"think chavez managed to fuck the country up himself before he died without the usa,s help.Mr corbyn,s hero, a few years back it was his vision for the uk." So nothing to do with the sanctions the USA placed on Venezuela in 2014... "Venuazela is not only inthis state but back terrorism,raies money through drug sales,etc.As well as starving and killing there own people thay are a threat to the whole of the Americas,yes for once Trump is 100% right" More bullshit. The terrorist is the US state. Just like in Iran the USA is looking to topple the government by any means and install a puppet government. And what do Iran and Venezuela have in common? They both have massive oil reserves that they have refused to allow the US petrochemical industry to exploit and profit from. FFS there is even a video of Trump saying that the US should ferment, fund and support an insurrection in those countries then effectively invade and take 50 or 75% of the oil in payment and that the people will thank the US (and that is what should have been done in Libya). | |||

"More meddling in another country's affairs... again!! Surely they must either know the destruction that could follow from iraq to the Ukraine and yet meddling again. " We should not be getting involved there. Just leave them to sort their own affairs out. Venezuela should be left alone as an example of what Jeremy Corbyn thinks is a good way to run a country. | |||

"I'm not against meddling. Provided we do it to protect people. Unfortunately we do it to further "National Interests" As a Veteran of Iraq (2), I've no desire to see the UK meddle in other countries affairs anymore. I have zero Faith in either political party to do the right thing anymore. Just line their own pockets by risking other people's lives. I find disgusting that it's done in our name, yet we rarely get a say in it. Bringing terrorism and destruction to our own people, as well as destroying other nations entirely." Peaceful so far. Just hope it stays that way | |||

I was letting you know that the USA is the largest exporter of oil in the world so there's no real geopolitical interest for the United States on that front!. Unfortunately I'm willing to concede to you that the corporation's of America and the EU have an interest in it, corporations in reality these days are the shadow government, they control all wars, all TV, all papers, all radio, all internet, all books, all vaccines, all medicine, all water supplies, electric and most importantly they nearly have every politican in they're pockets... Nick raise your students fees clegg gets a 7 million dollar house and a nice big fat job with Facebook. There are no good politicans bad politicans, no left or right, it's all a stage and we're all players. | |||

"The US does have an interest in other nations oil reserves.. they like to control the price." . They don't control the price, the price is set by OPEC and then by thousands of people in stock exchanges. Venezuela is a member of OPEC the USA is not. | |||

This we can agree on, when I said there's no geopolitical interest for the US I meant US citizens. Governments of the world are massively corrupt and have been for decades, in many ways they work against the interests of their own citizens never mind Venezuelans. | |||

I hate that citizens are tainted by their countries foreign policy. This may sound very odd, but I empathise with the Islamic terror movement! Bear in mind I served in Iraq and lived in the Middle East for most of my childhood. So I'm more qualified to speak about empathy in this matter than most (before you jump down my throat). I don't support it, I don't sympathise with it, I empathise, I can put myself in the shoes of an Islamic Fundamentalist and see how they view what we do, how we operate as a Society. It doesn't justify what they do, the innocent blood they spill. But if we're going to get the blame for meddling in other Nations politics, because we live in "Democracies" Then we'd better start acting like it and exercising our right to vote. Force our Government to listen. Teach our children politics, teach them that bullying other nations is no different than bullying you school mates. We need to behave like a Nation that gives a fuck. Get out of bed with Saudi and Chins and get into bed with nations that genuinely need our assistance and share our views on what is the fair, just and honest way to live, breath and be. | |||

No. Saudi is rich because it has vast oil reserves that it's worked alongside the US to develop. Alongside Qatar, Bahrain and the UAE (whose reserves have since dried up and are now pimping themselves out). The rulers of these nations control their people with an iron fists. Most nationals in places like Qatar don't even have to work anymore. Venezuela, in stark contrast doesn't have the same infrastructure and investment. It did during the 60s/70s and 80s. Till the Gulf blew up. Venezuela was then dropped like a stone. Venezuela is a massive nation of vastly different people. Most of whom live in poverty in Barrios outside the cities. Or in rural poverty. Chavez forced socialism onto the Venezuelans. Twisted words, bribed and lied to get what he wanted. Anytime a Socialist state pops up, the powers that be cut off all ties with those nations. Cutting off their access to resources and world banking, using the press to manipulate it into the old "Red Enemy" In fairness real socialism has never been given the chance it deserves, because Capitalism attacks it with every tool it has at its disposal. USSR, Cuba, China and Venezuela aren't exactly prime examples of a communist/socialist state functioning very well, but they're the few examples we have to go on. They were/are Dictatorships, how is that a Socialist model? I think if you ask most Venezuelans on the street how they feel right now. All they want is a bit more financial fairness, a little more equality and a chance to improve their lot. It's not a big ask is it? | |||

