Venezuela opposition leader Juan Guaidó has traveled to Colombia to participate alongside Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in a regional counter-terrorism meeting.
Opposition leader Juan Guaido holds a session at a theater in the El Hatillo neighborhood after opposition lawmakers' vehicles were attacked by government supporters while driving to the National Assembly in downtown Caracas, Venezuela, Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2020. It's the second time this month that lawmakers have been barred from from the building that houses the only branch of government out of control of President Nicolas Maduro's government.

From Bogota, Guaidó plans to travel to Europe and then possibly the U.S., two people close to the opposition leader said. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss his travel plans. While Guaidó's itinerary in Europe is unknown, he'll be traveling there as President Donald J. Trump is scheduled to attend Jan. 21-22 the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. That could set the stage for a first meeting between Guaidó and Trump on the sidelines of the annual gathering of the world's business and political elite.
Colombian President Iván Duque welcomed Guaidó in a tweet on Sunday and said he would hold a"working meeting" with him later.
