How to distribute this aid without the intervention of the Maduro regime is a challenge that badyzed this Friday the population of Juan Guaidó in Caracas.

One day, there are new mobilizations this Saturday against Maduro – that Bolton expects to be "mbadive" – ​​said the White House advisor. Donald Trump is "very involved" in this subject, as it was revealed during his recent phone call to Guaidó.

Guaidó, president of the National Assembly of Venezuela, proclaimed on January 23 "president in charge" of the country South America, a gesture that the United States has endorsed from the beginning. Bolton, however, argued that any change was to come from Venezuela and recommended not giving reasons to Maduro to think that Guaidó is a "puppet" of Washington.

Although Bolton again urged Maduro to retire to "a beautiful beach far from Venezuela" and to do so "soon", he said that the amnesty offered by Guaidó will not cover the "atrocities" committed by the chavist regime during the last years.
