BBC: Venezuelans 'live in dictatorship' under Maduro, says Juan Guaidó
Venezuela's opposition leader has told the BBC that people are living in a "dictatorship", and renewed his calls for fresh elections.
Juan Guaidó declared himself interim leader last week and has been recognised by more than 20 countries, including the US.
President Nicolás Maduro retains the support of Russia, which has accused the US of "illegal" interference.
At least 40 people are believed to have died in recent unrest, the UN says.
