Why do we need Venezuela

Why do we need Venezuela

Some say here: "What are you all about Venezuela, how can! We need to go about our business, and we put money in there, and everything disappears there!»Others, who seem to be against US interference in Venezuela's affairs, they say: “We are against US interference in Venezuelan affairs, because the United States can then interfere in Russian affairs ". But they have their own subtext: "Well, but in general, President Maduro, of course, does not represent anything good, his whole economy is ruined, because he is a socialist, almost a communist ". And from this comes the following slogan: any socialists, communists in Russia, in Venezuela, wherever, they can't do anything good, even if they want. But at the same time, we condemn the US policy towards Venezuela.

give razberёmsya. Venezuela is a large country in South America, almost a million square kilometers. This is more of Ukraine in 2 fold. Furthermore, this is south, so why do people live so badly there? Yes, the point is, what in Venezuela, as in Cuba, 90% territories are not suitable for habitation! We have this tundra, and they have it in the jungle. There are no roads, no normal soil, there is terrible humidity, clothes even rot. It is impossible to grow the cultures familiar to you and me there.: potatoes, tomato, because they require a temperate climate, not very hot. In some places, people still get there only by rivers. There are still many mountains. The Andes, the largest chain in South America, cross Venezuela. What can be grown there?

Before Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, who was our friend, Venezuela lived like Cuba before the revolution. Cuba sold sugar to America before the revolution, and bought everything from America, to toothbrushes and toilet paper. Venezuela lived exactly the same way before Chavez came to power. In the 1930s, they sold coffee and bought everything, including food. Then they started selling oil and buying everything else too.. Before Chavez, Venezuela was even called "South American Saudi Arabia", because in Saudi Arabia nothing grows and nothing is produced, they sell oil, and everything else is taken. Therefore, Venezuela has always been very dependent on the external market..

Next, the worst thing is the geographical curse of Venezuela and Cuba.. What do you think, It was much more profitable for Cuba to sell sugar? In America, which 150 km from Cuba, or to Russia, to the Soviet Union, to which 11 thousands of kilometers? And this is a given, it can't change! The same in Venezuela. Where Venezuela Could Sell Its Oil? In China, whether? Before China 15 thousands of kilometers! Of course, they sold to the United States and bought everything else from there. Therefore, Venezuela never provided itself with food.. Never. Not until Chavez, not later.

All, who considers Venezuela a freeloader, must understand: Chavez came to power in 1999 year, when oil cost 8 dollars per barrel, EIGHT! Now she stands 70! And everyone says: "Oh, so little, at all, horror ... "Who organized the sharp rise in oil prices in the early 2000s? Chavez. After all, it was Venezuela that at one time was among the founders of the organization of oil exporting countries (OPEC), which regulates these prices. Because of Chavez, our boom was born in the early 2000s, people started buying cars, consumer loans appeared. So it all happened because of Chavez!

AT 2008 year, oil prices fell since 140 dollars per barrel to 38, and Russia was instantly plunged into crisis. Who then helped raise prices back to the level 100 dollars per barrel? Not Chavez? So who's whose freeloader?

Venezuela is the first country in the world for oil reserves. Some people say: “All these villains have come to power, socialists, Communists, Chavez, Maduro, and the country with the largest oil reserves found itself in such a situation ... "But oil oil strife. Venezuela is the world's leading country in terms of reserves (Attention!) heavy oil. It even has its own name, "Orinoco oil", by the name of the main river of Venezuela. Regular oil flows, and "Orinoco oil" is viscous, it cannot even leak in pipelines, it's almost bitumen. To convert it into normal oil, you have to spend a lot of resources. And when Chavez came to power, in contrast to, what are they talking about, he said: “As for light oil, conventional, we - Venezuelans - will get it ourselves. As for heavy oil, which requires processing, costs, the, you are welcome, all foreign companies, welcome to venezuela!»And American companies came, and our Rosneft, and Chinese, and Indian. And when they say, that Chavez gave all the oil to the Russians, this is a blatant lie. And with Chavez, and before Chavez most of Venezuelan oil was sold in the USA. She is there now, basically, for sale, because it's close just.

