委内瑞拉在美国的压力下于2025年圣诞节释放了99名选举被拘留者,但仍有900多名政治犯。 Venezuela freed 99 election detainees on Christmas 2025 amid U.S. pressure, but over 900 political prisoners remain.

据政府和人权消息来源说,委内瑞拉释放了在2024年7月有争议的总统选举后被拘留的99人。 According to government and human rights sources, Venezuela freed 99 people who had been detained following the contentious July 2024 presidential election. 然而,权利组织对准确数字提出质疑,有些组织只确认释放45至71人。 However, rights organizations contest the precise figure, with some confirming only 45 to 71 releases. 许多被拘留者主要因与抗议有关的指控而被拘留,即使在有条件的措施下获释后,他们仍然受到限制。 Many of the detainees, who were primarily detained on charges related to protests, are still subject to restrictions even after being released under conditional measures. 尽管有此举，据Foro Penal和Justicia、Encuentro y Perdón等组织称，至少有902名政治犯仍被拘留，且新的逮捕仍在进行中。 Despite the gesture, at least 902 political prisoners are still in custody, according to groups like Foro Penal and Justicia, Encuentro y Perdón, and new arrests are still being made. 与此同时,美国对委内瑞拉的海上和军事压力增加,包括在其海岸附近进行罢工和扣押油轮。 The releases coincide with increased maritime and military pressure from the United States on Venezuela, including strikes and the seizure of oil tankers close to its coast. 官员们猜测这一行动是为了缓和国际紧张局势。 Officials speculate that the action was calculated to reduce international tension.
