The US secretary of state insists Venezuelans' votes in the recent presidential election "must count".

…

His intervention comes as the presidents of Brazil, Mexico and Colombia all called on Venezuela to release the full details of last Sunday’s election.

…

It has also attracted global criticism, with many governments around the world demanding the Venezuelan government release proof of the result.

The result has been recognised by Venezuelan allies China, Russia and Iran.

But, the US, European Union and other G7 countries have called on Mr Maduro’s government to release detailed voting data.

    Uh… Colombia??? Kind of a biggie to leave out!

    *Edit, I’m sorry, I live next to the river, I’m used to spelling the name Columbia because we insisted on spelling his name wrong in the US whereas they kept the Italian spelling in South America, he was still a genocidal asshole who could not have discovered a place that already had inhabitants but also was not even the first European to go there though, maybe we shouldn’t name anything after him though technically the river is named after a ship which was named after the person.

        Lol I’m sorry, I blame autocorrect but maybe just me being a dummy. I talk about the brand (and river) a lot more often than the country in my daily life.

      I was using a list of coups. So I kinda forgot about the fuckery in Columbia.
