Opposition leader María Corina Machado not only acknowledged González’s victory, but also emphasized that he won in all of Venezuela’s states. She proclaimed: “We won, and everyone knows it. This is the truth.” Her fearless stance inspired other leaders to speak out in defense of democracy and the rights of the Venezuelan people⁹.

3. The Importance of National Independence

Nicolás Maduro, the incumbent president, also made statements after the result. He stressed that the outcome represented “the triumph of national independence and the dignity of the people”.
