Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I don't understand the part about Guaido becoming interim president.
Who asked him to?
Is there a legitimate political mechanism to make somebody the interim president and how is it decided who becomes that person?
Do you need an interim president if a president has been voted in?
Are you justified in having an interim president if you feel the vote was rigged?
What the heck is the UK doing giving Venezuelan money to Guaido?

Basically, Guaido just named himself interim president, because he's a leader of the opposition to the dictator. He's installed himself long enough to ensure free and fair elections. The international community is backing him, as well as many internal factions, because everybody wants the dictator gone.

Media will tell you which "side of the story" THEY want you to believe.

Haven't you folks learned ANYTHING from our fiasco "election"?
Reports are written with that agenda in mind.
