"Maria Corina Machado, having slipped out of Venezuela to receive her Nobel peace prize, has been unable to return since Maduro's capture, as Washington fears her presence could disrupt plans to exploit Venezuela's oil reserves."
"In Machado's absence, Delcy Rodriguez has consolidated power, purging Maduro allies and attempting to present herself as a competent technocrat capable of reviving the economy, with campaign posters featuring her face across Caracas."
"Members of Machado's movement are increasingly frustrated at being excluded from Venezuela's political future and the lack of a democratic transition following Maduro's downfall, highlighting the ongoing struggle for political representation."
Maria Corina Machado plans a rally in Madrid to push for political change in Venezuela, having been sidelined by U.S. support for Delcy Rodriguez. Despite expectations that Machado would take power after the capture of Nicolas Maduro, Trump backed Rodriguez, complicating Machado's return to Venezuela. Rodriguez has consolidated power and focused on the economy, while Machado's supporters express frustration over their exclusion from the political process. The upcoming demonstration is expected to attract significant public support for Machado's cause.
