Fabiana Andreina Rosales Guerrero[1] (born 22 April 1992), also known as Fabiana Rosales de Guaidó,[2] is a Venezuelan journalist and social media human rights activist.[3] She is married to Juan Guaidó,[4] former disputed president of the National Assembly and claimant to the country's acting presidency in the Venezuelan presidential crisis.[5] She was considered by the White House to be the first lady of Venezuela,[6][7] but, following the dissolution of the interim government, is no longer.[8]

Family and education

Fabiana Andreína Rosales Guerrero was born on 22 April 1992 in the town of Tovar, Mérida State.[9] Her father, Carlos Rosales Belandria[5] was a farmer and her mother, Elsy Guerrero a journalist. As a child, she observed her mother's interviews and became interested in social issues. She assisted in running the family farm and decided to study journalism.[6] Her father died after having a heart attack in 2013, for which she blames the shortages in Venezuela.[6] Her cousin died similarly, because products for a blood transfusion could not be found.[5] In 2013, she graduated from Universidad Rafael Belloso Chacín with a degree in journalism and social communications.[10] She worked in Mérida state for a city council as a press officer, and later held a similar position after moving to Caracas.[11]

Rosales met Juan Guaidó at a youth rally,[6] and they married in 2013.[11] They have a daughter who was born in 2017.[9]

Political activism

During her university studies, Rosales began working for the opposition party Popular Will (Шаблон:Lang-es).[6] As a human rights activist, she had close to 150,000 followers on Instagram as of 26 January 2019.[3] She has stated that a motivating factor for her is that she does not "want [her] daughter to grow up wanting to leave Venezuela",[12] and that she is "working for [her] daughter to inherit a better country".[6]

During the Venezuelan presidential crisis, Guaidó was designated acting president by the Venezuelan National Assembly, contesting the legitimacy of Nicolás Maduro.[6] More than 50 governments have recognized Guaidó as the acting president of Venezuela,[13][14] which implicitly gives Rosales a claim to being the First Lady of Venezuela.[2][6][15] She told Reuters that spies and "pro-government armed groups" follow her and Guaidó.[11]

Foreign relations

The New York Times says Rosales is "emerging as a prominent figure in [Guaidó's] campaign to bring change to the crisis-wracked country".[6] She has assumed the role of international ambassador for the opposition, meeting with Venezuelan diaspora and regional leaders to solicit support for the opposition and her country.[6] Rosales started in Latin America, meeting with Martín Vizcarra and Sebastián Piñera, presidents of Peru and Chile respectively, in March 2019.[16]

On 27 March, she visited the White House to meet with US President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence.[16] She said that the crisis in Venezuela is serious, describing it as "freedom or dictatorship, life or death".[12] Trump said it was a "great honor to have the first lady of Venezuela".[6] From Washington, D.C., she went next to a meeting with Miami mayor Carlos A. Giménez, where she was given the key to Miami-Dade County.[17]

The Associated Press wrote that her "opponents have cast her recent tour as a desperate attempt to keep Guaido in the international spotlight", and quoted a diplomat from the Maduro administration, who said, "She is trying to boost Guaido's image, as support for his movement in Venezuela deflates".[6]
