As Venezuela enters its “liquidation phase” of the revolution, growing international acceptance of the Venezuelan opposition, including by Maduro backers such as the People’s Republic of China, may mean that Maduro’s days in power might be limited, with an increasingly united front against him indicating that the aftermath might not be as chaotic as some believe. All this despite Maduro having to take de facto hostages.
The breaking point might be Maduro’s reaction to people trying to bring food and aid to the starving millions of Venezuela by stopping incoming aid by violence, all while he throws a massive musical concert! This just might be the point when the violence and repression have moved far too many who oppose him than he couldn’t possibly stop it.
Maduro, however, is not likely to go gentle into the good night…
