so what gives America the right to meddle into a country affairs...why not allow the pple decide...did anyone influenced bouteflika to step down in Algeria or bashir to step down in Sudan?? like u said Americans can't do Jack cos Russia and China ll block every moves...if d pple don't want maduro at d end he ll go...Venezuela is a sovereign State and be treated such...

The USA isn't meddling. Why does everyone say this? 50 Countries support Guaido, not Maduro. Especially Brazil, Chile, Colombia, etc all want Maduro out. There 3 million Venezuelan refugees all over Latin America. MUD party won the last election, Maduro is not the President.

His people elected him that's why he is still in power, he has majority support while Guaido is seen as a US puppet.
America wants to control the oil and Guaido has promised to privatise and give US firms priority

Venezuelan oil sucks, terrible quality. The USA is the largest producer of oil and gas on Planet Earth. Their oil is a waste of time.
How come nobody mentions how Chavez stole American and European energy operations in Venezuela? Their oil fields are so hard to navigate they hired American and European operators, who invested billions and then Chavez at gun point took over, lol. This happened in 2005. Brush up on your history.

If not for Vladimir putin who's backing this tyrant Maduro, Donald trump would have given him the Gaddafi treatment. Putin is the problem not even Maduro. Putin always supports the worst dictators

Russia always goes the opposite direction to the US to show they are world power too.

So any Tyrant the US and it's allies are against will quickly seek help from Russia. Russia is always looking for any opportunity to show they can be world leaders or that they can be as powerful as the US too, if not more powerful....but that's the beauty of it all, without the likes of Russia and China lately, the US would just be too powerful with no one to checkmate them...this way the US will always know there is something at stake. I know most of the things Russia involve themselves in are very wrong but there is always the need for a big bad opposition, or else...

Kiddo, all Middle East countries are still Asian countries . There’s no continent called Middle East
alright oldster, just like there is logically nothing like south south, i used 'middle east' to differentiate between the arab world and traditional asian countries i never said it was a continent on its own......

Sometimes read through the lines, you would get a deeper meaning....

How can another country decide if your election is free and fair? It's total crap. I'm in support of him. America should mind their business. If they can't face countries like China and Russia

It’s not just America that against them u know? Even uk and un. There must be a reason for this. Why can’t he dialogue with them to save his country from this mess. Why hasn’t he conducted fresh elections for almost a year now they have been in this state. A right thinking leader will consider his people’s wishes b4 his personal ambition. Look at the chaos.

It is all about the president in question.. Obama had no balls and to some extent, Trump is focusing more on America right now.. Did the 5 permanent members of the UN sanction the war in Iraq? Bush even called the UN a debating organisation and went ahead and attack Iraq even with out proof of weapon of mass destruction and the whole world include UN watched

That was a French/British operation. The USA helped out. Gaddafi was extorting money from the EU, they paid. Then again he wanted more and said so publicly.
helped out indeed. We all know what happens when they want to help out they end up taking control. World War 2 they came in late but they are the ones that ended it. What am trying to say is they played the Major part in ousting him and the country has been a shit hole ever since his ousting.

Who the Bleep are they? They should go and invade Russia not flexing muscles on smaller nations. It's crap. If you're a president and someone is dictating for your County you'll feel intimated I don't know why people like you still support them. These nations are evil. They steal from you and act like angels. Chavez never leaked their Ass. Why has the ICC not prosecuted Obama even after admitting it was a wrong move?? These nations created the ICC and refused to be member of it. I hate this people honestly.

It's better to kill the pawns who allow the international community to brain wash them. Libyans who supported NATO and killed Ghadaffi are they not regretting it today? Libyans standard of living was higher than some European countries back then. But what's happening now? After America destroy them they still named them a failed state just like Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria etc... I told some people North Korea won't democratize but they were saying the fear of America will make them. Leaders are now taking bold steps just like Syrians president i rather die than stepping down. America created terrorism with their actions. From Iraq to Afghanistan, to Syria and Libya. If a country is well organized they won't have time to terrorism

Most leaders America has issues with are usually controversial or have sm major concerns with their rule. The Americans are not crazy if u handle them with diplomacy and tact they back off cos they know their place and limits bt if ur people say they don’t want u cos Ure a bad leader who the fcvk is the president to hold people to ransom? The president is just a common citizen like u and I elected to do a job.

The president shud either fix the country or resign for the sake of the country. The fact Ure a president doesn’t mean Ure automatically a good one, u might be a bad one and the people can decide to speak against u. My position are the claims and reasons for the long protests valid? If so let him resign. The protesters are not Americans and they have a say in their country.

You speak from a shallow point of view bro, you think America are saint?? What if Russians doesn't like their president or China will American step in? Do you know these guys can actually sponsor insiders to support their selfish interest? Libya's standard of living was higher than some of the European countries and yet American killed Ghadaffi because he didn't leak their ass. I'm happy Libyan are suffering it today. That's what happens when you allow an outsider to decide your fate. They interfere in people's affairs but get angry if people do the same in theirs. Why are they pained for over 3 yrs Russians interfere in their elections?

It's a 50/50 battle that's why they respect each other. No leader wants to put his nation under threat. Americans only interfere in counties they can defeat hands down.

have you seen American annual budget? Compare it with Russia and tell me how powerful Russia is. Any country with nuclear weapon cannot be invaded anyhow and that's the reason the US can't invade North Korea. That doesn't mean North Korea is stronger than the US.

I’m not saying Americans are saints I’m say let’s be objective on the issues not playing politics with who is who. The president despite being elected doesn’t mean he shud take the people for granted. Sm Governments are oppressive on their own people shud that continue on checked because they are rule by 1 man?

Russia and China are super powers bt yet they are still conscious not to trample on every right of their people in an oppressive way. The US will still call them out if they do anything excessive.

U want a country to exist on it own in the 21st century? That’s not realistic unless u are self sufficient and even with that there still many world bodies that will hold u accountable if u oppress ur people that the world order. The world is not a jungle anymore that u can do what u like and get away with anything.

America has the media. Do you know the same America owes the highest debt? But they don't talk much about their debts. These guys plays a lot of mind games. Like I said the war it's a 50/50 thing. And no president will want to risk it. Even North Korea will give America headache talkless of Russia.

Americans will never want any Country to interfere in their affairs either negative or positive. The Russia election Saga was for a positive course exposing fraud in their electoral system yet they didn't like it.
Leave that thing bro America just want to enjoy world power if possible colonizing the whole world. Don't be deceived.

Venezuela has the largest oil reserves in the world, more than Saudi Arabia and America. They also have huge gold reserves. John Bolton has publicly stated that US needs to have it's hand on this oil which feeds several US refineries.

Venezuela oil does not suck rather it's well sort after because of high content of Jet A1 for airlines which is very lucrative.
Chavez was giving free oil to poor Americans for many years (Google is your friend).
As at today, heavy crude is now more expensive than Sweet Brent crude just for the reason I stated above.

Kaduna refinery in Nigeria was designed to process heavy crude from Venezuela due to the many byproducts. (Please confirm this on Google or NNPC site and revert)

Over a hundred countries support Maduro including Nigeria, no country in Africa recognise Guaido, no Asian countries recognise Guaido, it's only the US and Europe excluding Italy.
Russia, China, India, Mexico, Turkey, Ghana etc recognise Maduro.

Western media keeps mentioning that 50 countries recognise Guaido to give him some sense of acceptance without mentioning that over 100 countries recognise Maduro, that should tell you the agenda. I like your interest in foreign affairs but your outlook should be wide, switch off CNN, BBC, Aljazeera and read wide from other sited.
