peaceful solution that guarantees the will of the people and recovers the country for all Venezuelans.
Our solidarity with the brother people of Venezuela, who fight for their freedom and democracy." • President of Ecuador: https://m.stacker.news/47769 "With indignation, but without surprise, we received the news of the Supreme Court of Venezuela's ruling, lacking impartiality, independence and credibility, with which they intend to consolidate the electoral fraud of Nicolás Maduro.
The totalitarian regime has ignored all the calls of the international community for the verification of the records and the enabling of a transition process towards democracy. It has not presented a single piece of evidence of its invalid electoral victory, which is unknown to the vast majority of democratic countries.
In Ecuador, we see daily the sacrifice of thousands of Venezuelans who fight for their survival and dream of returning to their beloved homeland. For them, for the hundreds of unjustly detained, for those persecuted, for the families who long to recover their freedom, their democracy and their beloved Venezuela, we must continue to support the struggle of Maria Corina, Edmundo González and an entire people, whose will was expressed on June 28 and must be supported by the democratic world.

His political party • https://m.stacker.news/47775 • Communication from the NGO PROVEA: "Nicolás Maduro breaks historic figures of repression in Venezuela, surpassing dictatorships such as Pinochet's in Chile.
We have registered an accelerated increase in serious human rights violations committed after the June 28 elections:
More than 2,400 people arbitrarily detained in 16 days, 150 arrests per day, far exceeding the records of the protests of 2014, 2017 and 2019; twice as many detainees-disappeared daily in Chile during the months of September and December 1973, after the coup d'état of Augusto Pinochet.
The disproportionate use of force and coordination between security forces and paramilitary groups has left 24 people dead in just 4 days, figures not seen since 2019.
The CNE announced Maduro's "victory" in the early hours of June 29, amid serious allegations of a lack of transparency and without full access to the voting records.
Witnesses report the actions of armed groups and security agents, attacking citizens who were waiting for results at voting centers.
In Caracas, from Provea we documented how at least 600 pro-government motorcyclists tried to force their way into the Andrés Bello High School to prevent the vote count.
The violence spread to other regions, with murders in entities such as Aragua, where six people died from gunshot wounds.
Provea has recorded at least 50 cases of forced disappearances, in which victims were illegally detained by security forces and paramilitary groups, often without their families having any information about their whereabouts.
The government has intensified Operation Tun-Tun, a massive campaign of persecution directed against opponents, social leaders and protesters: warrantless raids, arbitrary arrests and acts of violence and looting by security forces have been reported.
We urge:
The international community to take strong statements and measures to guarantee respect for human rights in Venezuela. In addition to an independent verification of the records, with effective international monitoring, crucial to protect the Venezuelan will.
Citizens to continue demanding the transparent publication of the election results and to remain firm in the defense of their rights, documenting and denouncing each abuse.
We alert the International Criminal Court and its Prosecutor Karim Khan about this systematic policy of repression that has only become more pronounced. It is part of a pattern of violations that must be considered in the investigation at the ICC for crimes against humanity, Venezuela I.
These facts must be incorporated to guarantee justice for thousands of victims, since in Venezuela there is no independence of powers and the judicial system is part of the repressive body of the State, denounced by the UN Fact-Finding Mission.
The fight for democracy and respect for human dignity is more urgent than ever in Venezuela today." • UN Secretary General expresses concern about human rights violations in Venezuela and calls for transparency regarding the minutes of June 28:
“The CNE has not yet published the results of the elections by polling stations” 23Aug
He is concerned about arbitrary detentions of minors, journalists, defenders, opponents...
He calls for full respect for human rights.
He recalls that every person has the right to freedom of expression and peaceful protest.

The Governments of Argentina, Costa Rica, Chile, Ecuador, the United States, Guatemala, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, the Dominican Republic and Uruguay categorically reject the announcement by the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ) of Venezuela, which yesterday indicated that it had concluded a alleged verification of the results of the electoral process of July 28, issued by the National Electoral Council (CNE), and which seeks to validate the unsupported results issued by the electoral body.
Our countries had already expressed their ignorance of the validity of the CNE declaration, after opposition representatives were prevented from accessing the official count, the non-publication of the minutes and the subsequent refusal to carry out an impartial and independent audit of all they.
The Independent International Mission to Determine the Facts about the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela warned about the lack of independence and impartiality of both institutions, both the CNE and the TSJ.
The undersigned countries reiterate that only an impartial and independent audit of the votes, which evaluates all the minutes, will ensure respect for the sovereign popular will and democracy in Venezuela.
Like the rest of the international democratic community, we will continue to insist on respect for the sovereign expression of the Venezuelan people who spoke out peacefully and forcefully on July 28.
In the same sense, we express our deep concern and rejection of the Human Rights violations perpetrated against citizens who peacefully demand respect for the citizen's vote and the reestablishment of democracy. • https://m.stacker.news/47781 https://www.state.gov/on-the-ruling-of-venezuelas-supreme-tribunal-of-justice/ • Edison, a minor (15 years old) arbitrarily detained in Barinas on August 2 as a result of the post-election protests in Venezuela, was released from prison.

The current situation in my country is one of the most critical. The government has finished laying the foundations to become a total dictatorship, taking control of the powers, based on censorship and repression in every sense.

since 1999

Correct

I'm so sorry. It does look like that's where this is going.

Personally, I feel hopeful and at the same time scared. I am honestly considering pressuring my mother and sisters to emigrate if this is not resolved in the medium term.
reply
What's the most likely path to Maduro being removed at this point?
I know he's being widely condemned internationally, but that doesn't help directly. If anything, that just leads to a US led regime change war. I certainly wouldn't wish that on anyone.
reply
I wonder if the army is dissatisfied enough to turn its back on him.. Ceausescu 1989 style
reply
I sure hope so. What worries me is that the longer this drags on, the less likely that might be to happen.
reply
This has been delayed too long because the Armed Forces, police and National Guard are with the dictatorship. The only soldier who dared to turn his back and try to do something was killed in a horrible way.
reply
So I assume Maduro makes sure the soldiers eat well
It's all very strange to me. How do I know what can happen with a dictatorship? We've all hoped for the best for 25 years and sometimes it seems like an endless nightmare. I don't think they'll get out peacefully. I wouldn't like an intervention, but if it turns out to be the only way out, then I have no choice but to accept it.
reply
Yes, since 1999. The foundations of the dictatorship were laid 20 years ago, that is not recent.
