The United States has offered the leader of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, who allegedly won another victory in the presidential elections, an offer of amnesty.
The politician will be released from criminal liability in Washington if he renounces power, which has been completely usurped.
This is reported by sources of the Wall Street Journal.

Maduro's victory in the elections in Venezuela — US position
Thus, according to their information, US officials made an offer of amnesty to Maduro through intermediaries last year in Qatar.
At that time, Washington did not announce details for refusing the presidential post, but even now, those close to the Venezuelan leader claim that he has not changed his intentions to preserve the regime.
Now negotiations between trusted persons of American President Joe Biden and Venezuelan dictator Maduro have continued.
The White House made it clear that it will not force Western oil companies to leave Venezuela.
Nicolas Maduro — relations with the United States
In 2020, the United States accused Maduro of drug smuggling.
The US Department of Justice also brought charges against other high-ranking Venezuelan officials.
The US authorities then offered $15 million for information that would help arrest Maduro and members of his government.
The Venezuelan leader was accused of collaborating with the Colombian FARC group to “flood the United States with cocaine”, using planes flying from an air base in Venezuela.
