Venezuela's opposition leader, Juan Guaido, (pictured) announced he defied a travel ban imposed by the country's Supreme Court and entered Colombia to attend a summit organized by Colombian President Gustavo Petro in Bogota.
Guaido intends to meet with international delegates attending Tuesday's summit, which is aimed at promoting dialogue between President Nicolas Maduro's government and the opposition led by Guaido. "I just arrived in Colombia, the same way millions of Venezuelans have done before me, on foot," Guaido stated.
The nation's highest court imposed the travel ban on Guaido in 2019 after freezing his bank accounts as part of an investigation into his activities. The probe concerns Guaido allegedly violating a "constitutional order."
