U.S. to Press Maduro With New UN Resolution on Venezuela

The draft resolution calls for the “immediate start of a political process leading to free, fair, and credible presidential elections,” according to a copy of the document seen by Bloomberg. The U.S. is trying to build upon growing international pressure on Maduro to cede power after President Donald Trump’s decision to recognize Juan Guaido -- the head of the national assembly -- as the interim president of Venezuela, a move that has since been followed by more than 30 governments worldwide.
