The presence of Russian soldiers in Venezuela violates the country's constitution, Juan Guaido, the opposition leader recognized as interim president by the US and many of its allies, said Tuesday.

"It seems (the government of President Nicolas Maduro) doesn't trust its own troops, because it is importing others... once again violating the constitution," Guaido told lawmakers in the opposition-run National Assembly.

The legislature, sidelined by Maduro, asserts only it has the legal power to authorize foreign military missions in Venezuela.
