The Making of Juan Guaidó: How the US Regime Change Laboratory Created Venezuela’s Coup Leader
(29.1.2019) Before the fateful day of January 22, fewer than one in five Venezuelans had heard of Juan Guaidó. Only a few months ago, the 35-year-old was an obscure character in a politically marginal far-right group closely associated with gruesome acts of street violence.
