Claims that results do not reflect the people's will

The U.S. government body deemed it "critical" to address the "clear signs" that the electoral results announced by Venezuela's National Electoral Council "do not reflect the will of the Venezuelan people as expressed at the polls on July 28."

In this regard, the statement added that they are reviewing other electoral data shared by civil society organizations and reports from international electoral observers.
