Now, a neighboring South American country has also decided to act against the authoritarian leader.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>A federal court in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/argentina\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Argentina<\/a> called for the &ldquo;immediate&rdquo; arrest of Maduro on Monday for alleged crimes against humanity in dealing with protesters and dissidents after the July election, according to the <em>Associated Press<\/em>. The court also called for the arrest of Venezuela&rsquo;s Interior Minister <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/maduro-cabinet-shuffle-diosdado-cabello-66d9d34ce5f8ba5bc477fb1eb8ccd4ac\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Diosdado Cabello<\/a> for the same charges.<\/p>\n<p>Pablo Bertuzzi, Leopoldo Bruglia, and Mariano Llorens, members of Argentina&rsquo;s federal court, issued a resolution declaring that &ldquo;the arrest warrants for Nicol&aacute;s Maduro and Diosdado Cabello be executed immediately, and that their international arrest should be ordered via Interpol for the purposes of extradition to the Argentine Republic,&rdquo; the <em>Associated Press<\/em> reported.<\/p>\n<p>Venezuela&rsquo;s presidential election has been mired in controversy ever since Maduro, the incumbent, was declared the winner by the country&rsquo;s National Electoral Council. Despite this victory, it is widely believed that his opponent, Edmundo Gonzalez of the opposition party, was the true election winner, as tallies reportedly showed Gonzalez earned more than 70% of the country&rsquo;s. However, the NEC, a Maduro-aligned government organization, claimed Maduro was the victor without proof.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As a result, numerous protests and demonstrations were held throughout the country in opposition to Maduro&rsquo;s claim of victory. In response, Maduro ordered the arrests of many protesters. Gonzalez was forced to flee the country and is now in Spain, where he has been granted asylum.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Despite Maduro&rsquo;s actions, the order from the Argentine court to arrest Maduro is also considered retaliatory. Previously, the Venezuela Supreme Court issued an arrest warrant for Argentina&rsquo;s President Javier Milei, the <em>Associated Press<\/em> reported. The Venezuela court order stems from an earlier incident in which a cargo plane belonging to a Venezuela state-owned company was detained in Argentina over <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/argentina-court-maduro-arrest-c9eb994d71c4f58744e7c74137ac5768\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">suspicions<\/a> it was purchased from a sanctioned Iranian airline.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The latest incidents between the South American countries come as diplomatic relations have deteriorated after Milei&rsquo;s election victory in December, according to the <em>Associated Press<\/em>. The breakdown stems from the political ideological differences between Argentina&rsquo;s president and the far-left Maduro.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> <script data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/cdn-cgi\/scripts\/5c5dd728\/cloudflare-static\/email-decode.min.js\"><\/script><script>!function(){var g=window;g.googletag=g.googletag||{},g.googletag.cmd=g.googletag.cmd||[],g.googletag.cmd.push(function(){g.googletag.pubads().setTargeting(\"has-featured-video\",\"true\")})}();<\/script><script>var _bp=_bp||[];_bp.push({\"div\":\"Brid_1767112\",\"obj\":{\"id\":\"27789\",\"width\":\"1280\",\"height\":\"720\",\"stickyDirection\":\"below\",\"video\":\"1767112\"}});<\/script><script defer src=\"https:\/\/services.brid.tv\/player\/build\/brid.min.js\"><\/script><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Argentine court has issued an order for the arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on charges of &#8220;crimes against humanity.&#8221; This decision comes in light of Maduro&#8217;s refusal to relinquish power following what many believe was a lost election in July. The federal court in Argentina called for the &#8220;immediate&#8221; arrest of Maduro, as well as Venezuela&#8217;s Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello, due to their alleged actions against protesters and dissenters after the election, according to the Associated Press. Judges Pablo Bertuzzi, Leopoldo Bruglia, and Mariano Llorens stated that warrants for both leaders should be executed without delay and requested that Interpol facilitate their extradition to Argentina.<\/p>\n<p>The presidential election in Venezuela has been surrounded by controversy since Maduro was declared the winner by the National Electoral Council (NEC), which is aligned with his government. Many believe that his opponent, Edmundo Gonzalez from an opposition party, actually won with over 70% of the votes; however, this claim was dismissed by the NEC without evidence. Following these events, widespread protests erupted across Venezuela against Maduro\u2019s declaration of victory. In retaliation, he ordered numerous arrests of demonstrators while Gonzalez fled to Spain seeking asylum.<\/p>\n<p>The Argentine court&#8217;s move is seen as a response to previous actions taken by Venezuela\u2019s Supreme Court which had issued an arrest warrant for Argentina\u2019s President Javier Milei. This tension arose after a cargo plane linked to a Venezuelan state-owned company was detained in Argentina due to suspicions regarding its purchase from a sanctioned Iranian airline. Diplomatic relations between Argentina and Venezuela have worsened since Milei took office last December due to significant ideological differences between him and Maduro<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2677,"featured_media":2345111,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/maduro-mocks-biden.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[10098,35038,41572,36612,14099],"class_list":["post-2345110","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-argentina","tag-court-order","tag-crimes-against-humanity","tag-maduro","tag-venezuela"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/maduro-mocks-biden.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2345110","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2677"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2345110"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2345110\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2345111"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2345110"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2345110"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2345110"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
