Venezuelan presidential candidate Manuel Rosales has expressed willingness to cede his place on the ballot to a unity candidate from the opposition, as uncertainty looms over who will challenge President Nicolas Maduro in the upcoming July contest. The opposition faces a deadline to decide whether to back one of the registered candidates or name alternates, with prominent figure Maria Corina Machado barred from holding office but still holding significant support. The opposition has struggled to dislodge Maduro, who has been in power since 2013, and many prominent opposition figures have faced bans or arrest, leading to ongoing political tensions and international scrutiny.

The BJP is willing to build alliances and compromise on ethical politics to secure a win in 2024, as seen in their opportunistic tie-up with Ajit Pawar.

Both ruling parties of Telugu states, BRS and YSRCP, have opted out of opposition unity moves ahead of 2024 elections. While BRS is trying to expand on its own to other states, YSRCP prefers not to be part of any pre-poll alliance at the national level. With TDP and JSP inclined for an alliance with the BJP, it appears that there will be no contribution from Telugu states to the opposition unity at the national level.
