One example is Venezuela, where Hugo Chávez was democratically elected as president in 1998 and then re-elected in 2000. However, during his time in power, he consolidated power, restricted press freedom, and suppressed opposition. When he died in 2013, his hand-picked successor Nicolás Maduro took over, and he has continued to use authoritarian tactics to maintain his grip on power, including rigging elections, suppressing dissent, and using violence against protesters. Another example is Turkey, where President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has gradually eroded democratic institutions and cracked down on opposition since he was first elected in 2002. Despite facing significant protests and criticism from the international community, he has remained in power and consolidated control over the country.
