Guaido demanded that Venezuelan military not shoot at demonstrators

This is reported by EFE.

“Today I give you the order: do not shoot at the Venezuelan people. For those who clearly, without violating the constitution, went out to protect your family, your people ... I give the order not to suppress peaceful demonstrations, ”he said.

On January 23, Guayido declared himself the interim head of state. Washington therefore called on the President of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, to hand over power to him.

Venezuelan Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino Lopez said that what is happening in the country is a coup d'état.

Professor of the Faculty of International Relations of St. Petersburg State University, Lazar Kheyfets, in an interview with NSN, expressed the opinion that Maduro still has a chance to retain power.
