      You’re right 😂

      Imperialism and annexation is good when Venezuela does it!

      Also your sources are god awful. They exclude a massive amount of information and hyperfocus on bicarre tangents.

      Again, the security council unanimously gave their response. Are you saying China and Russia are wrong?

        Don’t make me tap the sign.

        Are you saying China and Russia are wrong?

        They’ve been wrong before. They’ve been wrong recently. This is a national question regarding Venezuelan sovereignty. It is not China or Russia or any other global power’s business. The UNSC sanctions the shit out of the DPRK for having the audacity to protect themselves, for one example.

            What is it then? What is the word you would use to describe a country using hard power to annex its neighbors for their resources?

            “Friendly negotiations?”

            “Trade agreement?”

            Two wrongs don’t make a right.

          Are Castro and Chavez also wrong in this case? I’m taking the same stance that Chavez took when he rescinded the claim. I’m sure you’re right though; Venezuela annexing it’s neighbor for money and resources is a wonderful idea.

          Are you also saying that countries cannot be locally imperialist to their neighbors through expansionary polices? You don’t have to the the second coming of the British Empire.

            Tell me with the straight face that the motivation for this is not money, resources, and capital. Through the means of militarily annexing a neighboring country.

            You can still be a local imperialist if you yourself are oppressed. Is Venezuela not taking an expansionary stance through economic and military means to increase their regional power and resource control?
