Russland ist eben keine ‚Schutzmacht‘ Venezuelas. Es gibt kein russisch-venezolanisches Abkommen, das zu gegenseitigem militärischem Beistand verpflichtet. Eine strategische Partnerschaft verpflichtet dazu nicht.

It’s amazing how times change: When I was conducting research in #Venezuela for my master’s thesis on 🇻🇪-🇷🇺relations in 2012, almost no one was interested in the topic. Today, I have received several interview requests on the subject in just the past few days. And when I began my

RU state-owned company Roszarubezhneft, which manages 🇷🇺 assets in Venezuela, says it will continue to develop assets jointly with the Venezuelan side. As I stated earlier, there is no threat to Russian interests at this point. Risks for Russia would stem from a breakdown of

Delcy Rodríguez traf sich mit dem diplomatischen Corps der EU, Großbritanniens und der Schweiz – unter Maduro undenkbar. Vieles deutet darauf hin, dass er zur toxischsten Figur im chavistischen Machtgefüge geworden war. Sein erzwungener Machtverlust war für alle Seiten opportun –

“In short, the Venezuelan military’s incompetence appears to have played a big role in the U.S. success. Venezuela’s much-touted antiaircraft systems were essentially not connected when U.S. forces entered the skies over Venezuela’s capital.”

The Venezuelan regime had high-powered air defense systems from its allies in the Kremlin, but failed to set much of it up.

India’s Reliance Industries is reportedly seeking 🇺🇸 approval to resume Venezuelan oil purchases, after opting not to take 🇷🇺 crude this month. This context may help explain India’s measured reaction to 🇺🇸 attack on Venezuela.

So far, it doesn't appear that US is running Venezuela: “There are reports of groups of armed militias, known as colectivos, setting up roadblocks and searching vehicles for evidence of U.S. citizenship or support for the United States.”
Venezuela: The security situation in Venezuela remains fluid. As international flights have resumed, U.S. citizens in Venezuela should leave the country immediately. Before departure, U.S. citizens should take precautions and be aware of their surroundings. There are reports of

Yes. Incidentally, Venezuela joined Mercosur in 2012. Its membership has been suspended since 2016 over failures to uphold democratic and institutional principles. With political dynamics now shifting, could that suspension eventually be lifted?
Europe and most of South America, both now confronting explicit U.S. military and trade coercion, do the sensible thing: deepen cooperation to increase their strategic autonomy and to establish one of the largest free-trade zones in the world, connecting 725 million people.

Interesting times lie ahead. I wouldn't be surprised if the #EU soon becomes desperate to normalise relations with #Russia. As a counterweight to increasingly ruthless „closest ally“ from overseas. #Trump #Greenland

Europe seems determined to continue the conflict and obstruct a realistic peace settlement. The assumption remains that Russia can be repulsed lby Ukraine with European support. The terms set out in Europe’s peace plan assume that Russia’s fundamental demands on NATO
