Secretary of State Mike Pompeo suggested that President Nicolás Maduro was ready to flee the country following the attempted coup.
Russian officials have dismissed a U.S. claim that Moscow had advised Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro against fleeing the country on Tuesday.
His claims have since been disputed by the Russian Foreign Ministry, which suggested Washington was engaging in what it described as “information war” and that the claim was fake. Moscow had previously accused Washington of looking to orchestrate a coup in Venezuela. On Tuesday, in what appeared to be a thinly-veiled dig at the U.S., it criticized foreign interference.
Jorge Arreaza, Venezuela’s minister of foreign affairs, also rubbished Pompeo’s claims, suggesting Guaidó’s attempted coup had been orchestrated by Washington.
