Members of the Bolivarian militias patrol Caracas as opposition figures, including Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia and Maria Corina Machado, face intimidation and arrests leading up to Inauguration Day.
In a chilling atmosphere, Venezuelan police and military actions have led to widespread arrests of critics, while power cuts exacerbate the tense climate for opposition leaders.
President Maduro publicly criticized international support for the opposition, claiming that seven foreigners linked to 'mercenaries' were arrested, illustrating the regime’s paranoia and readiness to suppress dissent.
Despite widespread intimidation, Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia is determined to attend his swearing-in ceremony, with the US pledging support for his presidency amidst heavy Chavista resistance.
