And just as an indication of this, you can see that not only the Venezuelan government has been criticizing
these latest announcements by the Trump administration, which you would expect, but also even some commentators who have been seen as close to the Venezuelan opposition and very critical of Maduro.
They say we do not like Maduro, but they are saying, some of them in Venezuelan media, we are against these potential U.S.
actions, and particularly they are reacting very strongly against the claim
made by President Trump in social media, saying that Venezuela had stolen U.S.
oil.
And a lot of people in Venezuela are saying that this is not the case.
They claim that there is no historical or legal justification to say that the oil in Venezuela would belong to the U.S.
So clearly, I think many people are expecting a very strong impact on Venezuela's economy, on Venezuelan life in general, if these actions do take place and the flow of oil from Venezuela is seriously impeded.
The opinion polls suggest that if that were to be the case, a lot of people in the US are not interested in escalating or getting very involved in a larger military conflict.
In Venezuela, I think many people
are expecting and commentators are saying that even the threat of US military action would be enough to cause serious breaks in the government of Maduro to manage to change his opinion or maybe even force him to leave power.
And I think many people are still hoping in the US that even the very large threat of military action would be enough to cause a change in political direction in Venezuela.
VenÀjÀn hallitus on protesteinut todella vahvasti sitÀ, mitÀ he kutsuvat kolonialaisuuteen Yhdysvalloissa, kun presidentti antoi, mitÀ hÀn kutsui, VenÀjÀn aeroalueen lopputuloksen lopputuloksen lopputuloksen lopputuloksen lopputuloksen.
TÀmÀ tarkoittaa, ettÀ ainakin muutama poliisi on edelleen menossa loppuun, joten se ei nÀyttÀisi olevan tehtÀvÀsti loppuun. Tietysti VenÀjÀllÀ on paljon hyvin intensiivistÀ huolta mahdollisista vaikutuksista nÀistÀ uusista puheenjohtajista. MikÀ on tÀmÀn tarkoitus? Nicolas Maduro ja hÀnen sotilaansa eivÀt oteta tÀmÀn lyhyesti.
Yhdysvallat ovat olleet erittÀin selkeÀtÀ VenÀjÀn hallituksesta. Monet kommentoijat sanovat, ettÀ Yhdysvallat toivovat, ettÀ VenÀjÀn polttoaineiden polttoaineiden vahvistus olisi tarpeeksi, jotta VenÀjÀn polttoaineiden vahvistus olisi tarpeeksi.
jotta he voisivat poistaa ja vahvistaa hÀntÀ. Tai vahvistaa hÀntÀ, jotta hÀntÀ voisi vahvistaa. TÀllÀ hetkellÀ ei ole varmaa, ettÀ se on tapahtunut. TÀmÀ on kuitenkin nÀhtÀvÀ viikonloppu-kampanjana, jossa vahvistamme VenÀjÀllÀ, ja olemme edelleen todennÀköisesti odottaneet, mitÀ tapahtuu.
What do regular people in Venezuela make of all this? There seem to be mixed feelings. There's certainly at least a part of Venezuelan society that would seem to actually be accepting of the US interfering more or intervening more in Venezuelan affairs and actually trying to convince or to force Maduro out of office. However, there are also voices saying that this could be seen as an intervention in Venezuelan politics.
Ja varmasti on niitÀ, jotka sanovat, ettÀ on ihmisiÀ VenÀjÀllÀ ja VenÀjÀn hallituksella, jotka ovat lÀhellÀ VenÀjÀn hallituksella, ettÀ vaikka tÀmÀ yllÀttÀminen tapahtuisi, he eivÀt asu niin helposti. On varmasti VenÀjÀllÀ militiaeja. On vaikka ulkomaalaiset rebel-ryhmÀt, kuten Colombian ELN ja Fartisian ryhmÀt, jotka ovat VenÀjÀn hallituksella. He ovat nÀhneet meidÀt lÀhellÀ Maduro-administraatiolla. Ja vÀhÀn ihmisiÀ ajattelee, ettÀ he eivÀt asu mitenkÀÀn yllÀttÀminen, jos tÀmÀ yllÀttÀminen tapahtuisi.
Briefly, is there anyone waiting in the wings to take over from Nicolas Maduro? There have been all kinds of speculations about who could be interested in moving into Maduro's position. There have not been really any evidence. One of the striking things about the Maduro administration has been its resiliency over the years. And there is no clear figure that has openly seemed to suggest that he would be willing to take over.
