CARACAS: Opposition leader Juan Guaido held talks with Venezuela's public sector unions on Tuesday about staging strikes to help bring down the government, as President Nicolas Maduro said a"crazed minority" bent on destabilising the country would be defeated.
"They thought the pressure had already maxed out," said Guaido, who is recognised by most Western nations as Venezuela's legitimate head of state.Advertisement While Guaido had publicly speculated that authorities would detain him when he returned, he passed through Caracas' international airport without a problem. He then sped to a march where he mocked the government for letting him in so easily, telling the crowd:"Somebody didn't follow an order."
"If he wanted to build a democratic Venezuela, he had the opportunity to do so, but he did not," Abrams told reporters. "The moment has come and our call, our request, and our complete support for public employees, is to bring about this strike," Guaido said after meeting with state workers. He did not say when the strikes would be held.
