I spoke with Latin America correspondent for Press TV, Camila Escalante, about what she saw and heard on the ground in Caracas, Venezuela, before, during and after the recent Presidential Election.
A well-travelled, longtime correspondent all over Latin America, Camila brings a deep understanding of the history of the country and region, and of the people. With ample experience in Venezuela in years prior, she speaks with first hand knowledge on the positive changes in the country, in spite of the brutal Western sanctions against the Venezuelan people.

-The US is manufacturing a crisis in Venezuela so that there is chaos and ‘needed’ intervention
Countries like Venezuela, Cuba etc. which oppose US hegemony are subjected to crippling US sanctions – i.e. collective punishment – and relentless regime-change coup attempts by the corporate-controlled U.S. The corporate-controlled U.S. has a war-based economy which relies on relentless wars. With 800+ military installations in 140+ countries worldwide, the corporate-controlled US has immunity from international laws and other accepted norms etc. Driven by insatiable greed, empires never settle for peaceful coexistence. Empires never settle for anything less than total ownership and control of the world’s natural, human and financial resources. The 20 year-long Princeton University research in 2014 revealed/confirmed the US is not a democracy or a republic, it’s a corporate-controlled oligarchy which serves the corporations not the people. Humanity urgently needs real democracy in the corporate-controlled U.S., fraudulently disguised as ‘democracy’. The US still illegally controls 80% of Syria’s oil fields. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/apr/21/americas-oligarchy-not-democracy-or-republic-unive/
