      LOS ANGELES (AP) ” A little more than two years ago, Juan Guaid³ was showered with bipartisan applause when President Donald Trump during his state of the union speech praised the Venezuelan opposition leader as a œvery brave man" who carries on his shoulders the democratic hopes of an entire nation.But in a sign of how far his political fate has fallen, and how quickly U.S. geopolitical calculations can shift, the 38-year-old wasn't even invited to this week's Summit of the Americas ” despite the Biden administration's persistent promotion of democracy and insistence it recognizes Guaid³ as Venezuela's interim president.