And what Russia? they say: “We poured funds there, what for?»But under Chavez Venezuela either bought from us, either took a loan. We built a plant for the production of Kalashnikov assault rifles there.. What's this, export of raw materials? No, of course! People got jobs, and with us including. Who else takes these factories from us? Yes nobody. We have built a service center there for servicing all Russian helicopter equipment, destined for South America, that, if our helicopter breaks down, it would not have been taken from Peru to Russia to repair.

Now for oil. Rosneft is producing heavy, complex Venezuelan oil and sends it to India for processing. Earns Russia, earns Venezuela and our friendly India, which is part of BRICS with us.

Further, it was under Chavez that Venezuela became interested in our technology for the production of apartment buildings. You have no idea, how Venezuela lived before Chavez! Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, is surrounded by a chain of slums on the mountain slopes. These are cardboard boxes without sewage, without drinking water, without light. Chavez began to build houses for people, normal, how were you and me built in Soviet times. represent, what is human, living in a cardboard box, move into the house, even in a small apartment? Hot water, cold water, conditioners, heating! This is what Chavez spent his oil money on.

Further. they say, there is a lot of crime in Venezuela. Are the authorities of our friendly country, Venezuela, can't put things in order, especially in Caracas? Yes, there is no Caracas! Caracas is legally divided into several cities, each of them has its own mayor. Mayor of Caracas is gone. In Caracas, as in many Latin American countries, American system. I.e, there is a quarter for the rich, this is your city. There mayor, there your police, there are taxes. Near the slums. What taxes are there? Respectively, there are no police, nothing at all. And the federal authorities of Venezuela, i.e. Chávez or Maduro, there is no police at all by law, as in the US. In other words, the Venezuelan government cannot be held responsible for the crime, because she has no police. Police are subordinate to mayors or heads of state, who are mostly hostile to the government of Chávez and Maduro. If you and I don't know these things, us, of course, hard to imagine, what is happening in Venezuela.

They also say: “In Venezuela, people queue up in stores, even there they die ... no toilet paper, no medicines ". What Chavez Did, when he came to power? He made so-called "folk" shops with low prices for staple foods - rice, sunflower oil, chicken. What happened next? Resellers appeared, who bought it all in the bud at cheap state prices and sold it around the corner in 10-15 times more expensive. A resident comes to the store, "Folk", and there is nothing. But around the corner, all these folk goods are sold at a huge price.. Yes, the government tried to react, as in the Soviet Union, control was introduced, even army patrols, sold some products no more than one kilogram per hand. But it's impossible to control everything. As a result, the people began to grumble: “What is it, what kind of bolivarian socialism, when speculators only benefit from this ".

What to do? Venezuela does not produce these products itself, she buys them abroad, mainly in the US. not because, that she doesn't want to buy in Russia, but if you bring from Russia, then the products will be very expensive. know, what a difficult situation they are in? Of course, you could spit on everything and say: "Well, at what price do you want, for this and buy!"But the government there tried with the last bit of strength to somehow provide, so that the poor can buy staple foods at fixed prices in “people's” stores. Everything else can be bought at a regular store, but already, of course, at a different price.

Then they say: they have power outages in some cities, so much oil! I have already mentioned, that the oil is different there. Furthermore, 70% electricity in Venezuela is provided by only one hydroelectric power station, and regardless of, Chavez in power or not Chavez, in the reservoir, which drives the turbines of the hydroelectric power station, water level drops sharply during dry periods. And in Venezuela, like in any tropical country, it's rainy season, when rivers and all reservoirs are full. And there is a dry season, when not a drop falls at all. And before Chavez, there have always been these blackouts during dry periods.

