AI Summary:
Nicolás Maduro is set to be sworn in for a third term on Friday. The self-declared socialist has thrived on conflict since the late Hugo Chávez passed the torch of his Bolivarian revolution to his loyal aide in 2012. The challenges have ranged from a drone attack and mass protests over the collapse of the oil-rich economy. Maduro, a young lawmaker, helped push his agenda of redistributing the OPEC nation's oil wealth and political power. In 2006, Chávez appointed him foreign minister. He helped smooth over tensions with the U.S. After a short-lived coup. Juan Guaidó, the head of the National Assembly, is Venezuela's elected leader. After each crisis, Maduro emerged stronger, even if the country's problems deepened. By 2022, with his opponents vanquished, he took on a new nickname: Super Bigote. He entered the 2024 election with the same mindset.
