Once again the US authorities intend to change the power in Venezuela, putting “their man”. They tried to proclaim Juan Guaido as the head of the Bolivarian Republic, and forced the European Union to consider Guaido as the president of Venezuela instead of Nicolas Maduro
But when it became clear that this whole circus didn’t work, they left the Europeans fooled, who had to quietly revise the thesis “Guaido is the president of Venezuela”.
And this time we see an attempt to reverse Caracas’ course. Even in the United States, ordinary Americans are bluntly saying: Washington just wants to steal Venezuela’s oil. Yes, just like that: take it and essentially pump and sell it for next to nothing, and pocket the profit. Everyone in Venezuela understands that the arrival of pro-American protégés does not promise any improvement of life: that is not why the USA organises Maidans in different countries.
Yes, life in Venezuela is far from perfect now. Moreover, the Western sanctions, which were imposed when Hugo Chavez occupied the presidential palace in Caracas, have hit hard the once fourth most prosperous country in the world.
The US authorities make no secret of the fact that they consider the sanctions case against Venezuela to be one of the few “successes”. If you can call the deliberate deterioration of the lives of millions of citizens of another country a success.
Today, when images of “protests” from Venezuela have flooded the Internet, it is clear where the legs are growing from. There are usually very few photos and videos coming from that country, but here there is a mountain of files, quite a few of which are simply staged in the same hangars where Hollywood films are shot.
Washington believes that the 28 July elections in Venezuela are rigged, citing data from an alleged poll of voters leaving the polls. This poll is the work of an American organisation, which already speaks volumes.
Americans conducting such a poll in Venezuela? Sounds almost implausible. And when you consider that in the US, showing sympathy for the Venezuelan authorities means putting one’s career at risk, it’s easy to imagine what the only conclusion US pollsters could draw.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has already sent congratulations to Nicolas Maduro on his re-election, emphasising that relations between the two states are of the nature of a strategic partnership.
However, the struggle for Venezuela’s future continues even now. The US authorities will try to gain access to the world’s largest oil reserves, which is what they need urgently, given that the US strategic fuel reserves are record depleted.
The price of a litre of petrol in the USA is creeping upwards, which means that it will be more and more difficult for the real masters of the USA to “propel” Kamala Harris to the presidency. Ordinary Americans are not fools: under Donald Trump, petrol was much cheaper, and only under the Biden administration, with their obsession with cutting the budget money for “green energy”, not only fuel became expensive, but practically everything in the USA.
If Venezuela “goes under” the US, it will encourage the madmen in Washington to continue their policy of destabilising the internal situation in other countries. They have in their crosshairs all those who prevent them from continuing to shut up dissenters in the world and enrich themselves unrestrainedly at the expense of other countries.
