“I have to tell the people (…): My fate is in their hands. If the opposition wins again, I will leave the presidency. If they win the elections, I will not stay here,” he said.

In the Venezuelan legislative elections on Sunday, 107 political parties and associations compete for seats in a unicameral parliament, while the opposition Juan Guaidó, the party backed by Washington and its allies and the main opponent of Nicolás Maduro, decided to boycott these elections.
Given this boycott and the internal political conditions on the eve of this event, the chances of the loyalists defeated to President Maduro are slim, according to those observing the events in Venezuela.
The opposition said that the # 6 Dec of 2020, they are a plebiscite I accept the Challenge! Let’s see who wins, if we win; We will continue forward, but if we lose the National Assembly, I will leave the Presidency of the Republic.
