Caracas (OrinocoTribune.com)—Venezuelan opposition politician María Corina Machado, who insisted on ignoring the democratic route for years, had until recently asserted that she will not appeal to the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ) for a review of her political disqualification, a legal recourse that she could adopt based on the Barbados Agreement between the Venezuelan government and the opposition’s Unitary Platform. However, on Friday, December 15, the virtual US embassy for Venezuela reported through a social media post that Machado had suddenly changed her position and had gone to the TSJ to request the lifting of her disqualification.
