VENEZUELAN GOVERNMENT, GUAIDÓ OPPOSITION RESUME CONTENTIOUS NEGOTIATIONS IN MEXICO

On Monday evening, government representative Jorge Rodríguez announced the signing of two “partial agreements,” claiming that they “had done it again in Mexico.”

The first agreement, he informed, concerned joint efforts to “defend Venezuela’s inalienable sovereignty over the [disputed] Essequibo strip” which Guaidó had allegedly offered to bargain away in exchange for political support from the UK in 2019. The second one was to “defend Venezuela’s economy” and increase social coverage for the Venezuelan people, especially in the fight against Covid-19 and hunger. While Rodríguez did not offer details, he did suggest that funds for this social coverage would come from the liberation of frozen or seized Venezuelan assets abroad.

THE THREE-ACT TRAGICOMEDY OF THE VENEZUELAN OPPOSITION

The history of the Venezuelan opposition since the arrival of Hugo Chávez’s Bolivarian Revolution has been one of gaffes, violence, infighting and shortsightedness.

While the corporate media has done its utmost to cheer on US-backed sectors and blame their failures on unsubstantiated claims that the game is “rigged,” the fact is that anti-Chavismo’s shortcomings spring from its very nature. The opposition’s leaders stem from a well of racist elitism that saw running the country as a birthright taken away by a low-class “populist” in 1999. Add to that their eternal umbilical cord to Washington, and the result has been a constant misreading of Venezuelan reality.
