The repression that followed Venezuela's presidential elections in July 2024 devastated the internal structures of the parties within the Unitary Platform, the umbrella alliance that brings together the most important Venezuelan opposition parties. These organizations are the political expression of a widespread desire for change in Venezuela and are, in theory, destined to play a leading role in shaping a transition to democracy.
I think we are in a transition process. It's happening in stages. Sometimes we don't see that certain preconditions must be met for this electoral process to take place. The United States, which has become a key player in domestic politics, has said so. Marco Rubio confirmed it in his meeting with the Caribbean countries: we are heading towards an electoral consultation.
