Edmundo Gonzalez revealed in a video address that he was coerced by Venezuela's government into signing a document acknowledging President Nicolas Maduro's victory in the disputed July election.
He stated, 'I was under duress during very intense hours of coercion, blackmail and pressure that led me to sign the document,' emphasizing the extreme tactics employed by the government.
Gonzalez's declaration speaks to a broader narrative in which Venezuelan authorities coerce opposition figures into making statements that incriminate themselves or weaken their cause.
The government's effort to label opposition leaders as cowards is a tactic aimed at undermining their credibility and discouraging political resistance.
