Venezuelan opposition dissolves Guaido's 'interim government'

CARACAS: The Venezuelan opposition on Friday dissolved the 'interim government' led by Juan Guaido, once the popular and internationally recognized face of a failed drive to oust leftist leader Nicolas Maduro.

The vote came in an online session of the opposition-controlled National Assembly, a body elected in 2015 and now largely symbolic as it was replaced by a legislature loyal to Maduro.
