Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido on Tuesday called for an electoral accord with Nicolas Maduro’s government, using sanctions relief as an incentive for the regime’s participation.
The accord must have international support and focus on holding new presidential and legislative elections, after the opposition boycotted previous votes for lacking safeguards to keep balloting free and fair, Guaido said Tuesday.
