CARACAS - Venezuela opposition leader Juan Guaido said on Tuesday he was in talks with unions about calling strikes for state workers in a bid to paralyze the public sector, tightening pressure on a weakened President Nicolas Maduro by targeting his key support base.
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.” Guaido, recognized by most Western nations as Venezuela’s legitimate head of state, said the strikes would be staggered and aim to paralyze the public sector.
