That the countrys government very confident about how these early days are playing out. But listen, in terms of this soundly rejects. But he is supported by a number question of whether he should run on a third term for obama or of governments including the vision for the future, as we United States with both the were getting ready for this campaign as i was talk to biden secretary of state and the Vice President tweeting in support of al ally, they said their biggest guaido. Maduros regime has been blaged piece of advice they were giving is that needs to present a with instability, hyperinflation and violence, but he was forward looking vision, his own vision for the future. Reelected to a second six year but as you talk to Campaign Term last year in a disputed advisers, they would say he has election that some independent a long track record especially entities have called into in the senate that they know question. Joining us now from miami, that they will be playing defense on. Correspondent kerry sanders, it would be political from the white house, malpractice not to leverage their biggest asset which is correspondent hans nichols. Those eight years in the white and also with me, associated house with president obama. Press White House Reporter and we saw that with an early signal political analyst jonathan from president obama, that not quite endorsement, but lemire. Supportive statement in the and kato sthcato institute poli early hours. We see that today in the new video that they posted in the Early Morning hours highlighting analyst. Juankcar lowe. That medal of freechl. And we heard it a few minutes ago when the Vice President was talking about health care. Kerry, where we expect this to lets take a listen. End. Were not sure where it will end, but we do know that juan we got to finish the job. When we passed Affordable Care guaido with that image that he put on twitter with those folks act, i told president obama it who appear to be members of the was a big deal or words to that military in uniform behind him was intended to send a signal effect. Barack obama is an extraordinary man. That members of venezuelas military have broken ranks with you measure a man or a womans president maduro. But there is no real indication worth and their courage based that that is the case in any sort of widespread way. Upon how they react to there are some cracks clearly overwhelming crises. I watched this guy, everything because we have seen some low level members of the military but locusts landed on his desk. Who are in uniform speaking to not a joke. He had an incredible and his Television Cameras saying that they have abandoned their post. Not necessarily pledging their integrity, decency, there wasnt allegiance to juan guaido, but a single solitary day that i just stepping away from the orders from Nicolas Maduro. But that is a very small served with him that i didnt fracture, not widespread. That i wasnt proud to be with and it is unclear whether were going to see if the military him. Are. Reporter so of course the last time that joe biden was on venezuela has about 100 the ballot here for his own generals. Whether there will be any sort of change in allegiance that has candidacy in 2008, he lost to barack obama who won of course been tested many times now and questioned many of times now and and on the road to the white steadfastly stayed with nicolas house. Joe biden of course saying today in iowa that no one is going to maduro. So if the military stays with work harder than joe biden here Nicolas Maduro, which at this in iowa. Point in the time of day that fascinating to watch. Were looking at the pictures on the streets and we see what is happening there, it does not appear that there will be any and you used to work for bernie sort of significant change in sanders. This is almost giving me some the leadership in venezuela. Flashbacks to the way for the but there are those who are supporters of juan guaido and establishment versus bernie played out a little bit in 2020. They number in the hundreds of i know there is still a lot of anger there. Thousands who have taken to the obviously the field now totally streets. And so while they may not have wide open, the Democratic Party establishment not seeming to be weapons, they have will. Picking a favorite. And their will is to see a but this bernie versus biden is really starting to become the change. Really boils down to whose will focus of this race. Yeah, i think that one thing will ultimately lead to either a is also to look back at 2008 change or whether things will because joe biden is going to be continue. Held accountable for joe bidens record in a way that he never very often that is left to the was held accountable in 2008 or person who has the gun with the bullets. 2012. Barack obamas campaign in 2008 and speaking of the guns with was an underdog populist the bullets, i was listening to you earlier and you said Guns Campaign im so sorry to interrupt. Are not accessible to regular venezuelans so that is why the military support is so critical we have to go live to the white here. What is potentially going to house. Shake the military support for seeing the venezuelan people strive to get a government that maduro . What are the dynamics were looking for in that regard . They control, not have a that would really have to be something to do with personal government controlled by an will and philosophy. Because military is taking care authoritarian military regime. Of. This is a country where food is hard to come by. But the military is at the front this is obviously a very serious of the line. And so they get the food, they get the their families get situation. The president has been monitoring it minute by minute the food. And so they are well taken care throughout the day as have his of. About the only people who you will find not in the military advisors. We see this now as a potentially who have guns are members of what are known as sort of dispositive moment in the efforts of the venezuelan people to regain their freedom which we unofficial arm of the maduro government that keeps the fully support. There have