"Iran not involved in terrorism? You're having a laugh right, they're as bad as Saudi. " The UNLOS is a perfect example of how well conditioned the vast majority of people in the west are... The Venezuelan President must be overthrown or the country invaded (by the USA) because there are children in danger of starving. The USA says, so the rest of the West says. So it must be true. Really? If that is the case how come the USA has not sent troops to Yemen? There are children dying of starvation every day there. How come the USA supplies arms to the country (Saudi) that is bombing civilians every day in Yemen? Oh yes, because the USA says Iran are terrorists, because the USA say so. Anyone care to tell me how many Iranians were involved in 9/11? Anyone like to name a single international terrorist attack carried out by Shia Islamists? To my knowledge there is no such beast, all fundamentalist Islamic terrorist attacks are carried carried out by Wahhabi Salafist Muslims who are funded by Saudi. To my knowledge the only 'terrorists', according to the USA and Israel, Iran supports are Hezbollah. And as I understand it the USA supports, arms and guarantees the security of Israel while Israeli snipers who are killing women and children in Gaza nearly every day and has been starving the population for years. And why? Because Hezbollah is the elected government in Gaza. However Venezuela and Iran do have a few things in common. Both have massive proven oil reserves. Both have refused to let the USA, (through their petrochemical industry), exploit their countries and profit from their wealth. Both have refused to use the US Petro$ to sell their oil, thus propping us the US$ in the international money markets. | |||

That they don't assist Russia in its Regime Change and Black Operations warfare.. Like we are the US stooge. Venezuela has been a puppet state to US oil for decades. They're the only South American Nation who don't have football as a national sport. They're so American it's Baseball! There are no similarities.

"think chavez managed to fuck the country up himself before he died without the usa,s help.Mr corbyn,s hero, a few years back it was his vision for the uk. Well apart from the sanctions placed upon them. Just like that other country they didn’t like Cuba." There were no sanctions against Venezuela until this year. There has been sanctions against individual leaders but no national sanctions. | |||

"More meddling in another country's affairs... again!! Surely they must either know the destruction that could follow from iraq to the Ukraine and yet meddling again. We should not be getting involved there. Just leave them to sort their own affairs out. Venezuela should be left alone as an example of what Jeremy Corbyn thinks is a good way to run a country. " Whilst I'm inclined to agree, although not the bit about being an example - that would be a terrible reason not to intervene. I do think we should take sides and make it clear that we do not support the present illegal and illegitimate resume. We can do that without sending in any military. As for Trump and the US, on this one I would back Trump before I would back Muduro in pretty much any situation. | |||

"Bottom line - should the usa alliance, including uk interfere and incite unrest in other countries? Are we entitled to do that, considering the American investigation into possible Russian interference in elections? " Bottom line - the unrest is being caused by Muduro, not the US, Trump or us. I don't see anything wrong with us or the US taking the side of the democrat in this dispute who, and let's be clear about this, is in a party internationally aligned with the British Labour party. | |||

