WASHINGTON _ The U.S. Agency for International Development is pushing back against claims by Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro that millions of U.S. aid dollars have gone to personally enrich his chief political rival, Juan Guaido, and his associates.
Guaido, recognized by the United States and 59 other nations as Venezuela's legitimate leader, has been in Washington this week for a series of high-level meetings with President Donald Trump, top U.S. administration officials and bipartisan congressional leadership.
He met with the USAID administrator, Mark Green, on Thursday to discuss the matter, Green told McClatchy in a phone interview.
