Economist and political scientist Luis Vicente León said that holding elections in Venezuela is possible provided there is a prior political agreement that will create constitutional institutionalism and prevent a "zero-sum game" scenario where one side wins everything and the other loses everything. León emphasized that this process should not be perceived as coercion or an act of revenge, since history shows that revenge destroys more than it resolves, and he called for viewing the period from January 3 as a time for reflection, calming passions, and reducing fear. According to the analyst, Venezuelan society has the right to demand progress, but the correct path is not to bypass negotiations, but to build them, creating conditions for elections in which democracy requires the consent of all parties.