"So Hezbollah and the various militias Iran operates or funds in its neighbouring nations aren't terrorist activities then? That they don't assist Russia in its Regime Change and Black Operations warfare.. Like we are the US stooge. Venezuela has been a puppet state to US oil for decades. They're the only South American Nation who don't have football as a national sport. They're so American it's Baseball! There are no similarities. Iran's hostility is due to US and Colonial interference through the centuries and decades. Venezuelans ARE dying and going hungry. I know, because we're still friends with the people we met there. They didn't vote for a Dictatorship. " You must be joking! Hezbollah is the legitimate, freely elected government and representatives of the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, the terrorists in the area are the IDF snipers who brutalise and kill at will and have been terrorising the Gaza Strip for decades. As for what you 'know' from your friends in the country, I have one question for you: Do you know their politics? You will find the reason for my question if you bother to read my replies to Cracken and final comments. "There were no sanctions against Venezuela until this year. There has been sanctions against individual leaders but no national sanctions. " Not so, there have been US sanctions against Venezuela since 2014. "Bottom line - the unrest is being caused by Muduro, not the US, Trump or us. I don't see anything wrong with us or the US taking the side of the democrat in this dispute who, and let's be clear about this, is in a party internationally aligned with the British Labour party." I think you need to do some reading and find out exactly who we and the US have just recognised as the de-facto leader of Venezuela and take a look at the record of his party. You point at Muduro and claim he is some sort of beast and by implication are happy for our government to support placing in power the most violent of extreme right wing organisations who have a record of burning to death those that oppose them and fall into their hands. | |||

" One man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter. Whilst I empathise with the Palestinian cause. I think Hezbollahs methods are brutal and cruel. Much like the Israeli regime that control the region with an iron fist. Just because Israelis act like they do, it doesn't justify car bombs and missiles strikes, hostage situations at international venues involving totally innocent people. Hezbollah use terrorism, because they're unable to take it to the Israeli Armed Forces in a conventional battle. As for my friends. They're a little apolitical like me. It's above them, not in their power to control. They're suffering though, but time, so surely that's still relevant, regardless of their political stance? | |||

Hezbollah is the military arm of Hamas but because of the situation in Gaza the 2 have become so intertwined everyone forgets what Hezbollah is in reality. | |||

Hypocrisy at its worst! "Let's be clear. I'm not backing US, UK or European military intervention. What am backing and saying is that we should give our moral support to the democrat, not the dictator, in this dispute. I'm also saying that, just because Trump is backing the democrat in this dispute does not mean that we shouldn't. I also question this story of massive US sanctions against Venezuela being the cause of the problem. As far as I know there have been no national sanctions against Venezuela until this year. And I'm still waiting for some information relating to the accusations of violence, death, sabotage and burning people alive by Guaido. I have posted about Saudi in the past and agree that our and the US's relationship with that country is wrong. However that has nothing to do with Venezuela. | |||

"Just seen on tv where a tory clsimed in parliament that Venezuelas economic problems couldn't be because of the oil embargo, because it has just been implemented. Didnt mention other sanctions have been in place since March 2015 " The sanctions in place prior to this year were not national sanctions but individual sanctions against various leaders in Venezuela. There is no way they would cause the sort of economic problems Venezuela is now facing. Just because Tories and Trump are on the right and Murdua is meant to be from the left does not mean he is right and they are wrong. | |||

"Finally, people who realise that the suffering Venezuelans are enduring is because of SANCTIONS! The cannot feed the people because they cannot import goods because of US Sanctions, which various US Allies support! They cannot sell their oil because of US led SANCTIONS!

There have been no national sanctions applied against Venezuela until February 2019 by the US or anyone else. | |||

There were no sanctions applied by the US or anyone else against Venezuela in 2014. There were some sanctions applied against individual members of the Venezuelan Govetment in March 2015. There have been no national sanctions on trade or oil applied against Venezuela at all until this month (February 2019). They are the facts.

All the right ring politicians are campaigning at the border who are in favour of dictatorship. Even the Chilean president who is backed by people who supported facism are pretending to help the people, when he doesn't look after his own people. You can see through their fakeness. | |||

"Socialism, an idea so good you have to tear gas your own citizens not to leave!." I'm no socialist but, to be fair, this is not about socialism or capitalism. It's about democracy or dictatorship. In fact Guaido is a socialist and his party is aligned with Corbyn's Labour party. The problem is is that some left of center supports hate Trump so much (something I share with them) that they're giving their backing to anyone who stands up to him without really looking at the issues. Unfortunately in this case that is leading them to back Maduro and his dictatorship. | |||

" what does my politics have to do with any of the facts?.... those are the events of what has happened in this case... the UN didn't ratify the elections as being free or fair... all the other south american countries doesn't recognise maudro as president... and he can say what he wants... but he is stopping again from coming into his country that may have stopped the 3 million that have left the country in the last 12 months for camps in colombia and brazil in the first place..... | |||

