"It's important, fundamental, that we get several governments in the region to unite in the short term to make sure that only a popular and democratic agenda exists in Venezuela," Borges said.
The unrest in Venezuela continued after Maduro announced that he wanted to create a new assembly and re-write the Constitution. During the deadly demonstrations, opposition protesters were demanding elections.
