European Far-Left Rage over Ousting of Socialist Venezuela Dictator Maduro
European Far-Left Rage over Ousting of Venezuela Dictator Maduro
Socialists across Europe reacted with outrage over the Trump administration's successful capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro.
Socialists across Europe reacted with outrage over the Trump administration’s successful capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro on Saturday morning.
In a pre-dawn series of strikes and raids ordered by U.S. President Donald Trump and led by the elite Delta Force army unit, Nicolás Maduro and his wife were captured and are set to face criminal charges in the United States over suspected narco-terrorism.
The toppling of Maduro will likely lead to the end of nearly three decades of socialist rule in Venezuela, during which time the oil-rich nation was reduced to one of the most impoverished countries in South America after previously standing as one of the most prosperous.
Despite a record of economic failure, countless alleged human rights violations, and accusations of using electoral fraud to remain in power, the regime in Caracas has long enjoyed the support of socialists in Europe, including former UK Labor Party leader Jeremy Corbyn, who praised former socialist leader Hugo Chavéz upon his death in 2013 for having supposedly shown “that the poor matter and wealth can be shared.”

Far-left indignation was not contained to Britain. Across the Channel, former presidential candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon, whose socialist La France Insoumise (France in Rebellion) party has been accused of aligning with radical Islamists, described the U.S. action as violating Venezuela’s “sovereignty with an archaic military intervention and the heinous kidnapping of President Maduro and his wife.”

Meanwhile, Ines Schwerdtner, the co-leader of the German Die Linke (The Left) party, which is the direct descendant of the communist ruling party of the now-defunct East Germany during the Cold War with the Soviet Union, accused the Trump administration of “state terrorism”.
“Hands off Venezuela! Whoever violates international law and allows presidents to be kidnapped is engaging in brutal state terrorism. In the case of wars of aggression that violate international law, there must be no double standards. The federal government should immediately condemn the US attack,” Schwerdtner wrote on X.
Commentary:
The more Europe complains, the more we should begin withdrawing our equipment from the stockpiles we have in NATO and prepare a withdrawal.
We negotiate and work with Venezuela on it's fate, NOT Europe!
When the impotent left in Europe leadership squeals you know you’re over the target…
The globalist elite in the EU and around the world are upset right now. A big chunk of their Socialist agenda has been disrupted by Trump. So was the flow of drugs that dumbs down society making the addicts compliant with their NWO agenda which is Socialism on steroids. Control of the masses is the goal.
