VENEZUELA: MADURO RESHUFFLES CABINET, ARREAZA REPLACED AS FOREIGN MINISTER
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro announced cabinet changes after a number of ministers were chosen as candidates for the November 21 “mega-elections.”

The diplomat will replace Jorge Arreaza, who has held the post since August 2017 and is a popular figure with grassroots and international solidarity movements.

🇻🇪🗣 INTERVIEW 🗣🇻🇪
VENEZUELA'S GANGS HAVE BEEN TURNED INTO ARMED CRIMINAL ENTERPRISES (PART I)
In July, security forces carried out a three-day anti-gang operation in the Cota 905 barrio of Caracas after an uptick in violence in the working-class district. The Operation, which caught the headlines of the global media, involved 2500 security personnel and left 22 gang members dead and 28 wounded.
Government sources claim links between the leaders of the “mega-gangs” and far-right groups and regime change paramilitary activities stemming from Colombia. Opposition spokespersons have denied any involvement.
Part I of this two-part interview with criminologist Andrés Antillano looks at some of the historical transformations that gangs have been subject to in light of changing relations with the state and the recessionary economy.

The cabinet reshuffle follows the August 8 United Socialist Party of Venezuela’s (PSUV) internal primaries where high-ranking officials were elected candidates for the November 21 regional and local contests. Carmen Meléndez and Eduardo Piñate leave their ministry posts to race for the Caracas mayoralty and Apure governorship, respectively. Maduro called them to "consolidate a great victory" in the upcoming mega-elections.
In that order, President Maduro appointed Admiral Remigio Ceballos as the new interior, justice and peace minister in replacement of Meléndez, while Yelitze Santaella will be in charge of the education portfolio, taking Piñate's place. Santaella lost her primary contest in Monagas state.

El Maizal communards talk about the impact of the sanctions, the creative solutions they have employed during the blockade, as well as the importance of political formation to keep Hugo Chávez’s socialist project alive.
El Maizal Commune lies in the fertile lands between the Lara and Portuguesa states in western Venezuela. Founded in 2009, this rural commune has become an important political and economic force in both the region and the country.

VENEZUELA RELINQUISHES STAKE IN DOMINICAN REFINERY, RECLAIMS DEBT
Following the swap, the Dominican government bought the Refidomsa shares from PATSA “for the same agreed price,” a reported US $88.1 million, to own the enterprise entirely.
The agreed compensation fell well short of the $135 million PDVSA paid in 2010, under former President Hugo Chávez’s government. The 49 percent stake had been acquired as part of the Chávez-led regional integration program PetroCaribe, which provided crude at preferential prices to Caribbean countries to boost development. As part of the agreement with Refidomsa, Venezuela would process its heavy crude in the Dominican 34,000 barrel per day (bpd) refinery. The partnership ended in 2015 after a global oil price drop forced Venezuela to wind down its project.

Cryptocurrency mining and speculation have likewise gained in popularity amongst Venezuelans as a way to supplement dire local currency wages with hard currency income, as well as protect savings from on-going inflation.
“Many prefer to keep the cryptocurrencies and wait for them to go up in value to then sell and generate money through price speculation,” Olmos went on to say.

VENEZUELA'S GANGS HAVE BEEN TURNED INTO ARMED CRIMINAL ENTERPRISES (PART II)
The Cota 905 gang (or one of its bosses) had begun to develop an idea about not only functioning like a company but also as a social movement. It was looking to bring together all the gangs in Caracas to pressure the government to negotiate certain conditions, a kind of criminal syndicate, a union of the outlaws of Caracas.
This idea had nothing to do with business or profitability, which, in fact, are contradictory objectives... Perhaps that's what caused the gang to fail [in its confrontation with the police]. Maybe the Cota 905 gang expected a response from their allies and believed that the government wouldn’t dare to do what it did.
