Venezuela's opposition leader Juan Guaido faces a round of corruption accusations from both pro and anti government figures that might bring about his replacement as head of the country's Congress, also known as the National Assembly. The accusations are related to the millions of dollars that the United States have donated to the Venezuelan opposition aimed at struggling against the government of ruling President Nicolas Maduro, as some Guaido has kept most of this money to himself and his cronies.

Guaido has dismissed the accusations, claiming they are meant to obstruct his intention of being ratified as parliament speaker for one more year.

As the scandal goes on, many of his former collaborators have gone away
