Venezuela’s acting president addresses the United Nations General Assembly for the first time since taking power and promises that elections will be held. Speaking on Wednesday, she says the country will move toward elections, but that timing will depend on what she describes as the “right moment.”
Multiple outlets report the pledge as the centerpiece of her debut UN speech. The coverage notes that she frames the decision on when to hold elections as being determined by Venezuela’s people, rather than by a fixed date announced in her remarks.
While the reports align on the central message—elections are promised, and the timing is described as flexible—none of the provided summaries includes additional details on specific election dates, electoral authorities, or conditions for the vote. The emphasis is on the acting leader’s first international address and her signal of intent to return to electoral process.
