#UPDATE: Reports of Russian personnel arriving by Venezuelan AF plane to Coro, taking position in the Girardot Battalion & in oil refineries of the Paraguaná Peninsula. "They occupy a whole floor in the Cumberland hotel near the Coro airport" sources say

Hope thousands of Russians come to Venezuela. Bring them by the Antonov load

What do they need to sustain there? The breadbasket of Latin america can feed them and resupply them, what do they need for long persistent presence? Thousands could probably be there without many woes. Ammunition needs to be pre-shipped any cold war era stuff they want to get rid of, just stockpile it. What else , aircraft parts and ordnance? Not sure how to get around that one without ships... Really hope they can figure something out there for long term presence without navy. Russians are creative I know they can do something about it. Collaboration with Cuba is probably necessary. I know the Cubans are getting things in there and maintaining presence without a navy.

#UPDATE: Venezuelan media- “Reliable sources inform us that military intervention in Venezuela is imminent. It will last for weeks depending on the resistance that is found

As promised I have removed the xenophobic BS... was going to move it to the talking bollocks II thread but it was just easier to click delete instead.

This thread is for discussing Venezuela.

If you want to discuss another topic create another thread or save time and put it in the talking bollocks II thread straight away.

The US is preparing for the latest attack on Venezuela: $Ms and mercenaries

Bay of Pigs round 2?

They believed their own propaganda then too and thought all they had to do was land mercs and the locals would rise up and shower them with flowers and throw out Castro... except what happened was nothing like that... is it a problem with western intell.. or are western politicians just idiots?   ...perhaps both.

With the collusion BS going on in the US that is clearly based on a pro hillary intel community.... perhaps this is them trying to throw Trump under the bus before the next election...  millions of peoples lives turned upside down and probably thousands or tens of thousands killed but worth every penny to get rid of Trump will be their reasoning...  callous bastards...

Bogota accused Maduro army of having links with Colombian rebels

Venezuelan FM allowed an increase in the number of Russian military in the country

They r getting ready. In the long run, US interventions in L. America will only speed up Latinos northward migration & decline of White population & control of N. America. Mexico & C. America alone have ~60M people below the poverty line. The Hadrian & Great China Walls didn't stop "barbarians" from overrunning the Roman & Chinese Empires; any future wall/fence on US-Mexican border won't be more successful.

Trump found himself deceived because of promises of a quick victory in Venezuela

Sorry if repost. This is the death squad junta good old days that the yanquis are trying to foist on Venezuela. No amount of economic
failure can compare with the Latin American comprador regime oppression.

The country is becoming like Egypt- de-facto owned by the military:
https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/venezuela-military/

I guess it's the only way to defend it, "from all the enemies, foreign & domestic"! G. Washington & D. Eisenhower were also generals before assuming their presidency. Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Brazil & other L. American states were also ruled by their militaries at 1 time or another.

Guaydo gave up and announced his readiness to meet Maduro

Now kill him...

An explanation for the desire of Guaydo to negotiate with Maduro
https://vz.ru/news/2019/7/5/985923.print.html

He is a no one... even with the full support of the western world he could not organise an orgy in a brothel... I am surprised the US didn't have him killed because that would be the only way to make him useful from their perspective...

Hey, why not play western games and arrest him and put him in solitary confinement and torture him a bit and then state the only way the US can have him is in return for Julian Assange... or perhaps Madeline Allbright...

If they get Assange then let him go free, and if they get Allbright offer tickets in Serbia and hold a referendum on what should be done with her...