been a lot of streets loyal to maduro. So the idea of shifting those speculation, comment in the with the weapons to juan media about what is happening in venezuela. We think that it is still very guaidos side is highly. Important for key figures in the well have to wait to see how this plays out. Regime who have been talking to it is happening in real time, the opposition over these last were watching it happen in real three months to make good on time unfold, and we see as we their commitments to achieve the have seen in the past, it is important to note here, juan guaido has been on the streets peaceful transfer of power from today. Hes been out publicly. The maduro to interim president the Nicolas Maduro government has not taken him in on custody, juan guaido. They have not are arrested him. Figures like defense minister and in the past he has held peaceful protests and other times weve seen violence. Are a. And in the past he has held padrino, chief judge of the peaceful protests and other times weve seen violence. But what we are seeing today, it Venezuelan Supreme Court marino, the commander of the is much larger, much more dramatic and it comes on a day president ial guard, all agree when he released saying this is that maduro had to go. Operation liberty. They need to be able to act this very interesting. Kerry, thanks. Hans, we know that the president afternoon or this evening to help bring other military forces has been briefed on the unrest in venezuela. To the side of the interim what are the dynamics here at home in terms of our foreign president. Policy and how the president is the cubans we believe have looking at this . Played a very significant role reporter the president has been clear that he wants a in propping maduro up today, consistent message on this. There has been no change in possibly with help from the posture, no military assets that russians. That is the speculation have been sent down there. And white house officials are certainly in caracas. We think this demonstrates why very careful to say that, yes, no options are off the table, but they are not doing anything in terms of military assistance. We need venezuela ruled by the people and not external forces. What we heard from Mick Mulvaney earlier today was a warning to thats what we are looking at russia and cuba, they want to and id be happy to answer a few make sure that they dont get involved. And you also see the questions. [ inaudible question ] juan guaido is out on the streets of caracas now. He is rallying the people. Administration adopting the same he has called for the people to come out and they are language recognized and that increasingly on the streets as i this is not a coup. Think many of you know. You will hear that throughout the day from various officials. There were mass demonstrations they do not think of this as a planned for tomorrow. Coup, they think of this as a the circumstances of what has restoration of constitutionally happened today in caracas have mandated powers inside the called people out all over the republic of venezuela. That is the consistent message country. They are trying to on put so guaido is behaving in the forward. Well have an opportunity same courageous way he and other potentially to ask president figures in the opposition have these last three months. Trump at 3 k 30 what he thinks we know that over 40 people have been killed by the maduro regime because he has an open press event. In the course of these protests. And i know you know this well, but watch what marco rubio says this is an act of bravery by because in a lot of ways, when guaido and others really for the freedom of the venezuelan marco rubio says something, the administration then falls behind people. And in some ways marco rubio is given what you have seen on the ground so far today and the running the latin american desk gl degree of loyalty maduro seems for the state department. That is a great point. To still enjoy from the and i think we have some of the military, what do you think the chance is that this uprising most recent rubio tweets. Will work . Well, i dont think that it he writes about the entire world is support in the military for watching a National Guard arrest are mored vikram into a crowd of the maduro regime. Civilian protesters in caracas. I think it is fear. I think it is fear of the 20,000 how far will leaders of the to 25,000 cuban forces in the military allow this assault on their own people to go in country. I think it is fear of the venezuela. He continues on and says that consequences if adhering to the the military and Security Leaders must realize they are constitutional mandates of the interim president fails. And will be held responsible for but i think really now what were seeing is the people of this. Juan karlos, youre no fan of venezuela, this has been building for a long time, that if this effort fails, they will maduro. What in your view should the sink into a dictatorship from u. S. Policy be here . Unfortunately there is little which there are very few the u. S. Can do. Possible alternatives. Mobilizing troops to venezuela it is a very delicate moment. I want to stress again, the requires time and effort and we havent seen that in the last president wants to see a couple of months. And i dont expect that to peaceful transfer of power from change. To be honest, i believe that maduro to guaido. This is a fight for venezuelans. That possibility still exists if enough figures depart from the regime and support the im happy to see the scenes in opposition. And that is what we would like the sense that people are coming to see. We want to see the defense out to the streets, but it will minister, the chief judge of the require a lot of effort. It wont be easy for sure. Do you see the events that Supreme Court and the are unfolding today and believe that they are potentially, you president ial guard. What happens if guaido is not know, catastrophic for the able to take power, what is the maduro regime or is this more of next step . Well, i think that it is the same . Possible this situation could persist. I think the people have shown probability