Maduro says he’s willing to negotiate with opposition, international mediators, but rules out new elections
Caracas, Venezuela (CNN)Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro said he is willing to meet with opposition leaders and international mediators to bring about a solution to the country’s ongoing political crisis, but ruled out holding any new presidential elections until 2025.
“I’m ready to sit down at the negotiating table with the opposition so that we can speak for the good of Venezuela — for the world and its future,” Maduro told Russian state news agency RIA Novosti in an interview published Wednesday.
Maduro was re-elected to a six-year term last year, and though he claimed the elections were fair, international observers have questioned their legitimacy.
