Juan Guaido, the self-proclaimed president of Venezuela, lost his post as leader of the National Assembly yesterday
He was replaced by a former opposition colleague, Luis Parra, a representative from the state of Yaracuy, governed by the ruling Socialists United .
The National Assembly is majority run by opposition politicians. But PSUV politicians and a few opposition figures unhappy with Guaido’s leadership voted for Parra, according to Spanish newswire EFE. Guaido said on his Twitter account earlier today that Maduro’s military police stopped numerous officials from entering the National Assembly, apparently preventing them from voting.
