The New U.S. Strategy to Remove Maduro

Allison Fedirka, Geopolitical Futures
After months of little progress, it seems the United States may be getting closer to removing Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro from office. Until relatively recently, Washington had been pushing to unseat Maduro by throwing its support behind opposition leader Juan Guaido, hoping that he could inspire an uprising that could overthrow the president. So far, that strategy hasn't worked. So Washington has come up with a new plan: negotiate a transition directly with the Maduro government.