Now about US intervention. Even before Chavez, all oil in Venezuela was produced by one state-owned company, Chavez did not create it. This state-owned company had American software., specialists, Technology, the engineers were either Americans, either people, who studied in America and idolized this country. Chavez comes to power, and what do they do? They do not give computer keys to a Venezuelan state company. It came to disasters: a tanker goes to Venezuela. No software, and the tanker almost ran aground because of this and did not die. Venezuelan programmers had to hack their own computer networks, to understand at all, how is Venezuelan oil distributed.

Farther. April 2002 of the year. CIA operation to overthrow Chavez, codenamed "Snake". After “oil strike” mass demonstrations begin in the wealthy neighborhoods of Caracas, where do white wealthy people live. Unknown people shoot at them. Who are these unknowns? Well, understandably, supporters of President Chávez. Shooting in progress - one frame, in another frame - killed people. And then it turned out, that these frames were not filmed, that in different places, and at different times even. But they put it together, and it turns out, that Chavez's supporters are shooting demonstrators. Then a group of traitorous generals, with which the Americans worked in advance, take Chavez by helicopter to a remote Venezuelan island. They make him take off his uniform, but Chavez is a military man, put on a tracksuit, to humiliate, give him a sheet of paper and a pen, they say: “We will leave you for 10 minutes. Your task is to write: the first is that you retire yourself, and the second is a suicide note, that I can not survive my resignation and commit suicide ". What Chavez Did? He put down the paper, took a pen. represent, what's going on in a person's soul, who knows, that in a few minutes he will simply be killed after these papers? And then the escort comes to him, ordinary soldier, who knew his president, and says: "The only thing, what can i do, this is to give you a cell phone ". Chavez calls his daughter, daughter contacts Fidel Castro. Fidel Castro goes on air immediately and says: “All the rumors about, that Chavez resigned and committed suicide – Lying! He is kept by force on such and such an island ". Chavez's supporters take to the streets of Caracas, who spoke, that he himself escaped in a helicopter, that he does not want to fulfill his duties. They walk to the presidential palace, where at this time is the inaugural ball of the new president of Venezuela, which the Americans put. It was the leader of the Union of Venezuelan Entrepreneurs, who social measures of Chavez were "against the grain". The crowd rushes in, the celebrants are trying to hide somehow through the back entrance. President "American" flees to Colombia. His name was Pedro Carmona. He lasted in power of everything 24 hours and went down in the history of Venezuela under the contemptuous nickname “Pedro Short”.

The same is what Americans are doing now. Here are supposedly protests, although they go to wealthy neighborhoods. There are counter-demonstrations in the poor, for Maduro. And they are not shown.

Another question. Should Maduro change economic policy? Yes, may be, Maduro is wrong in economic policy, but he is wrong because he wants to help people. So that every poor man can buy something with his money. And when speculators use it, then to poor people, government supporters, this, of course, I do not like.

They also reproach the Venezuelan government for dictatorial ambitions. Actually, Venezuela hosted a round table with the opposition, he walked for two years through the mediation of the Vatican. But the opposition has a simple principle: "Let Maduro go, and then we will discuss ".

What can be done in the Venezuelan economy? Carry out monetary reform. Then we have to start selling food to Venezuela. We have in abundance, eg, corn, you can start the production of some canned food. Venezuela is a huge sales market for Russia, they are willing to pay for it. they say: “Where did they get their money??»And here are the numbers: Venezuelan exports – 30 billions of dollars, Venezuelan imports - 20. That is, they 10 there are billions of dollars every year for, to pay for medicines and food. We can deliver everything to Venezuela for money. Thus, we will not only help stabilize our brotherly country, which recognized Crimea, by the way, which helps us everywhere, but we will also create a million jobs in Russia - in agriculture, in the processing industry.

The current regime in Venezuela, no matter how anyone treats him, our friend, he is interested in relations with Russia on a mutually beneficial basis.

If we leave them now, then at the most difficult moment, when they come for us, we have no one to rely on. This is the essence of foreign policy. If you want to have friends, do you want, so that they help you in a difficult time for you, so be ready to do the same for them, when it's hard for them!
