Venezuela's Guaido says 'all options open' after Maduro blocks aidVenezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido, who many nations have recognized as the country's rightful interim ruler, talks to the media during a news conference near the Tienditas cross-border bridge between Colombia and Venezuela, in Cucuta, Colombia February 23, 2019. Guaido had given a personal send-off to one convoy carrying aid from the Colombian city of Cucuta on Saturday. Maduro denies his oil-rich nation has any need of aid and accuses Guaido of being a coup-mongering puppet for U.S. President Donald Trump. Washington has warned it could seek to impose tough new sanctions on Venezuela at Monday’s summit if Maduro blocked the aid shipments. On Saturday, Maduro turned his ire on Colombia and said Duque was letting its territory be used for attacks against Venezuela.
