Iran Press/Europe: EU foreign ministers would meet in Bucharest on Thursday to consider their next step, Le Drian told France's National Assembly.
Earlier, Britain, Spain, France, and Germany have warned Nicolas Maduro if he did not hold an election within eight days, they will recognize Juan Guaido as the country’s president, Iran Press reported.
Maduro has said that if they want elections, they should wait until 2025.
Venezuela plunged into a political crisis on 23 January when Juan Guaido declared himself the interim president of Venezuela.
Almost immediately, within a matter of hours, the Trump administration recognized Guaido as the 'legal president' of Venezuela and rejected Maduro’s government as illegal.
Certain countries including Argentina, Brazil, and Colombia, taking their cue from Washington, backed the self-declared president Guaido, and called for 'a transparent election' in Venezuela.
However, other countries including Iran, Russia, China, Bolivia, Cuba, Nicaragua, and Turkey threw their full weight behind Maduro, describing Guaido’s move as a coup attempt against the country’s legal government. 103
