CARACAS (Reuters) - The White House in Washington said on Wednesday it will welcome Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido to visit U.S. President Donald Trump, the day after Trump used a national address to support Guaido’s effort to oust socialist President Nicolas Maduro.

“The visit is an opportunity to reaffirm the commitment of the United States to the people of Venezuela and to discuss how we can work with President Guaido to expedite a democratic transition in Venezuela that will end the ongoing crisis,” a statement said.

It called Maduro’s government an “illegitimate dictatorship” and pledged to “stand alongside the Venezuelan people to ensure a future that is democratic and prosperous.”

Venezuela looks pretty lost.  We aren't going to go to war over it. I don't think any "guerillas" are going to take it to battle. We won't battle for their freedom.

I'm talking to people down there on twitter. They are very nice.

It's exceedingly frustrating.

Video of Guiado going to the White House, very formal.  Honor Guard, Marines... or something like that....

I've talked to folks down there on twitter, it's pretty fascinating, of course, there freedom is not for us to win but maybe there are ways we can help. I'm not thinking militarily.

Senator Durbin, Senator Menendez:



I think I heard, he even met with Pelosi!
