VENEZUELA ACCUSES GUAIDÓ OF $53 MILLION OF PUBLIC FUND 'THEFT'
The president of the Venezuelan National Assembly (AN) accused opposition leader Juan Guaidó of trying to “steal” US $53 million in Venezuelan funds currently frozen by the US Treasury Department.
Since 2019, the US has sequestered $342 million held by the Venezuelan Central Bank (BCV) in the United States alongside other assets as part of efforts to oust the Maduro government from power. Washington put this money at the disposal of the opposition but its use requires a license from the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).

VENEZUELA ACCUSES GUAIDÓ OF $53 MILLION OF PUBLIC FUND 'THEFT'
According to the leaked information, nearly half of the funds are destined for “defense of democracy,” with Rodríguez claiming they are used to finance destabilization efforts by the opposition inside the country.
The remainder of the funds are allocated to maintain Guaidó’s parallel “government.” If approved, his office alone would receive nearly $2 million USD, with his “foreign affairs minister” Julio Borges receiving $5.6 million.

What do you think about the recent legislation opening the door to the creation of a National Communal Parliament in Venezuela?
Anonymous Poll

It's a smokescreen to undermine grassroots organization

It's a positive, revolutionary jump forward

It's illegal and against the Constitution

OIL OUTPUT REMAINS STEADY AS PDVSA EYES FUEL PRODUCTION BOOST
US-led sanctions have forced PDVSA to rely upon fuel imports to satisfy internal demand, estimated to be around 250,000 bpd currently, between gasoline and diesel. The country entered an acute diesel shortage period after Washington put an end to crude-for-diesel swaps, a mechanism used by the Caribbean nation to circumvent sanctions, in October 2020.
The diesel shortages have severely affected food distribution, electricity generation and agricultural activity.

THE WORKING CLASS IN ITS LABYRINTH: A CONVERSATION WITH EDUARDO SÁNCHEZ
The crisis of the working class is multidimensional. First, the minimum wage in Venezuela is less than one dollar a month, according to official data. The UN considers anyone who has an income below 1.9 USD per day to be in extreme poverty.
To give you a more precise approximation, the CENDA [research center for the working class] estimates that the basic goods basket here – including food, housing, and other basic goods and services – comes to around 300 USD per month.
This drives the working class to search for precarious, sometimes dangerous jobs to supplement these tiny salaries.
