Venezuela’s Opposition Issues No Official Comment on Reports of Explosions
Venezuela’s opposition has said it has no official comment at this stage regarding reports of explosions and an alleged attack in the country, noting that details are still being verified and the situation remains unclear.
Among the most prominent opposition figures is María Corina Machado, a long-standing critic of President Nicolás Maduro. She has previously voiced support for recent maritime operations and actions framed as efforts to counter illicit networks, describing some of the latest US measures as “decisive.”
The Venezuelan government earlier barred Machado from running in the presidential election, a move condemned by opposition groups and several international actors. Her political status continues to draw attention as developments in the country unfold.
The government, meanwhile, has repeatedly accused external actors of seeking to influence domestic politics and has linked rising tensions to competition over the nation’s substantial energy resources.
