CARACAS, VENEZUELA —
The team of Venezuela's opposition leader Juan Guaido is asking Citibank not to claim gold that was put up as collateral for a loan to the government
of President Nicolas Maduro in a swap expiring in March, lawmaker Angel Alvarado said Friday.
Investment bank and financial services company Citigroup, which owns Citibank, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The United States and close to 50 countries around the world have recognized Guaido as the country's legitimate leader.
