Sooooo Milei has awarded the seat of Attorney General of Argentina to a *former* (cough cough) neonazi.

 Brazil is reinforcing the relevant borders

quote:

Brazil's top diplomat for Latin America and the Caribbean, Gisela Padovan, said the main road connection between Venezuela and Guyana is through Brazilian territory due the inaccessible terrain of the Esequibo, but its use in any military action would not be accepted by her country.

"We are following the situation with concern. I do not believe it will come to an armed conflict," she said in an interview on Monday in which she urged a peaceful resolution.

Joint US/Brazillian operation to keep an authoritarian socialist country from invading a democratic socialist country explicitly for oil will make for some very strange discourse.

We need the oil money to fund further anti-imperialist activity?

Right now it's because this is somehow all Exxon's fault and so *really* the Venezuelan military would be invading Exxon.

Yeah, he would never; More likely he would try to make everyone sit togheter and find a peaceful solution

But I dont think Venezuela will invade either

edit: I dont know whats happening inside Venezuela now but I would bet there some internal politics reason for Maduro to be making that noise. And that it is just that: noise

As I understand it (and posted about yesterday), any Venezuelan invasion of Guyana would have to pass through Brazilian territory and they're like nah

They're deploying their own forces to the region to discourage Venezuelan aggression.

Autogolpe is a term we're seeing a lot these days.
