From ExxonMobil to Guaidó: the map of complicities of the aggressions against Venezuela.

in #news6 years ago

Tuesday, January 8, Executive Vice President Delcy Rodríguez announced the talks between the Venezuelan Navy and the two ExxonMobil seismic exploration vessels in territorial waters of the Bolivarian Republic.

In the audio it can be verified that, indeed, the captain of the ship knew that it was in coordinates of the Venezuelan territory, with the approval of the Guyanese government, who has assumed the role of proxy to press geopolitically through the energy-territorial war to benefit of one of the largest oil companies in the United States.

This represents an escalation in the movements of Exxon-Guyana to try to stock up on a good slice of the Venezuelan Essequibo, which diplomatically represents the claim of the former British colony in favor of the Paris Arbitral Award of 1899, a theft of what would be a large part of the Guyanese massif with unexploited amounts of oil, gas, various minerals, in addition to having a unique biodiversity on the planet.

The territorial waters of Venezuela were invaded once more, and the Navy acted accordingly, according to the naval protocol. That "You are defending your territory" said by the US captain clearly reflects his intentionality to walk like Pedro through his house, according to popular slang, to representation of an oil company that strategically sees Venezuela in a scenario central to US geopolitics.

On the domestic front, too, the political elite of anti-Chavezism has undermined all its fields of struggle, it is sustained on a National Assembly without legal competence before the decisions of the Supreme Court of Justice. This created the destabilization of the structure of the Venezuelan State through Parliament, whose leaders seek the overthrow of the government of President Nicolás Maduro as a publicly deliberate objective.

Juan Guaidó enters the scene.

The leader of Voluntad Popular, Juan Guaidó, assumed on Saturday January 5 the presidency of the National Assembly in contempt of a pact signed between the main leaders of the opposition (the four strongest parties) to rotate the leadership of Parliament.

This Guaidó, a character who was unwelcome and unknown to the country until yesterday, does not reach the presidency of the AN, product of any notable leadership. The charge falls to him of carambola by that pact signed 4 years ago between some types that hate each other and must agree compromises. Look:

Guaidó was named in 2015 by José Rafael Pérez Venta, who starred in a scandalous dismemberment of an opposition militant for commercial reasons, having been one of the main organizers and intellectual authors of the "La Salida" plan. In its staggered hierarchy of the party, Guaidó became the third in command of the national leadership, after Leopoldo López, paying condemnation, and Freddy Guevara, today isolated in the Chilean embassy.

Although his political work of yesteryear was focused on the Vargas state, he soon became a low-income street agitator of the aspirations of the top leaders of his party, the president of the National Assembly.
He has been called by the Secretary General of the OAS, Luis Almagro, and according to the latest statement of the Lima Group against the sovereignty of Venezuela, to take the Presidency of the Bolivarian Republic, with the support of even the State Department of the Trump Administration . Juan Guaidó never expected such a scenario in his life, although international pressures obviously make themselves felt.

To the comment of the journalist from El Mundo de España: "Radical factors of the opposition, including former Colombian President Andrés Pastrana, demand that he be autojured as president of the Republic, arguing void of power", from a recent interview the deputy replied:

"We said it clearly: a new constitutional period begins without a president-elect in Venezuela on January 10. We are in a situation of force, not of law, there is no State of law in my country, they have gradually dismantled it. the Group of Lima, the United States, Canada and the European Union, I believe that the work of Parliament is to build that strength and the conditions to achieve a transition in Venezuela. "

Guaidó proposes to capitalize new violent protests in the style of 2014 and 2017, which together with institutional and international pressure could, according to the Popular Will thesis, unleash a coup against President Maduro. The insurrection as a form of struggle is the currency of this part of the Venezuelan opposition, already outlawed, that borders on the strategic interests of the United States.

This was evidenced by the staunch defense of Freddy Guevara, former vice-president of the Parliament, who in 2016 requested that the ExxonMobil be compensated by the Venezuelan State. That sector antichavista publicly assumed for itself the spokesman of the interests of the oil company that has been in its phase of exploration of the limits between Guyana and Venezuela, and that has maintained litigations with the chavismo in the executive power.

Since the beginning of 2016, the National Assembly was underused as a political instrument to wrestle an institutional clash for anti-Chavism, as a local proxy of US interests, which would result in the long-awaited coup against Maduro, but at the same time it has been the basis for installing a kind of parallel government, promote a military insurrection and financial blockade to Venezuela. Guaidó, would come to continue the strategy forajida so far failed but that, however, has managed to break some broken dishes -economic, social, family, cultural- in the Venezuelan floor.

It is expected, then, an escalation at the international level with a legislative power sequestered by the US corporate interests. From the attempted assassination to the border provocations of neighboring countries, all the threads lead to the same geopolitical scenario in which the Trump Administration and China dispute the resources and political influences in the Western Hemisphere, with Venezuela as an ally or key enemy.