"Socialism, an idea so good you have to tear gas your own citizens not to leave!. I'm no socialist but, to be fair, this is not about socialism or capitalism. It's about democracy or dictatorship. In fact Guaido is a socialist and his party is aligned with Corbyn's Labour party. The problem is is that some left of center supports hate Trump so much (something I share with them) that they're giving their backing to anyone who stands up to him without really looking at the issues. Unfortunately in this case that is leading them to back Maduro and his dictatorship." Do you agree with USA foreign intervention? It should be for Venezuelans to sort out and the un peacekeeping if violence breaks out. I agree that socialist or capitalism is irrelevant. | |||

"think chavez managed to fuck the country up himself before he died without the usa,s help.Mr corbyn,s hero, a few years back it was his vision for the uk. So nothing to do with the sanctions the USA placed on Venezuela in 2014... Venuazela is not only inthis state but back terrorism,raies money through drug sales,etc.As well as starving and killing there own people thay are a threat to the whole of the Americas,yes for once Trump is 100% right More bullshit. The terrorist is the US state. Just like in Iran the USA is looking to topple the government by any means and install a puppet government. And what do Iran and Venezuela have in common? They both have massive oil reserves that they have refused to allow the US petrochemical industry to exploit and profit from. FFS there is even a video of Trump saying that the US should ferment, fund and support an insurrection in those countries then effectively invade and take 50 or 75% of the oil in payment and that the people will thank the US (and that is what should have been done in Libya).
You can put as many s as you like under his comments but they're still bullshit.
There were no sanctions applied by the US or anyone else against Venezuela in 2014. There were some sanctions applied against individual members of the Venezuelan Govetment in March 2015. There have been no national sanctions on trade or oil applied against Venezuela at all until this month (February 2019). They are the facts.
How do you explsin Bolton, who's admitted the US has interest in Venezuelas mineral wealth. Guido daid hed sell off to foreign companies and lrt in the IMF who will screw the citizens
But maybe I’m wrong. Possibly; US intervention will work out great after fucking it up like it did in Syria,
and Yemen,
and Iraq,
and Iran,
and Afghanistan,
and Chile,
and Honduras,
and Haiti,
and Somalia,
and Libya,
and Guatemala,
and Nicaragua,
and Colombia,
and Panama,
Maybe this time it'll work out
Btw, Bolton mentioned Nicaragua could be next
Why do I need to explain what Bolton says?
The argument I'm opposing is that US or other countries sanctions have caused the problems in Venezuela. How can that be true as prior to this month (February 2019) there have been no national sanctions against Venezuela imposed by the US or anyone else?

But maybe I’m wrong. Possibly; US intervention will work out great after fucking it up like it did in Syria,
and Yemen,
and Iraq,
and Iran,
and Afghanistan,
and Chile,
and Honduras,
and Haiti,
and Somalia,
and Libya,
and Guatemala,
and Nicaragua,
and Colombia,
and Panama,
Maybe this time it'll work out
Btw, Bolton mentioned Nicaragua could be next
Why do I need to explain what Bolton says?
The argument I'm opposing is that US or other countries sanctions have caused the problems in Venezuela. How can that be true as prior to this month (February 2019) there have been no national sanctions against Venezuela imposed by the US or anyone else?
Ive got 21 may 2018.

They where not national sanctions, they where individuals sanctions intended to stop Mr. Maduro and his government from using a strategy they have pursued in the past to raise cash by selling debt of at a few cents to the dollar and to strip individuals in the Venezuelan Govetment of their ability to siphon money from the failing economy. No sanctions on the trading of goods, including oil, have been applied until this month (February 2019)
Then let's trace back why there are huge inflations. Maybe there were no national sanction. But I'm sure external parties have caused this.
How can you be SURE? I believe the huge inflammation has been caused by bad Govetment policy, as it is in most countries. However I don't know for SURE. What I do know for SURE is that it was not caused by economic sanctions imposed by the US or anyone else because, prior to this month (February 2019), there were no sanctions being applied.
Are you SURE Guaido has the majority of support from Venezuelans, and what entitles him to be the intrim (for how long?) president just because the USA say so?
"I've not claimed at any point I'm SURE about anything except that Venezuela is not in the mess it's in because of US sanctions because, up until this month 0(February 2019) there haven't been any. That being said it seems that Maduro tried to change the constitution of the country to remain in power beyond his legal term. He is not Governing or in power in accordance with his own counties law. | |||

The terrorist is the US state. Just like in Iran the USA is looking to topple the government by any means and install a puppet government. And what do Iran and Venezuela have in common? They both have massive oil reserves that they have refused to allow the US petrochemical industry to exploit and profit from. FFS there is even a video of Trump saying that the US should ferment, fund and support an insurrection in those countries then effectively invade and take 50 or 75% of the oil in payment and that the people will thank the US (and that is what should have been done in Libya).

