Speaking on Friday in Santiago, Chile, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo
defended the US attempts to impose regime change in Venezuela, saying
that the US will not “quit the fight” until they get what they want.
Pompeo presented the US as supporting Venezuelans who are “courageously
standing up for democracy,” by demanding President Maduro be removed
from office and replaced by an opposition figure, Juan Guaido.
Pompeo said this was an historic opportunity for South America, and that
everyone understands that the US is “truly trying to help” by pushing
for regime change.
Pompeo also angrily condemned China for its “malign influence,” saying that in supporting Maduro, China was prolonging the crisis. China and Russia are among the nations still supporting the existing Venezuelan government, and accusing the US of meddling.
Pompeo’s condemnation of China comes just after Vice President Mike
Pence was angrily condemning Russia at the UN Security Council,
demanding that they get out of the way and just let regime change
happen.
Truly trying to help, huh?
Maybe the Venezuelans don’t want our idea of “help” .
When will the USA have a regime change that actually benefits (or even represents) the interests of the US population and even the possiblity of peace and fairness among nations instead of bullying and sanctions to make the others do what the USA wants??
Dr. Strangelove is pathetic.
