US condemns ban on Venezuelan opposition leader’s candidacy

The U.S. government and nearly 30 conservative world leaders on Saturday condemned the decision of Venezuela’s highest court to block the presidential candidacy of opposition leader Maria Corina Machado.
The Biden administration, however, remained noncommittal about reimposing economic sanctions on Venezuela, which it has threatened to do if the government of President Nicolas Maduro failed to ensure a level playing field for the country’s presidential election this year.
