VOA's Yan Boechat is in Caracas, Venezuela, where international criticism of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro mounted Tuesday, a day after electoral authorities declared him the winner in a presidential election that the opposition claims to have won by a landslide.

During a rally in Caracas on Tuesday, opposition leader Maria Corina Machado called on the National Electoral Council, which is loyal to the ruling party, to release voting tally sheets produced by every voting precinct, asking "why don't they publish them?"

Machado said the opposition coalition has obtained more than 84% of the tallies and that she is confident that opposition candidate Edmundo González was elected to be the new president in Sunday's election.

"The only thing we are willing to negotiate is the peaceful transition," Machado said as the crowd chanted: "We have no fear!"

The Organization of American States chastised Maduro for his government's sustained repression of the opposition. It also lambasted the National Electoral Council for not releasing the precinct-level results.

I am sad to say, nothing will happen. Maduro will remain in power as long as the military sides with him.
