Donald Trump's and Venezuela's political crisis

Venezuela's political crisis has intensified and protests intensified, especially after Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guido declared himself president of a transitional period and held new presidential elections. While the United States rushed to recognize the demands of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, not to use violence against the opposition. For his part, Maduro declared that he was the legitimate president of the country, describing the speaker of parliament and the opposition as "a puppet in the hands of the United States."

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said Wednesday that the US administration led by Donald Trump was trying to turn Venezuela into Vietnam in Latin America.

Maduro said in a tweet on his Twitter page.

"We ask the American people to help us prevent the intervention of the administration and the government of President Donald Trump in our affairs, which wants to convert Venezuela to Vietnam in Latin America"
