Caracas, Venezuela — Venezuela prosecutors opened a treason investigation Friday into opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, a statement said, accusing
her of supporting US sanctions targeting President Nicolas Maduro after his contested July reelection.
The office said it is “fighting against any person, group, or national or international entity that threatens the stability of the country.”On Monday, the US House of Representatives passed the BOLIVAR Act, a bipartisan bill that bars US federal agencies from conducting business with the Maduro regime or its associates. It still needs passage by the Senate and President Joe Biden’s signature for it to become law.
Maduro claimed victory and defied domestic and international calls to release detailed polling numbers to back up the assertion that he won. Amid an outcry at home and abroad, the former bus driver Maduro, handpicked by the late Hugo Chavez, is now serving his third term in the oil-rich country whose economy is in shambles, as Venezuelans endure acute shortages of food, medicine, and other basic goods.
