VENEZUELA AT BREAKING POINT…
Venezuela looters target chicken, flour amid worsening shortages…
Venezuela protesters fear Maduro will cling on at all costs…
Venezuela wastes away…
“Protests that rocked the Venezuelan capital over the weekend are the latest signs of a simmering crisis that’s threatening to boil over in the South American country.
Rival factions of pro- and anti-government activists took to the streets of Caracas, a day after President Nicolas Maduro declared a “constitutional state of emergency.”
Maduro said his emergency declaration aimed “to tend to our country and, more importantly, to prepare to denounce, neutralize and overcome the external and foreign aggressions against our country.”
He has also called for military exercises to take place next weekend to prepare for “any scenario,” including a foreign invasion.
But while some marched in support of the government’s push for a “state of constitutional exception and economic emergency,” which is expected to extend into July, not all are as patient.
Anti-government demonstrators accuse Maduro of clinging to power as his country crumbles. People throughout the country lack access to food and basic healthcare.
At times, they can’t even turn on the lights — the government says extreme drought has hampered the country’s hydroelectric capabilities.
There are product shortages; there is raging inflation that has annihilated salaries; and there is rampant violent crime.
All of this is leading to widespread anger — culminating in the sort of protests seen over the weekend, as well as the outbursts of looting and violence that are marring this once-stable nation.”
