"We reject this coup movement, which aims to fill the country with violence," said Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino. The United States is among some 50 countries that recognise Guaido as Venezuela's president, and has imposed sanctions to try to dislodge Maduro. Venezuelan Information Minister Jorge Rodriguez tweeted that the government was confronting a small group of"military traitors" seeking to promote a coup.
He has been traveling outside the capital Caracas in recent weeks to try to put pressure on Maduro to step down.Anti-Maduro protests are planned for Wednesday, including what Guaido has said will be"the largest march in Venezuela's history," part of what he calls the"definitive phase" of his effort to take office in order to call fresh elections.
