In another excruciating Monday for chavismo, the Lima Group is meeting today, regarding how it can help the cause of Venezuelan freedom. And after that meeting, the discussion continues with our very own Quico Toro as panelist.
On February 4, 1992, Venezuelans saw Hugo Chávez on TV for the first time. The skinny young Lieutenant Colonel took responsibility for his failed attempt to overthrow by force of arms a government that, however flawed, had been elected by the people.
Today in the European Parliament, 439 members voted to recognize Juan Guaidó as Venezuela’s caretaker President. Speaker Antonio Tajani deserves most of the credit.
Operación Sapeo is what the government gives a huge effort to get shantytown residents to snitch out neighbors who join anti-Maduro protests. It’s working.
A shocking attack against parishioners in a church in Zulia State follows a slew of threats against Catholic prelates, while the Pope scandalizes Venezuela’s faithful by distancing himself from his own bishops.

In past protest cycles —2014 and 2017— the government relied on civilian paramilitary groups to terrorize dissidents. This time, they’re not outsourcing the job. Meet the hyper-violent National Police division leading repression in 2019.
The Venezuelan crisis is burning a hole through Spain’s political scene, as the opposition skewers Prime Minister Sánchez for a weak, dithering response as he's held hostage by his unambiguously chavista allies in Podemos.

Humanitarian aid may finally be on its way, thanks to a request from Caretaker President Juan Guaidó, but the politics surrounding poses clear risks.
We’ve been able to hang on for 22 years in one of the craziest media landscapes in the world. We’ve seen different media outlets in Venezuela (and abroad) closing shop, something we’re looking to avoid at all costs. Your collaboration goes a long way in helping us weather the storm.
