In recent weeks lawmakers introduced proposals arguing that the United States not acknowledge Nicolas Maduros’ illegitimate presidency in Venezuela.
This week, it was also announced that Venezuelan Assembly leader Juan Guaidó, in accordance with the Venezuelan constitution, was assuming the role of Venezuela’s constitutionally legitimate interim President.
In turn, Florida lawmakers have welcomed the United States’ recognition of Juan Guaidó as Venezuela’s provisional President, and President Donald Trump even wrote a letter addressing the matter.
