Protests erupted in Venezuela’s capital Monday as the regime deflected charges it had rigged an election win for President Nicolas Maduro that the opposition has disputed and many in the international community have questioned.

Hundreds of people poured onto the streets of Caracas chanting: “Freedom, freedom!” and “This government is going to fall!”

Several were seen ripping Maduro campaign posters from street posts and burning them.

Maduro, 61, attended a meeting on Monday where the National Electoral Council (CNE) certified his reelection to a third six-year term from 2025 to 2031.

At the event, he dismissed international criticism and doubts about the result, claiming Venezuela was the target of an attempted “coup d’etat” of a “fascist and counter-revolutionary” nature.
