Venezuela's First Lady-in-waiting says socialist Nicolás Maduro has destroyed the country - but said her husband interim president Juan Guaido will deliver a brighter future.

Fabiana Rosales, 26, says after years of misery and poverty she feels like the country is being reborn.

Speaking from Caracas, a city in chaos, the university-educated mother of one also revealed her own family's tragedy at the unnecessary death of her father due to the lack of medicines.

'I see a country full of hope and going the right way,' Ms Rosales told Venezuela's El Nacional newspaper.

WNU Editor:What strikes me about the protest movement in Venezuela is that it is being driven by young people. Fabiana Rosales is only 26. Her husband is 35. The people that they are confronting are in their late fifties or older. This has become a generational conflict, as well as an indeological one.

Hopefully they'll be safe and sound when this mess is over. Maybe they can educate US millennials on the joys of socialism.

It's funny how Maduro is always described as "socialist" in those news stories, but Juan Guaido isn't - even though they both call themselves that.

I am just gonna drop this here just for the past of the self proclaimed president. To clarify i am not supporting either, i just found odd how he was presented as a deus ex machina.

Daniel,

That is very interesting. There's so little we know about this guy. I personally think US leaders leaped before they looked so to speak. This is much like what happened in Ukraine, Syria, and Libya. Essentially support a person or group having no idea who or what you are supporting.

By being the first to recognize the Guaido guy it definitely lends credence to anyone claiming the US is up to no good here especially given how despised the US is in the region. If the goal is the removal of Maduro and the case could be made, it would have been better to have the nations in the region lead the process then after an interval once Guaido can be properly vetted then support the parties in the region. Furthermore it should have been made clear from the start that US led military action will NOT be initiated. The only way this would happen would be if it were authorized and led by others in the region with any contributing US forces under the command and control of those in the region.

If Guaido really wants to link himself to the most hated country in the region in order to take on a country such as Venezuela who has very powerful allies, this would seem a recipe for suicide. Unfortunately this appears headed likely for another unmitigated foreign policy disaster for us.

I heard a Ricochet podcast talk to an American reporter in Venezuela. She asked a street vendor if Guaido was the solution. The vendor said, “Who’s Guaido?” We should be careful how much we trust the news. If nothing else, Guaido’s supporters look remarkably well fed for the reported starvation. Where are the poor? Are the collectivos controlling dissent ?
