Outcast at a crossroads

The revolution in Venezuela has a remarkable background: just in Kiev the trial of the ex-president of Ukraine Yanukovych, sentenced to 13 years for the Stateizer and aiding the aggressor, has ended in Kiev. Or vice versa: in the upcoming fate of Nicholas Maduro, the sad fate of the convicted person for betrayal is visible. In a word, all this news, from our neighboring and far abroad, float at each other, forming a common plot. About the rebellious people and his enemies, who are at the same time the faithful friends of Russia.

The plot is recognizable. A familiar also, in Soviet times, with their gradation of aggressive wars - from fraternal assistance in the near foreign campaign to the execution of international duty in Africa, in Latin America, in Afghanistan. And at times the current, with partly invisible troops in the Crimea, in the Donbass, in Syria, supported by squall propaganda fire. So we will not be surprised if we find out tomorrow that the Americans feed the rebellious Venezuelans by the State Deputy cooks in the squares, and the Black Cashier is already working in the US Embassy, ​​supplying the rebels with currency, or even weapons.

The scheme is generally known. In a foreign country, a leader is discovered, illuminated by the light of Lenin's ideas, or just a bandit with a fan of extinguished criminal records, and a bet is on him. There, in this alien country, irrevocable Kremlin loans and hopeless loans are pumped. Then they throw him away, and those who put him in Moscow have a desire to punish the troublemakers, that is, a whole people, because of which both loans and loans sailed. No, this does not mean that the communist Fuhrers in underdeveloped countries were going to pay off, God forbid, but they remained controlled, like the same Yanukovych and the same Maduro. They paid differently, and this warmed the hearts of their Soviet or Russian curators.

For the sake of objectivity, we note that American gendarmes are also not alien to annexionist plans and the desire to buy their bitch sons. However, it usually turns out, if we only talk about the economy that, under the canopy of the star-striped flag, neither the general poverty nor inflation, measured by numbers with an infinite number of zeros, grow. Under the flag of Soviet or Russian, different ones grow.

It happened that we ourselves went bankrupt, generously gifting, so that they would not run away, and the social camp, and the African admirers of Marx, and the terrorist international. (The Americans did not go broke.) And now, having stolen the largest geopolitical catastrophe of the twentieth century and floating with the civilized world, we are friends exclusively with outcasts. By the way, there are few of them in the world, and all the more unbearable, when the unconscious, and yesterday, the fraternal Venezuelan people, like the former fraternal Ukrainian, overthrow our Maduro.

Firstly, this is again a geopolitical disaster, since everyone knows what, from where they are led by Vladimir Vladimirovich or Igor Ivanovich there, NATO soldiers immediately instill. Secondly, in humanly a little offensive, about $ 20 billion was invested in this damned Venezuela, and, in fact, it would be possible to invest as much, if the obedient people continued to show the miracles of Stoicism, living according to Chavez's covenants and exposing kilometer lines behind toilet paper. So no, both citizens and the political elites gathered in the National Assembly compensated for a different share - and now the legally elected Maduro was declared a usurpator, and the acting president’s temporarily acting was the leader of the opposition, Juan Guydo. And, of course, the Americans immediately recognized him, and with them - almost everyone we do not love so much, to whom the anti -resistance.

That is why there are so many sincere pain and anger in the statements of Russian official representatives, President Putin is in a hurry to call the next victim of the Maidan, expressing his support to him. In the end, the main trouble of the Russian national leader does not come down to the fact that billions are sailing. I imagine that the new government, having improved the economy, wishes to return them - this is still unacceptable, because it is not happiness in money, but in the control of faithful and poor allies. The main trouble is that the Venezueans fell off the hook. For decades, fed by a feeling of hatred of the Americans, they suddenly rejected this healthy food - from hunger, they say. They feel this feeling today for their displaced leader.

The question is what to do and whose advice to listen to.

The voice of reason in such situations should tell the usurpator thoughts of humility and escape. Following the example, for example, Yanukovych, who had a friend in Rostov-on-Don in time, and as a result, even the stern Obolonsky district court of Kyiv passed him a relatively soft sentence under articles providing for life imprisonment. Still, he did not dare to shed the blood of his compatriots in order to maintain power. Therefore, the fate of Chausko or Gaddafi does not threaten him and he will hardly serve his term. And in Rostov or closer, in Havana, Maduro will probably find a refuge.

However, the experience of Ukrainian revolutions shows how, at such moments, Moscow recommends that unlaccurate leaders work. Both Kuchma in 2004, and Yanukovych ten years later Putin called for decisiveness and mercilessness. He was probably ready to provide military assistance, and the special services were already working in the field. True, the Russian army will reach the Karakas of the Russian army than to Kyiv or Donbass, but after all, there are PMCs, which have already covered themselves with unfading glory. And the Army of Venezuela did not finally determine. However, the American army (and armies of neighboring states) are purely geographically located much closer to the Maduro residence than to the Crimean shores, and this should have a reasoning effect on its head. When he thinks about what to do: sink a revolution in his blood or accept the inevitable.

It is clear what they push him in Moscow. On the other hand, the trial of the former Ukrainian president ended yesterday, and this coincidence in time would like to call it no coincidence. Yanukovych betrayed his people and condemned, but alive. Maduro has not even really betrayed. He has quite little time, dramatic circumstances, bad advisers, but there is a choice. It's not too late.
