The United States has expressed deep concern over Nicolas Maduro's decision to withdraw an invitation extended to European Union election observers. This move contradicts commitments made in Barbados in October 2023 aimed at supporting the integrity of the electoral process.

"Maduro and his representatives should immediately reverse this decision and allow credible international election observation that will build trust in the electoral process," a U.S. spokesperson stated.

The U.S. reiterated its commitment to working with the international community to support the aspirations of the Venezuelan people for a more democratic, stable, and prosperous nation.
