Flanked by soldiers near Caracas airbase, opposition leader promises liberation
A military uprising appears to be under way in Venezuela after the opposition leader, Juan Guaidó, posted a video of himself flanked by soldiers, promising to end the rule of President Nicolás Maduro .
“The moment is now,” Guaidó said in a three-minute speech, apparently filmed just before dawn on Tuesday near La Carlota, the main military airbase in Caracas. “We are going to achieve liberty and democracy for Venezuela.”
Standing beside Guaidó as he spoke was Leopoldo López, an opposition politician who is meant to be under house arrest.
As the video ended, the camera moves to show a few dozen troops lined up, apparently in front of armoured troop carriers.
