Maduro To Leave Venezuela

Norway NEGOTIATING Exit!!
{UPDATED: Sunday, September 1st, 2019}

Last week in this CubanINsider forum I said Venezuela's harassed President Nicolas Madudo was capitulating to vicious U. S. sanctions and had authorized his negotiators in Oslo to finalize his exile to another country. This week -- Thursday, August 29, 2019 -- Maduro gave China's Xinhua News Agency this update: "Contacts through Norway with Venezuelan opposition delegates have resumed. The next few days will bring good news about the dialogue."

With Counter Revolutionary Cubans IN MIAMI directing U. S. President Trump's all-out efforts to finally restore Little Havana zealots to power in Havana, the dire Venezuelan turmoil arose as a golden pretext. All opposition leaders in Latin America, such as Juan Guaido in Venezuela seeking to unseat President Nicolas Maduro, depend on Little Havana Cubans in MIAMI to dictate Republican Party leaders to do their bidding...financially, of course, but also, if necessary, militarily. That scenario will soon put Guaido in charge of Venezuela with a promised democratic election to follow. Maduro, in a compromise, will be allowed to exile to another country.

The exile of Maduro, agreed to by Guaido, would logically be to his longtime ally Cuba but it will more likely be to some other country -- such as Russia, China, El Salvador, or Turkey. However, within the bowels of the Rubio-Bolton circles, where regaining control of Cuba is most passionate, it is hoped Maduro will exile to Cuba...because, apart from Venezuela, that would give them added fodder in persuading Trump to complete his regime-change in Cuba.

So, the Stand-off in Venezuela between President Maduro and the U.S.-backed opposition leader Guaido is now essentially over, with Guaido the interim winner. Miami Cubans, rich Americans, and rich Venezuelans will rejoice about that. But any honest election in Venezuela will reveal two untidy facts: {1} Most non-rich Venezuelans actually prefer Maduro over Guaido; and {2} all of Latin America remembers past U.S.-sponsored imperialist regime-changes, including bloody coups, throughout Latin American from 1953 till the Nixon/Kissinger-backed 1973 coup that killed democratically elected President Allende in Chile to install the U.S.-friendly/blood thirsty dictator Pinochet for 17 bloody but lucrative years.

In other words, another Little Havana-directed Republican President, Trump, seen as orchestrating the denouement of Maduro and the empowerment of Guaido will have lingering aftermaths -- maybe more Latin American revolutions or perhaps even a war in America's backyard.

Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel and Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro remain close friends and necessary allies. But crippling U. S. sanctions have devastated both countries and Diaz-Canel is aware that Little Havana's primary concern with regime-change in Venezuela is to facilitate regime-change in Cuba. If Maduro's exile from Venezuela lands him in Cuba, Little Havana seems to believe it will be the last nail in Revolutionary Cuba's coffin because then, while Trump is President, the U. S. military would easily overpower Cuba.

Latin American opposition leaders like Juan Guaido in Venezuela know all the right phone numbers of the anti-Cuban zealots in Little Havana.

It is believed that, as far back as January of 2019, Little Havana's Marco Rubio assured Juan Guaido via phone calls that the Trump administration would install Guaido as Maduro's replacement as long as Guaido fiercely supported Rubio's Cuban agenda.

Meanwhile, Canada's hard-working Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland has been back in Havana this week trying to negotiate a bloodless end to the Venezuelan quagmire with her counterpart, Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez. If respected Canadian and Norwegian diplomats can be allowed to map out a sane path to peace regarding Venezuela, then perhaps peace in Latin America and the Caribbean will prevail over revolutions and war.

But rich and powerful Little Havana Counter Revolutionaries in Miami are seen as dictating Trump's Cuban-Latin American policies, and that bodes ill for America, Latin America, and Cuba. In the photo above shown promoting Marco Rubio as Little Havana's chief architect, that's Havana-born Lincoln Diaz-Balart at the media-crowded podium with his brother, Congressman Mario at his left shoulder. The Diaz-Balart brothers are unchallenged in Miami and in Washington, just like their father Rafael was beginning in 1959. Rafael had been a key Minister in Cuba's Batista dictatorship and, beginning in 1959, was one of the richest and most powerful Counter Revolutionaries in Miami/Little Havana.
