His intervention comes as the presidents of Brazil, Mexico and Colombia all called on Venezuela to release the full details of last Sunday’s election.

It has also attracted global criticism, with many governments around the world demanding the Venezuelan government release proof of the result.

The result has been recognised by Venezuelan allies China, Russia and Iran.

But, the US, European Union and other G7 countries have called on Mr Maduro’s government to release detailed voting data.

    The government did not release them, and you’ve provided no source for your claim. Also, showing up to a courthouse as they’re all rounded up and being thrown in a jail? Give me a break. Many countries are calling for the release of the results, including leftist governments like Colombia and Brazil.

        There’s nothing in the source you linked about Maduro releasing results online and some “hack” not allowing it. Maduro has not released any results.

        The source you linked does report all the things I’ve said in my comment again though.

        And it’s not just rhetoric, he is jailing his opposition.

          Sorry, I guess I was mistaken. Looks like the story is he tried to release them but got hacked. Thanks for catching that.

          Right, but because they’re protesting and rioting. Even the US has done that for less. And within the last couple months.
