The title omits the year, but the rules explicitly establish a deadline of December 31, 2026, creating a multi-year window that could surprise someone expecting the current calendar year. The rules specifically require physical entry onto terrestrial territory, explicitly ruling out airspace or maritime incursions. Because María Corina Machado's exact whereabouts have often been clandestine within Venezuela, verifying a distinct physical entry rather than continued presence may rely heavily on news verification. No specific official agency or registry is designated to decide, leaving resolution dependent on assessing a consensus across credible reporting.
