US National Security Adviser John Bolton said on Sunday that the United States plans to form a coalition to change the Venezuelan government, adding that Washington is not afraid to use the term "Monroe Doctrine" in Venezuela-related issues.
"We are trying to rally support for the peaceful transition of power from Maduro to Juan Guaido, whom we recognize as the president," Bolton said during an interview with CNN's program State of the Union.
"I'd like to see as broad a coalition as we can put together to replace Maduro. ... That's what we are trying to do," Bolton said.
