Like Cheney, Joe Biden was against Maduro's government from the beginning. In August 2017, Biden stated that ''the government of mature is a tomb of innocent people due to hunger in the country''. In November 2018, Biden ended up supporting and claiming that Guaidó was the legitimate president of Venezuela. In December 2018, with several allegations of fraud, Biden ended up supporting Guiadó's coup d'état that brought him to power.
After the coup that ripped off, Biden and Guaidó ended up getting closer and giving influence in the region, negotiated in oil in the country and managed to give enough money to recover Venezuela's economy together with UNESCO. Since then, the United States have ended up taking Venezuela off the ''axis of evil''
