Despite encouragement to resign as president when his first term expired on 10 January 2019, [[Nicolás Maduro]] inaugurated himself. This resulted in widespread condemnation, the National Assembly invoking a State of emergency, and nations removing their embassies from Venezuela. With their belief that his election was illegitimate, they claimed that by retaking power, Maduro was converting Venezuela into an illegal ''[[de facto]]'' dictatorship.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-venezuela-politics/venezuelas-maduro-starts-new-term-as-u-s-decries-him-as-usurper-idUSKCN1P40DH?il=0|website=Reuters|title=Venezuela's Maduro starts new term, as US describes him as "usurper"|access-date=10 January 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.el-nacional.com/noticias/mundo/alemania-apoya-para-que-asuma-poder_265634|title=Alemania apoya para que asuma poder|trans-title=Germany supports Assembly taking power off Maduro|website=El Nacional|access-date=10 January 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/01/peru-paraguay-recall-diplomats-maduro-inauguration-190110180310100.html|title=Peru, Paraguay, etc. recall diplomats after Maduro inauguration|website=Al Jazeera|access-date=10 January 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.asambleanacional.gob.ve/noticias/_an-se-declara-en-emergencia-ante-la-usurpacion-de-nicolas-maduro-en-el-cargo-de-la-presidencia-de-la|title=National Assembly declares State of Emergency with the usurpation of Maduro as President|website=Asamblea Nacional|access-date=10 January 2019|archive-date=11 January 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190111021840/http://www.asambleanacional.gob.ve/noticias/_an-se-declara-en-emergencia-ante-la-usurpacion-de-nicolas-maduro-en-el-cargo-de-la-presidencia-de-la|url-status=dead}}</ref>
