USA Kabuki Show, Featuring Venezuela.Got oil? It was clear exactly a year ago that the West would speak of election fraud after the elections in Venezuela. The USA has spent a lot of money because it finally wants control over Venezuelan oil. The media campaign now underway about Venezuela has been prepared for a long time.
Exactly a year ago, at the beginning of August 2023, I already reported on what scenario the US-led West would launch after the elections in Venezuela. The USA has bred the Venezuelan opposition candidates with a lot of money, which is why the Western media are now dutifully reporting on election fraud after the election. Der Spiegel did this in several articles, one of which had the headline “ Presidential elections in Venezuela – With the audacity of the autocrat ” and in which one could read, among other things, the following:
“The popular Machado, whose candidacy had been banned by the electoral justice system on flimsy grounds, had been driving around the country for weeks with ex-diplomat González; he had stepped into the breach for her as a candidate.”
The opposition was bred by the USA
But who is the Venezuelan politician Maria Corina Machado, who Der Spiegel claims was “banned from taking part in the election on flimsy grounds”? by the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) with millions of dollars since at least 2004 What Der Spiegel fails to mention in its articles about the lady is that she and her political movement Súmate have been funded . The NED orchestrates pro-American coups around the world and has been involved in all pro-American coups and coup attempts around the world over the past 30 years, more information can be found here .
In addition, Machado supports US sanctions against Venezuela. She was therefore banned from participating in elections because, firstly, she openly supports measures that harm Venezuela but are in the interests of another country (the USA), and secondly, because she has been openly funded by another country (the USA) for many years , trained and supported.
She got off lightly by simply banning her from taking part in elections and not putting her in prison, because if a German politician, for example, had his party financed with millions by the Chinese or Russian state, he would have to expect that to be accused of illegal party financing and, in the worst case, to end up in prison.
indirectly a year ago in Spiegel, which reported on the lady at the time The fact that the lady is drumming for the goals of the USA was also revealed :
“If she had her way, a future government would privatize the state oil company PDVSA, in which a series of corruption cases recently came to light. In their eyes, legal certainty is needed, also to attract foreign investors to the country.”
That's exactly what the US oil companies want: They want the state-owned oil company PDVSA to be privatized so that they can then take it over as "foreign investors" for a fraction of its value, justifying the high price discount with supposedly necessary billions in investments would. This would give them the rights to exploit the Venezuelan oil fields - and Venezuela is, after all, one of the countries with the largest oil reserves in the world.
Machado is not concerned with legal certainty, she is concerned with privileges for US corporations. However, the Spiegel reader does not find out about this.
Instead, the Spiegel reader learns that the lady is supposedly very popular in Venezuela and that President Maduro stole the election victory from her.
The topic of Venezuela will probably concern us more often in the coming days and weeks, as the last attempted coup by Guaido, organized by the USA there in 2019, showed.
For information, I am translating an article from the Russian news agency TASS about the topic. The article is worded a bit awkwardly because it is a guest article by a professor, but the man is an expert on Latin America and therefore the content of the article is very interesting.
Start of translation:
Elections In Venezuela: The US Tactic To Disintegrate The Region In The Active Phase.
Alexander Stepanov on attempts by foreign forces to destabilize the situation in Venezuela and divide the unity of Caracas' allies in the region.
The elections in Venezuela are another pretext to consolidate the emerging turning point and reinforce the disintegration processes on the continent. Proponents of US policies to maintain their hegemony in the region unanimously promote narratives about the need to ensure “transparent and democratic elections” in Venezuela, favoring the legitimacy of opposition forces from the start. De facto attempts are being made to overthrow the constitutional order by force with foreign participation.
The pioneer of this rhetoric, Argentine President Javier Milei, is directly pushing for a coup involving the military in his social media posts: “The data shows a magnificent victory for the opposition and the world is waiting for [the Maduro government] to defeat admits <…>. “Argentina will not accept any further deception and hopes that this time the armed forces will defend democracy and the will of the people.”
The message is unmistakable, the addressee is the Venezuelan military. However, patriotism is high among representatives of the Venezuelan armed forces, and the efficiency of the General Directorate of Military Counterintelligence of Venezuela (DGCIM) made it possible to preemptively remove American agents and destructive opposition figures from the ranks and environment of the Ministry of Defense.
In general, it should be noted that the electoral process in Venezuela is secured at the highest level, although illegal armed groups sponsored by US intelligence services still operate in the border area with Colombia and act as proxies to exert violent pressure on Caracas and in the Venezuelan states to carry out acts of sabotage at the border.
However, back to the outer circle. The conductor, as always, is Anthony Blinken, the US Secretary of State, who, as always, in his usual manner, occasionally slipping into an arrogant tone, calls on the Ibero-American community to condemn Caracas. He spreads "serious concerns" in the media that the presidential election results announced by the Venezuelan government "do not reflect the will of the people."
