Guaido: there are threats against me, my family

(28 Feb 2019) Juan Guaido, recognized by many countries as Venezuela's interim president, said he would return to Caracas this weekend despite "threats." Guaido spoke at a press conference in Brazil's capital of Brasilia after meeting with President Jair Bolsonaro, who recognizes Guaido and has taken a hard line against Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Guaido said every country in the world is welcome in helping to remove President Nicolas Maduro from power. "Russia, China, all of the agreements, all the arrangements that have been written in law in Venezuela will be respected," he said reaching out to governments that have been strong backers of Maduro.   During his visit to Brazil, Guaido is also expected to meet with Foreign Minister Ernesto Araujo, leaders of Congress and ambassadors of several countries. On Tuesday, Guaido met in Colombia with regional diplomats and US Vice President Mike Pence. Guaido has won recognition as Venezuela's rightful leader from more than 50 nations, including the United States, but has been unable to wrest power from Maduro. Guaido-led attempts over the weekend to bring humanitarian aid into Venezuela via neighbouring Brazil and Colombia failed.
