“I am very happy to see María Corina Machado return to Venezuela. Her extraordinary struggle reminds us that the path to freedom may be long, but it is worth fighting for. We all hope that Venezuela will now move towards truly free elections and fully rejoin the family of democratic nations,” Tsikhanouskaya wrote on X.