The “will of the Venezuelan people” is of course more visible from Washington, especially considering that the main trigger of the protests - the US Embassy in Caracas - has long been closed and the most important information from the US State Department and the secret services now probably coming from the agents of influence embedded in the radical opposition and from the media.
Attempts to interfere
For its part, the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry said that nine Latin American countries had tried to interfere in the elections “in order to distort the peaceful expression of will.” At the same time, Venezuela's real allies in the region (including Bolivia, Honduras, Cuba and Nicaragua), which have also taken the path of fighting for their own sovereignty and national interests, congratulated Nicolas Maduro on his victory. The principle of “divide et impera” (“divide and rule”), which characterizes Washington’s policy in Latin America, is in effect.
But there are a number of signs that the hegemon is losing its former influence on its southern borders: from China's growing trade and economic cooperation with partners in the region to the largest megaprojects in modern history in energy and logistics to the Strengthening Russia's military and military-technical cooperation with its traditional allies on the South American continent and promoting high-tech solutions in the field of peaceful use of nuclear energy.
A reshaping of the geopolitical landscape of Latin America and the Caribbean is inevitable, including by further reaffirming the legitimacy of official Caracas and strengthening Venezuela's position throughout the region.
Guaido 2.0 “in a hurry”
Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, a political newcomer, a rather unambitious university professor who had not previously been seen in the active life of the opposition, suddenly moved to the forefront of the political fight as the opposition's main candidate for the country's presidency.
Gonzalez was on the ballot of the United Platform, a coalition of Venezuela's main opposition parties, but until April of this year he never thought he would run for president.
The reason for this was the legal short-sightedness of the coordinators of the protest movement, who did not take into account the ruling of the Supreme Court of the country against the opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, which bans the lady from running for public office for 15 years.
The last two months have been very different for Gonzalez than his previous activism. He gave boring political speeches, shook hands with strangers and waved to audiences from the roofs of trucks where he was carelessly placed by courageous opposition volunteers.
Gonzalez resembles a simplified version of former Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido, who has been ignominiously forgotten. Like his predecessor, Gonzalez bears all the external and non-public signs that suggest he is a creature of foreign curators.
Gonzalez's behavior suggests that he himself is not fully aware of his role as a "powerful battering ram" of the current administration.
The escaped embezzler Guaido
On December 22, 2022, deputies in the Venezuelan opposition assembly voted in first reading to dismiss the “interim government” led by Juan Guaido.
In October 2023, Venezuelan law enforcement authorities issued an arrest warrant for Guaido, who had fled to the United States.
Guaido is accused of “intentionally and negligently squandering assets of Petróleos de Venezuela SA (PDVSA), which resulted in numerous losses and by the US system itself with the recent revelation by a Delaware court of the use of more than 19 billion dollars was confirmed by the suspect for personal purposes.”
However, even with this candidate, things are not that easy when you look at his biography. Gonzalez began his career as assistant to the Venezuelan ambassador to the United States, then continued his diplomatic work in Belgium and El Salvador, served as Venezuelan ambassador to Algeria, and at the end of his term became ambassador to Argentina.
With the coming to power of Hugo Chavez in 1999 and the new attempt to achieve national sovereignty, among other things, the personnel in the country's main institutions were renewed, with particular attention being given to the Foreign Ministry and the diplomats who had special feelings for the West became. At this point, Gonzalez apparently came up with the tantalizing idea of seeking revenge at some point in the future. Such disgruntled subjects are at the forefront of Langley's foreign curators of opposition.
However, Gonzalez's hidden ambitions (even according to the opposition's assessment) were at odds with his actual potential and character. Despite Gonzalez's loud claims that he will "put an end to 25 years of Venezuelan rule under a policy that Chavez described as socialism for the 21st century," the way the ex-diplomat spoke throughout the whole thing conveyed the message election campaign and held public appearances, uncertainty.
His characteristic subdued tone of voice and impassive facial expression, acquired over years of careful diplomatic work, do not fit the image of an energetic politician that opposition voters are accustomed to.
The U.S. intelligence community's habit of relying on weak-willed performers is becoming increasingly prevalent. Let's remember Zelensky and the mostly genderless Eurocrats. It is not difficult to attribute to them the responsibility for destabilizing the domestic political situation in a country, with the main actors being people specially trained and prepared for this purpose.
Despite the facelessness of the protest potential, provocations and influencing the situation in Venezuela with indispensable foreign participation and financial support cannot be ruled out. It is easier to blame one's own mistakes in planning coups on the weak-willed. At least this tendency can now be demonstrated in the CIA's methodology.
