After getting caught with his hand in an empty cashier's till, he shouts the loudest about unfair treatment. In all his wailing, he seems to forget to bring up the missing money, but his noise certainly does fill the room.
Venezuela = the guy caught with his hand where it doesn't belong. Yet, it doesn't stop them from screaming.
A Familiar Accusation From a Familiar Regime
The United States is committing the "greatest act of extortion in the country's history," according to the government of Venezuela. The charge reads like it was written by a keen marketing committee, with emotional language and sweeping claims that frame it as a moral outrage rather than a political tactic.
Their accusation is based on sanctions and diplomatic pressure tied to corruption, human rights abuses, and election manipulation. Caracas claims those measures amount to economic warfare rather than accountability.
