"I want the people of Venezuela — the democrats of Venezuela — to know that Canada stands with them and recognizes that they are fighting hard for democracy and freedom," Canada's Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said.
President Nicolás Maduro and opposition rival Edmundo Gonzalez both claimed victory in Venezuela's presidential election that millions in the long-suffering nation saw as their best shot to end 25 years of single-party rule.
Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin earlier on Monday congratulated Maduro on his re-election, saying Moscow enjoyed a strategic partnership with the South American state and that Maduro was always welcome in Russia.
