Venezuela's Machado Frozen Out of Government

Maria Corina Machado is a person who got a lot of attention in Venezuela.

She wanted to be part of the government, but it seems unlikely to happen soon.

A former diplomat named Imdat Oner, who is now a fellow at a public policy institute in Florida, said that unless there are free and fair elections, Machado doesn't have a chance.

Right now, such elections are not planned, so the opportunity for her is closing.

There's not much she or her supporters can do at the moment.
