Since Venezuela鈥檚 July 28, 2024, presidential election, which opposition candidate Edmundo Gonz谩lez Urrutia won decisively, Nicol谩s Maduro鈥檚 regime has defied the will of the people and intensified its campaign of repression and terror. Over 1,600 political prisoners remain behind bars, while opposition leaders have been forced into hiding or exile. Despite international condemnation, Maduro had himself inaugurated for a third term in January.

Under Maduro, Venezuela has transformed into a criminal hub, facilitating illicit activities that threaten regional stability. Although the regime released six American citizens in February, Maduro鈥檚 Venezuela continues to deepen its strategic alliances with rogue states like Iran, posing a growing threat to the security of the United States.

Join Adjunct Fellow Daniel Batlle and the leader of the Venezuelan opposition, Mar铆a Corina Machado, for a discussion on the implications of Maduro鈥檚 dictatorship for Venezuela and the United States.