Ive got 21 may 2018.
https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2018/05/21/us/politics/trump-maduro-venezuela-sanctions.amp.html
They where not national sanctions, they where individuals sanctions intended to stop Mr. Maduro and his government from using a strategy they have pursued in the past to raise cash by selling debt of at a few cents to the dollar and to strip individuals in the Venezuelan Govetment of their ability to siphon money from the failing economy. No sanctions on the trading of goods, including oil, have been applied until this month (February 2019)
Then let's trace back why there are huge inflations. Maybe there were no national sanction. But I'm sure external parties have caused this.
How can you be SURE? I believe the huge inflammation has been caused by bad Govetment policy, as it is in most countries. However I don't know for SURE. What I do know for SURE is that it was not caused by economic sanctions imposed by the US or anyone else because, prior to this month (February 2019), there were no sanctions being applied.
Are you SURE Guaido has the majority of support from Venezuelans, and what entitles him to be the intrim (for how long?) president besides the USA?
One thing for sure is the US has been meddling in the affairs of Venezuela for 20 years.If it was just another banana republic they wouldn't give a toss.We all know what's is so precious about Venezuela and that's petrodollars...
We don't know that for sure either, although you may be correct. The only thing we do know for sure is that the original reason given by those supporting Mudaro, that the problems in Venezuela were caused by US sanctions isn't true and that those who put it forward are either lying or have not looked into the facts before reaching their conclusions and deciding who to give their backing to in this crisis.
We absolutely do know they've been meddling in Venezuela.They meddle in just about every country in the region that shows dissent against the US.
You seem to be getting believe, supposition and knowledge intermixed. We don't know that the US has meddled in Venezuelan affairs for 20 years. We may believe that they have and we may suppose that they have but, unless there is evidence, we don't know that they have.
As I keep saying, the only thing we do know is that Venezuela is not in the mess it's in due to US sanctions because, up and until this month (February 2019), there haven't been any.
Do you not consider it meddling when the U.S. says that another country’s president is not really the president?
But, according to Venezuelan law Mudaro is not president and is only still in power by making illegal changes to the Venezuelan Constitution. That's what the whole crisis is about. Mudaro is trying to stay in power beyond his legal term. Guaido is pushing for the proper implementation of the Venezuelan Constitution and the rule of law.
"Ill have a look into your claim about Venezuelan law. But in the meantime, why does the un support Maduro over Guaido? https://www.presstv.com/Detail/2019/02/01/587387/UN-reject-Guaido-cooperate-Maduro | |||

"think chavez managed to fuck the country up himself before he died without the usa,s help.Mr corbyn,s hero, a few years back it was his vision for the uk. So nothing to do with the sanctions the USA placed on Venezuela in 2014... Venuazela is not only inthis state but back terrorism,raies money through drug sales,etc.As well as starving and killing there own people thay are a threat to the whole of the Americas,yes for once Trump is 100% right More bullshit. The terrorist is the US state. Just like in Iran the USA is looking to topple the government by any means and install a puppet government. And what do Iran and Venezuela have in common? They both have massive oil reserves that they have refused to allow the US petrochemical industry to exploit and profit from. FFS there is even a video of Trump saying that the US should ferment, fund and support an insurrection in those countries then effectively invade and take 50 or 75% of the oil in payment and that the people will thank the US (and that is what should have been done in Libya).
You can put as many s as you like under his comments but they're still bullshit.
There were no sanctions applied by the US or anyone else against Venezuela in 2014. There were some sanctions applied against individual members of the Venezuelan Govetment in March 2015. There have been no national sanctions on trade or oil applied against Venezuela at all until this month (February 2019). They are the facts.
How do you explsin Bolton, who's admitted the US has interest in Venezuelas mineral wealth. Guido daid hed sell off to foreign companies and lrt in the IMF who will screw the citizens
But maybe I’m wrong. Possibly; US intervention will work out great after fucking it up like it did in Syria,
and Yemen,
and Iraq,
and Iran,
and Afghanistan,
and Chile,
and Honduras,
and Haiti,
and Somalia,
and Libya,
and Guatemala,
and Nicaragua,
and Colombia,
and Panama,
Maybe this time it'll work out
Btw, Bolton mentioned Nicaragua could be next

