Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is under blockade in the country after claiming ownership of the platform caused hatred and “violated” the rules of his social network. “Shame on dictator Maduro” WHO that the current president committed “big election fraud”.
Maduro, who also claims his opponents are using the platform to incite political unrest, said he greenlit the national telecommunications authority’s proposal to “suspend social network X, formerly known as Twitter in Venezuela, for 10 days.” Therefore said that its correspondents in the country were unable to access X after the announcement. X did not have a public relations department that could be reached for comment.
While Musk arguably fanned the flames of the situation in Venezuela, Maduro could use him as a scapegoat, so he has an excuse to temporarily block Xi and stop discussing the election results. The president claimed to have won the July presidential election, but the result is controversial.
A review of independent exit polls and voting machine data showed that Maduro’s opposition, Edmundo Gonzalez, could garner twice as many votes as the incumbent. The National Electoral Council, controlled by Maduro, claimed that Maduro won 52 percent of the vote and Gonzalez 43 percent. The council has not yet submitted the voting results as required by law.
