The protest will be a response to the inauguration of current President Nicolás Maduro, which is scheduled to take place the following day.
Machado, who has long remained in the shadows after a disputed presidential election, is calling for mobilization amid growing discontent with the results of the vote. The elections held on July 28 caused a wave of criticism due to doubts about their transparency, but Maduro was officially declared the winner.
The opposition sees the day of protests as an opportunity to express unity and determination in the fight against the authoritarian regime.
The intensification of the protest movement predicts an aggravation of the confrontation between opposition supporters and government forces, which are ready to ensure order in the capital Caracas and other large cities.
