Earlier a spokesperson for the prime minister said that the 2018 presidential poll was neither free nor fair, stating that the UK fully backed Guaido, Reuters reports.
This move was more than expected following the US traditional Coup D’Etat script and now it’s only a matter of time to see how many others puppet European countries follow the move.
