Does Venezuela’s opposition have any legitimacy left?

Many say Venezuela’s legislative election was over before it even began. The opposition boycotted Sunday’s vote calling it a sham.

President Nicolas Maduro says he has regained the National Assembly, the last institution controlled by his opponent Juan Guaido.

Despite support from the United States and more than 50 nations, Guaido has failed to unseat Maduro.

So does he and Venezuela’s opposition movement have any legitimacy left?

Presenter: Imran Khan

Guests:

Paul Dobson – Venezuelanalysis.com analyst

Vanessa Neumann – former official representative of Juan Guaido to the United Kingdom and Ireland

Eric Farnsworth – vice president Council of the Americas
