A young man of 35 years who until recently was an almost unknown deputy seized on
Tuesday the headlines of the world's main media.
And it is that Juan Guaidó not only proclaimed himself "president in charge" of Venezuela but
also received the "blessing" of the White House and numerous governments of Latin America.
The race of Guaidó to become the most prominent leader of the lately dormant opposition to
Nicolás Maduro has been brilliant.
your political career?
A young politician
Guaidó, a native of La Guaira, studied engineering at the Andrés Bello Catholic University (UCAB)
and a postgraduate degree in public administration.
Being a teenager, he had to experience the greatest natural tragedy that Venezuela has suffered
in the last half century: the landslide of Vargas.
Guadió resided in that coastal state when in December of 1999 the incessant rains caused a wall of
water, rocks and debris to fall down the slope of the hill El Ávila, devastating numerous towns and
causing the death of between 10,000 and 30,000 people.
"Guaidó has a combination of many types of Venezuelans: he is someone who is not from a family
with a lot of money, from La Guaira, not from Caracas, who with great effort came to the university
and his parents with a lot of effort could pay him a good university ", explains a fellow student of the
politician, who prefers to remain anonymous.
At that time, the name of the young deputy did not sound like a strong candidate to
preside over Parliament, but the judicial and political problems faced by the main
party leaders cleared the way for him.
Once López (in house arrest) and Carlos Vecchio (number two of the party, exiled in
the United States) were discarded, the visible head of Voluntad Popular in Venezuela
was the deputy Freddy Guevara, who had to seek asylum in the Chilean embassy in
Caracas after the failure of the wave of anti-government protests of 2017.
From the beginning, the politician used the Venezuelan Constitution to highlight the
"illegitimacy" of Maduro and announced that he would work to achieve a peaceful
"transition" to democracy in the country.
