Juan Guaidó was reportedly replaced as the head of Venezuela's National Assembly by Luis Parra after failing to secure enough votes for a new term. Despite U.S. media reports of a "blockade," evidence suggests Guaidó staged a fence-jumping incident for cameras while a legal quorum elected Parra inside. The U.S. State Department continues to recognize Guaidó as the interim president despite the legislative shift.
