Kosovo, Albania recognise president legitimacy by opposition in Venezuela

Kosovo and Albania have recognised Juan Guaidon, rival of Venezuela's controversial president, Nicolas Maduro, as president of this state, along with many other allies of states in the world.

Kosovo Foreign Minister Behgjet Pacolli has said through a tweet post that the Government and the people of Kosovo support Guaido in restoring democracy in Venezuela.

Kosovo officially recognises Juan Guaidon as Venezuela's interim president. On behalf of the people and the Government of Kosovo for Guaido and the people of Venezuela: may we wish you all the best on the road to restoring democracy and support you until democracy returns”, Pacolli has said.

Meanwhile, Albania's Prime Minister Edi Rama has also said in a Twitter post that he wished Venezuela's <x0-banors to win over the evacuations of a non-legitimation force” that, according to him, has turned the state into hell for its people.

Guaido has staged massive protests on Wednesday through the streets of Venezuela's capital, Karaka, by which he has declared himself the task leader of the president's position.

However, the already disputed president, Nicolas Maduro, has continued to declare he considers himself president and has support from the military.

He has severed relations with the United States, since the latter have recognized the legitimacy of Guaido.

Maduro has led the country since 2013 and has sworn a second term this month.

He has won the elections in May 2018, though this process has been boycotted by the opposition.

Maduro has faced constant international criticism, as well as the opposition interiors, due to its policies in the field of human rights and as the economic situation in Venezuela. /Periscopi
