Juan Guaidó released a video from an air base near Caracas surrounded by armed men in uniforms, calling on Venezuelans to help topple President Nicolas Maduro.
Juan Guaidó, the self-declared Interim President of Venezuela, has launched what he is describing as the “final phase” of his plan to oust President Nicolas Maduro from power, after months of grappling with the authoritarian leader for power.
“The national armed forces have taken the correct decision, and they count on the support of the Venezuelan people,” Guaidó said, noting he was at the La Carlota air base just to the east of the capital. Venezuela’s Information Minister Jorge Rodriguez said authorities are “currently tackling and putting down a small group of traitorous military personnel.” He said Guaidó and his supporters “are engaged in a coup d’état against the constitution and the peace of the republic.”
Florida Senator Marco Rubio, who has been one of Guaidó’s most vocal foreign supporters and a key influence on the White House’s Venezuela policy, tweeted out his support of the action. “This is the moment for those military officers in Venezuela to fulfill their constitutional oath & defend the legitimate interim President [Guaidó] in this effort to restore democracy,” Rubio wrote.
