Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaidó said the government of Nicolás Maduro was too scared to arrest him, just hours after his own chief of staff was detained by armed security forces in a pre-dawn raid on Thursday.
“It’s clear that today they don’t dare do anything to me,” Mr Guaidó told reporters after his aide Roberto Marrero was taken away by hooded officers who broke into his Caracas apartment in the middle of the night.
