Venezuela's Guaid? angles for Trump 会合 at end of trip
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - Venezuelan 対立 leader Juan Guaid? 包むs up an international 小旅行する with a 決起大会／結集させる in Miami on 最高の Bowl 週末 with the ぼんやり現れるing question whether the 対立 leader can 得点する／非難する／２０ an important 会合 with 大統領 Donald Trump.
Guaid?'s ability to 勝利，勝つ 直面する time with Trump in a symbolically important 会合 will 実験（する） the young political leader´s standing with his most important international 同盟（する）.
"If Trump does not 会合，会う with Guaid?, that would raise serious questions about the 行政´s continuing かかわり合い to Venezuela´s 暫定的な 大統領，／社長," said Michael Shifter, 大統領，／社長 of the Washington-based の間の-American 対話 think 戦車／タンク. "It might 井戸／弁護士席 be 解釈する／通訳するd that Trump is hedging on Guaid?."
With his support 負かす／撃墜する at home, Guaid? 開始する，打ち上げるd the second year of his so-far 不成功の （選挙などの）運動をする to 除去する 大統領 Nicol?s Maduro by 反抗するing a travel 禁止（する） and slipping out of Venezuela 捜し出すing to shore up 支援 from leaders in Colombia, across Europe and Canada.
Venezuela has been a 最高の，を越す 優先 in Latin America for the Trump 行政, which was a year ago the first の中で nearly 60 政府s to throw their 負わせる behind Guaid?. U.S. 公式の／役人s called Maduro a "独裁者," and 攻撃する，衝突する the 明言する／公表する-run Venezuelan oil 会社／堅い PDVSA with 許可／制裁s の中で other 財政上の 対策 designed to 押し進める out the 社会主義者 leader.
However, Maduro remains in 支配（する）／統制する, having 直面するd 負かす／撃墜する a クーデター 試みる／企てる, a 簡潔な／要約する 再開 of 集まり anti-政府 抗議するs and U.S. 許可／制裁s.

At さまざまな stops on his international trip, Guaid? has met with U.S. 国務長官 マイク Pompeo, U.S. 商務長官 Wilbur Ross and White House 助言者 Ivanka Trump, the 大統領，／社長´s daughter, but he hasn´t yet gotten to the U.S. 大統領，／社長.
He 行方不明になるd Trump at the World 経済的な 会議 in Davos, Switzerland, arriving a day after the U.S. 大統領，／社長 left. The two will both be in Florida this 週末, but it is 不明瞭な whether Guaid? is on the guest 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） for Trump's 最高の Bowl party at his 損なう-a-Lago club - or 招待するd to any other 会合s.
A Trump-Guaid? 会合 is under consideration and would likely take place this 週末 in south Florida, によれば two people, 含むing a 上級の U.S. 公式の／役人. The 公式の／役人 and another perso n familiar with the discussions spoke to The Associated 圧力（をかける） on 条件 of anonymity because they weren´t 権限を与えるd to discuss the U.S. 大統領，／社長´s 計画（する）s.
Shifter said the 欠如（する） of a Trump-Guaid? 開会／開廷／会期 would demoralize the Venezuelan 対立 that has counted on Washington for unwavering support. It would also be puzzling to U.S. 同盟（する）s like Colombia and Brazil, which have worked in concert with the U.S. in fully 支援 Guaid?, he said.
Guaid? has not 配達するd the change in Venezuela that the Trump 行政 and the country's 対立 推定する／予想するd, but he is still Venezuela's most popular political 人物／姿／数字, Shifter said.
"Trump may be 失望させるd and believe he was misled on Venezuela," Shifter said. "But there is little cost in 会合 with Guaid? as the democratic struggle enters a new, very difficult, 段階."
Guaid? 現れるd from the 対立 in January 2019 to become the first viable 挑戦者 in years to Maduro, the 手渡す-chosen 後継者 of the late charismatic leader Hugo Ch?vez. The economy continues to 縮む after two １０年間s of 社会主義者 支配する, にもかかわらず Venezuela 持つ／拘留するing the world's largest oil reserves.
The political and social 危機 is 運動ing 集まり 移住 as Venezuelans abandon a country with 不足s of reliable water, food, electricity, ガソリン and 医療の care, の中で basic services.
Guaid? （人命などを）奪う，主張するd 大統領の 力／強力にするs as leader of the 対立-controlled 国家の 議会, 公約するing before 元気づける 集まりs in Caracas' streets to 倒す Maduro and 回復する 僕主主義. However, his 計画（する） hitched on flipping the 軍の's 忠義 from Maduro, something that hasn't happened.
Maduro today appears emboldened. 武装した 非軍事の groups loyal to the 大統領，／社長 patrol the streets on motorcycles, 封鎖するing Guaid? and 連合した 国会議員s from entering their 法律を制定する hall. 知能 police 占領するd Guaid?´s office space after he left on his foreign 小旅行する.
"The biggest clown ever in Venezuelan or world politics 宣言するd himself as 大統領，／社長," Maduro said in a celebratory 演説（する）／住所 on the 周年記念日 of Guaid? （人命などを）奪う，主張する to 力／強力にする. "Who the hell elected you?"
At the time, Guaid? was in Europe 提起する／ポーズをとるing for photos with world leaders 含むing British 総理大臣 Boris Johnson, French 大統領 Emmanuel Macron and German （ドイツなどの）首相／（大学の）学長 Angela Merkel. In Canada, he met with 総理大臣 Justin Trudeau.
Guaid? wrote an op-ed published Thursday in the Miami 先触れ（する） 説 he was in the U.S. He thanked Trump, U.S. 国会議員s and their 相当するものs in Europe and throughout the Americas for all they have done for Venezuela.
"They have helped Venezuela in our time of greatest need, and no Venezuelan will ever forget that," he wrote. "Their かかわり合い has been 驚くべき／特命の／臨時の, but on に代わって of our people, I must ask for more."
Guaid?'s planned 決起大会／結集させる Saturday in Miami is 推定する／予想するd to draw a large number of Venezuelans in the biggest diaspora of 国外追放／海外移住s living in the 部隊d 明言する／公表するs. It's also a 政治上 important swing-明言する／公表する for Trump.
Guaido might then make the risky move of returning home, although his team has not 解放（する）d 詳細（に述べる）s of this 計画（する）s.
He 完全にするd a 類似の international 小旅行する a year ago, returning without hassles on a 商業の flight that landed in Venezuela´s main airport outside Caracas. A 連合 of 連合した foreign 外交官／大使s 迎える／歓迎するd him in a show of 団結.
Risa Grais-Targow, a Venezuela 分析家 for the Eurasia Group, said 侵略 by Maduro against the 対立 in 最近の weeks - such as 封鎖するing them from their congressional 会合 hall - shows Maduro is 押し進めるing the 限界s to see if the international community is still watching.
"There´s a 可能性のある for Maduro to be more 積極的な toward Guaid?," Grais-Targow said. "It seems to me he´s feeling much more 確信して in his position today than he was, certainly, six months ago." _____
