Talking about Bolivia, not Venezuela. It's pretty poorly-trained, crappy police, but they have uniforms and guns.

How are Venezuelan police so loyal then?

That's 2012, but I never said police wasn't corrupt. Just that there is some form of "law enforcement". Shit is still shit, though.

Venezuelan police is probably as loyal as they stay as least starving as possible. I dunno about their particular situation, but again, wouldn't be surprised if things were to turn around at any moment.

I'm sorry but please. Yes Germany and france may have better equipment then Russia, But they don't possess an ounce of the guts. And remember half of Europe gets their oil from Russian controlled territories. Who do I think will budge first Brussels or Moscow? Sorry I'll take moscow.

I don't want to go full "My Dad" here, but Russia has utter shit force projection and logistics. France and Germany are full of spineless cucks and shiftless muslims, but they do have LNG capable ports and could be supplied from the US. Poland is also in Russia's path to germany and they are one of the few NATO members meeting GDP defense spending requirements. No one on Russia's border likes them, and Russia would need to go through them to advance to Europe.

I think more the point: neither Russia nor the EU want a shooting war. It would be economically devastating to both no matter who 'won', and it would take a lot more than current geopolitical events to get one side to say "fuck it, YOLO" and escalate to that point.

By "syndicates", do mean "unions" or pro-government militias?

Either way, I agree with you entirely. Maduro still has the army, ~20% of people's support and support of foriegn powers with money and arms. This maybe a beginning, not an end.

Oh yes, my bad. I meant mostly unions, but most members of the PSUV are willing to take weapons and defend Maduro as well. They are waaaaay into this "we vs the world" mentality.

Like every other communist utopia unable to usurp an existing government, Rojava will just pull a revolutionary Catalonia and collapse under it's own incompetence while the Turks, Persians and Arabs all point and laugh.
 
Some lefties on my country are licking Maduro's boots already just to be contrarian to the United States. Did these people that Trump allowing a direct intervention like in Irak is political suicide? This is the primary example of people that glorifies socialist countries that they don't live on. Venezuela is probably going into full civil war in the following weeks: Maduro is too arrogant to surrender.

Erdogan and him are butt buddies out of a mutual fear of the American government and state propaganda in Turkey paints Venezuela as a paradise of allies against the perfidious Yankee despite Maduro and Erdogan having almost 100% oppositional political outlooks.

Why the fuck did Chavez pick Maduro as his successor, like seriously what the fuck made him so special?

Maduro was the best bootlicking toady Chavez had and that's what gets you promoted in authoritarian governments. None of the people involved in Chavez's government would've been able to follow up his cult of personality and avoid the continuing decline of their economy since its decline is due to a fundamental flaw in the ideology driving the government and not the execution of any one executive.

Yes but where did Chavez even find Maduro, didn't he go straight from being a bus driver to president?

He was your standard vote whip in their legislature for a few years after Chavez's takeover, got made their version of Secretary of State, and then was appointed vice president.

It only seems like he came out of nowhere because non-Venezuelan media didn't follow intra-party politics all that much. Maduro was your standard party insider for years before being made the heir apparent. He'd been a full-time politician for more than ten years by the time Chavez made him VP.

Hitler was democratically elected. Trump was democratically elected.

By "democratically" elected, though, they probably forget the fact that those so-called "elections" are pretty much either rigged or completely ignored in Maduro's favor.

And when he lost the legislature in a democratic vote she simply abolished it and made a new one, only commies allowed tho.

Also when the supreme court declared it unconstitutional he simply abolished it and made a new one as well.
