Venezuela opposition leader Juan Guaidó arrives in US after fleeing

Politician once recognised by west as country’s legitimate leader had warned of imminent arrest

Juan Guaidó, the opposition leader once recognised by the west as Venezuela’s legitimate president, arrived in the US on Tuesday, strengthening the hand of authoritarian president Nicolás Maduro amid stalled political negotiations.

Guaidó, the most prominent member of Venezuela’s opposition, said on social media ahead of his departure that his family had been threatened. “Until we achieve free elections in Venezuela, we will continue fighting,” he said in a video posted on Twitter.