" A different approach to the American led Iraq invasion disaster based on lies is welcome as far as I'm concerned. Amazing how history can repeat itself. | |||

"Is this all about human rights and democracy? If so, then why aren't the USA not trying to overthrow the Saudi regime? They're not a democracy, human rights are virtually non existant, they can murder journalists, behead people because they're gay ffs and get completely away with it! why not start there with threats n sanctions? Instead of arse kissing them! I'd back them if they did but I do wonder if you would. I'm pretty sure you'd back anyone if they were anti US and particularly anti Trump, even Saudi. It seems a bit like whataboutery to me. That's your answer is it? Your wandering into bollocks territory yourself. The only bollocks on this thread has been by those supporting Maduro and trying to claim that the problems in Venezuela have been caused by US sanctions when no US sanctions actually existed until this month (February 2019). Being so totally wrong about such a fundamental and easily verifiable point does bring into question the rest of their assessments of the Venezuelan situation. " It is you who is talking bollocks , you do not know what you are talking about as regards Venezuela. You do not have a clue how the global political system works so i suggest you do some serious study, maybe you should do a phd like i did a number of years ago. The usa has been interfering in the internal affairs of Venezuela for years and has been destroying the economy bit by bit to try and install a puppet government. The us has no right to interfere and should stop interfering. | |||

All I'm saying is that, as no US sanctions have been applied against Venezuela until this month (February 2019) they can not, as has been alleged by Mudaro supporters on here, be the cause of Venezuela's economic collapse. As for your ad hominem arguments, if you want to believe that, because I've pointed out the very easily verifiable fact that US sanctions can not be cause of Venezuela's problems, therefore I don't know what I'm talking about; that's your choice but to me it looks like the boot is on the other foot. | |||

"Craken you show once again that your knowledge of politics is small. You are completely wrong to say that the usa has only just started to interfere with Venezuela when the truth is they have been involved for years and have slowly been collapsing the country from within. Sanctions are just one way the usa has used to collapse Venezuela, there are far better ways to collapse an economy and the usa are experts at it. You need to do alot more research into south american politics, you might learn something." I've made no comments at all about whether the US has only recently interfered in Venezuela, it may have been but the only firm allegations made by Mudaro's supporters on this thread is that Venezuela is suffering an economic crisis because of US imposed economic sanctions. As, up until this month (February 2019), there have not been any US economic sanctions that clearly can not be the cause of Venezuela's economic problems. If the actual cause of Venezuela's problems are due to some other action taken against Venezuela by the US, and it might be, then, rather than giving a general and totally unverifiably statement like "they have been involved for years", give some examples of what they have done and the source of the allegations so that we can check the veracity or otherwise of your claims. You can't expect people to just take your word for it, especially as the one example you have given, economic sanctions, has turned out to be completely false. | |||

It's one way. South American politics is a different ball game. See what happened in Chile. That was a success story to overturn a socialist government into an dictatorship. No sanctions were put but the CIA spent billions to ensure Allende was not going to get power. This was before he was elected and during his presidency. Look at history to see that the USA does not like pure socialism if it interferes with American businesses and they'll do anything to ensure they get it back. | |||

Murdao is the human rights abuser and, in all but name, the fascist and Guaido is a Social Democrat who's party is aligned with the British Labour Party. And I'll keep saying that just because Trump and/or the US is backing Guaido over Mudaro doesn't mean that the left, or any democrat, should have to back Mudaro's dictatorship. We should be backing Guaido, the democrat. | |||

I am not defending the Venezuelan government by the way. If there are human rights issues then it should be resolved. Pinochet impacted over 200,000 people through exile, torture and killing. Where the USA is still protecting some of the people involved. Many of the people in charge are protected in the US. The US never meddled with Pinochet during his time in charge. | |||
