A US escalation of its war on Iran carries the threat of world recession, climate catastrophes and horrendous levels of fatalities and suffering. The anti-war movement must be preparing to oppose any escalation and work to achieve a wider mobilisation.
The U.S. attack on Venezuela is merely the latest step in an increasingly open path of U.S. military aggression – the U.S. enabling Israel’s genocide in Gaza, creating the war in Ukraine through NATO expansion, following from the bombing of Serbia in 1999, the invasions of Afghanistan in 2001 and of Iraq in 2003, and the bombing of Libya in 2011.
The overthrow of the Bolivarian Revolution would enable the US to control Venezuela’s oil and help sustain the US’s faltering economy, as well as shore up the rhetoric of Trump’s ‘America First’ agenda.
US imperialism intensely craves Venezuela’s oil reserves, the largest in the planet.
And it cannot tolerate independence and sovereignty in its ‘backyard’.
The people of Venezuela again defeated a US-led coup. Elections in Venezuela are fair, but subject to US interference. The solidarity movement continues to call for the lifting of all US illegal sanctions and for a stop to US criminal interference in its internal affairs.
The China-Venezuela relationship has been greatly upgraded, placing Venezuela among the very highest relations that China holds with any other country.