thly this is thet they are prepared to protect threat since 2002 when a coup guaido. We dont see any indication that toppled chavez for a couple days. There is any substantial part of we havent seen members of the the military that is ready to armed forces yet rising up in fire on innocent civilians, arms like we have seen today. But we dont know the extent of the up rising. Their fellow country mmen. We know that the thugs, the so far we have some information that members of the National Motorcycle gangs that the cubans guard and Intelligence Services have put together are out are part uprising. Protecting certain buildings we havent seen yet members of controlled by maduro. Not the military. The military or air force or navy taking part of this. This really demonstrates the depths remember that high ranking officials are deeply involved in regime has sunk, that they are corruption, so it is very unlike using these cuban directed thugs throw expect them to defect the to conduct their affairs and why regime. And the troops are being watched i think there is public support for guaido. By Cuban Security forces. It needs to bs trane translateda there are thousands of cuban transition of power. Operatives embedded in the armed is the u. S. Prepared to use forces in venezuela. It is very difficult for the military option . Let me say two things. Troops even if they want to do so, it is very difficult to numbering o coordinate an uprising like this number one, we want the peaceful transfer of power. One. Interesting. But i will say again as the president has said from the jonathan, lets talk about the broad political picture here. Outset, and that Nicolas Maduro we brought up marco rubio who and those supporting him has been so involved in this and particularly those not in venezuela should know is all focused on it and he now has his options are on the table. Own security detail we believe related to all of these issues. But this also comes as a president ial campaign is heating [ inaudible question ] say that again . Up with accusations of socialism and socialists flying all around. Can the u. S. Provide any you have a president who hasnt taken military intervention . Support other than defensive venezuela off the table. Support . Were providing support in a how do you see this playing into variety of respects. Certainly we have done our broader political debate . Everything we can to get first of all, you are right on that exact point, that humanitarian assistance into the country. Were doing a lot of other socialism has become a point things, some of which im not during this campaign. Going to talk about, and were certainly working with the lima backing up what hans said, the president himself has not group, organization of american weighed in. States, the other 50 countries a number of senior officials that support guaidos legitimacy have, pence, pompeo, john bolton democratically. Have all tweeted or said words and let me answer the last part of your question, this is of encouragement, that they do clearly not a coup. Believe that they are backing up we recognize guaido as the this movement in venezuela, they legitimate interim president of venezuela. And just as it is not a coup dont believer maduro should be in power so they are staying when the president of the united away from that coup phrase. States gives an order to the but at this point the u. S. Is department of defense, it is not not looking to intervene a coup for guaido to try to take militarily. The president has not taken it command of the venezuela off the table. It has been on the table for military. Nearly two years. Ambassador, you said all options are on the table. And i wanted to ask you about Different Military action, was i remember beingedmember being with the president and he it a mistake invading iraq . Mentioned a military option at as ive said before, i have a the venezuela could be on the lot of opinions ive expressed table. And nikki haley physically over many years in the public reacted because it seemed like space. Those were my opinions. What im speaking about now is the policy of the u. S. It was a surprise to her. But i do think that democratic government and ive answered the candidates will start being asked about this, they will have to start to weigh in. Question. Do you feel this moment that we know where marco rubio were this is sort of a building stands. But well hear from vice block or do you think that it is president biden, even someone the moment, the Tipping Point as like a mayor pete who comes to to where something needs to this with Foreign Policy credentials and will have to make the case that he can make happen . These decisions on a world stage i think from the perspective of the humanitarian crisis that we face in venezuela, i hope as well. All right. This is enough to tip maduro out everyone has been looking at live pictures there of what is of power because it is only when going on in venezuela. Well keep an eye on all of this he and his fellow klepto craps and keep you updated. Who have plundered the thank you all very much for your venezuelan economy are removed insights today. From power that we can put the still ahead, new polling venezuelan economy back on its shows joe biden surging. Feet for the benefit of the plus why he says his message people. The sooner maduro is gone, the will be make america moral sooner is the possibility of again. Also ahead, the president for the venezuelan people. Versus new york. Governor andrew cuomo, a familiar go for this president , were you surprised at joins me live to respond to todays action . Trumps claim that new york has were you given a heads up . The nra under siege. But first, chuck and nancy there are reports from venezuela go back to the white house that some of the military because it turns out this time officials supposed to support it is really infrastructure week. Its tough to quit smoking guaido actually backed away. Ill just say we feel very cold turkey. So chantix can help you quit well informed about what is slow turkey. Going on and the point i was along with support, making a moment ago by naming chantix is p
