BRASILIA - Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido met with European Union ambassadors to Brazil on Thursday ahead of a meeting with Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro in an effort to drum up international pressure on President Nicolas Maduro to step down.
Guaido’s office said the Bolsonaro portion of the visit would be private, but the Venezuelan opposition leader’s meeting with Foreign Minister Ernesto Araujo would be official. Brazil’s military, whose former officers occupy one third of Bolsonaro’s cabinet posts, have been careful to avoid breaking off relations with Maduro, a socialist in power since 2013, not least because the northern Brazilian border state of Roraima depends on electricity supplies from Venezuela’s Guri dam.
“We continue to strengthen relations with countries that have recognized our efforts to restore democracy in Venezuela and hold free elections,” Guaido said in a Twitter message after meeting with diplomats from about 20 EU member states.
