“Tell the Bolivarian government and Nicolas Maduro what is necessary to be changed,” the Venezuelan leader said.
Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro has called for a weekend of national dialogue as opposition demonstrations have rocked the South American nation this week.
Opposition leader Juan Guaidó, who declared himself to be Venezuela’s interim president in January, announced on Tuesday that he had military support and called for a last push to force Maduro from power. Soldiers now loyal to Guaidó and protesters clashed with forces that have remained loyal to the Venezeulan government. Dozens of injuries have been reported and videos showing military vehicles running over demonstrators have been widely shared online.

Guaidó has cited a provision in the Venezuelan constitution to justify his claim to power. In the absence of a president, the leader of the National Assembly is required to step in to fulfill the duties of the head of state. The opposition and its supporters argue that Maduro is no longer the legitimate president, dismissing last year’s election results.
