This is demonstrably false, article is just vulgar propaganda hit piece
I shared this article because of this. Lula supported Maduro before the election but asked Venezuela to release the detailed count of the votes. And Venezuela has not done so yet.
The opposition claims the election is rigged and the tension is high.
Maduro warned that a bloodbath would happen after the election if the opposition didn’t accept his victory.
The situation is worrying for the Venenzuelian people. But you say that how they present the situation is pure propaganda. Do you have a better link?

Maybe don't consider a pro-Maduro propaganda rag as a legitimate source for a conflict he's directly involved in.
Maduro is a man who ordered his country to block Signal, ordered it to block social media, and arrests, imprisons, and bans his political opposition. He has also expressed strong support for Russia's invasion of Ukraine, meanwhile the citizens of his country have been starving for years under what is literally known as The Maduro Diet, and the middle class has vanished. He has long forfeit his right to the benefit of the doubt. He is a despot who has now repeatedly falsified election results after mismanaging the country for years, and calls his opposition fascists while being fascist. That the people overwhelmingly want him gone is not some hegemonic plot by the evil West, it's the natural consequence of his actions.
