Just days after a high-level meeting in Rome this week, during which Russia reiterated a grave warning to the US – Moscow will not tolerate American military intervention to topple the Venezuelan government with whom it is allied - it appears Russia is taking no chances with its South American ally.
After the Rome meeting, Ryabkov said bluntly:
“We assume that Washington treats our priorities seriously, our approach and warnings.”
One of those warnings delivered by Ryabkov is understood to have been that no American military intervention in Venezuela will be tolerated by Moscow.
For his part, Abrams sounded as if he had emerged from the meeting after having been given a severe reprimand.
“No, we did not come to a meeting of minds, but I think the talks were positive in the sense that both sides emerged with a better understanding of the other’s views,” he told reporters.
“A better understanding of the other’s views,” means that the American side was given a red line to back off.
And now, according to journalist Javier I. Mayorca, Colonel General Vasily Tonkoshkurov, chief of the Main Staff of the Ground Forces - First Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Land Forces of Russia, arrived in Venezuela.
The Russian general arrived in the Bolivarian Republic accompanied by 99 servicemen. On board the An-124 delivered 35 tons of cargo.
Well we have some communist policies already in place but I wouldn't say we are full blown communist (yet, that is). But yes I do think there is a plan to bring us into third world communism by hook or crook, likely by long crooked hooked noses I'm guessing. So this could be the next planning for WWIII (which is well known at this point America is being set up to lose and take all the blame / in some ways rightfully so as much as I hate to say it).

Putin's a P👅SSY
Jordan King
He's just trying to protect an ally, even though it is a shitty ally to have. We shouldn't really be involved in this mess. Our military should be defending America from the invasions but nooooooooo, can't do that for some fucked in the head reason…
Benjamin Phillips
What the fuck are you talking about?
I was saying that I think David Putin's a pussy David Putin is a douchebag that goes to school with me.

Russia is cucked compared to usa
Eli Sanders
Please define the word "cucked". I would like to hear your definition.
Jose Watson
When you hate America (and their boss, Israel) and don't want to get bullied by them you ally yourself with China and Russia. Good strategy there Venezuela.
Justin Russell
Well, Russia and Venezuela are both experts at starving to death, natural allies.
Nathan Jones
It really sucks to live in a banana republic that dances at the whim of the USA, now we probably will see an increase of zogbots landing in our airports and doing falseflags blaming both Venezuelan government sympathizers or our own terrorist groups in order for them to be (((justified))) into using full force.
Jose Thompson
oh, so you were pretending to be retarded? okay, gotcha
Charles Reed
Venezuela has been eating manure for the last 15 years, their situation has been such that the entire latin american continent, except Bolivia and Cuba who are their paypigs and political boss respectively, want an immediate intervention there. Russia and China, having its only ally in the area in the form of that wasteland, have no other choice than keep perpetuating the rogue government. If i were them i would force a transition government to avoid the population going against them, because in one more year it's likely that Brazil, Argentina and Colombia will start smuggling guns and explosives to force a situation, any.
Bentley Cooper
You forgot Mexico. Our president isn't going to do the dirty work for the USA. Thankfully he got us out of that diplomatic bullshit fest that the (((media))) loves to shove down everyone's throat.
Christian Hernandez
Mexico's president is a big oddity to me, his cabinet is chuck full of jews and the congress, being mostly from his own party, is filled with people who were his opposition months earlier and are still acting as his enemies but in a seemingly more subtle way, as they tend to lean center-left than center-right from years ago, while he's a socialist leaning dangerously into the asymmetric economical relief aka early communism.
I didn't count the guy because his congress seems to do the opposite of what he says, along with him flip flopping a lot regarding socialist countries. My guess is that he knows shit can get fucked up any second and he's avoiding downright supporting Venezuela because his own policies might fail if the people start objecting his heavy u-turns. At least that's what economist articles say about him, and i believe them because his actions have downgraded Mexico's credit economy tenfold, all progress since 2000 has been nullified in last 2 years and instead of giving the international investors more options and trust, he cancelled 2 megaprojects and implemented another, mostly touristic, in one of the most dangerous places of the continent. He's reckless to say the least, but it seems the jaded population like him because he promised gibs.
Luke White
It's as if disregarding nationality, the mestizo underclass is united by the prospect of free shit wherever they are. It sickens me deeply.
Andrew Powell
B A S E D Russia.
The USA wants to topple the Venezuelan government, just as it did with Iraq, Syria, Libya, etc, after each of those countries stopped selling oil in US dollars.
Russia won't stand idly by and let the US rape another innocent country again. They are fucking heroes. Thank heavens for Russia (and China).
Many latino countries don't have a lot of nationalism because the culture and general life of their governors has always been foreign to the general population. In the 20th century things changed a bit with citizens and grunt soldiers reaching great places up, and many felt massive clashes in terms of class and objectives. Mexico is a special case too, taking into account it's a big chunk of territory with many different tribes, cultures and even regions. It's no surprise they suffer from this phenomenon the Russians/Soviets also had, in which most stuff regarding political decisions, media and entertainment don't fit with their perceived identity, making them feel isolated/minority and therefore behaving more aggressive towards their own countrymen, but without quite right identifying as a different entity. And in the long run this hurts the population because most politicians are also human, and make very biased decisions which either fuck everyone's shit up or fuck everyone's, except their hometown, shit up.
I'm highly against illegal invasions, but Venezuela is literally worse than an african country, i feel very bad trying to convince someone magnicide and major economical coup is the way to go but Venezuela being a shithole has more proof than many other major situations in the world. For moments i thought it was just a big propaganda system to invade them but truth to be told they need to get their bowels kicked. Just look at the data and tons of material from every piece of media available from every side, even Russians and Iranians. We are talking about a country which was as powerful as Brazil and got its economy shattered in only 4 years, and 2 years before the U.S. started making any kind of embargo or economical punishment.
Wyatt Walker
Whatever you think of Venezuela's living conditions, the USA's track record of completely destroying countries beyond repair after its interventions, should take any intervention option OFF THE TABLE.
Taking into account the USA's ulterior motives of maintaining the oil-dollar system just makes it even worse.
Even if you think someone should intervene in Venezuela, if you think the intervener should be USA/NATO, you must be a special kind of idiot.
There are plenty of starving countries in Africa that can use some intervention. Why not invade those? But they either don't have oil, or they are still selling oil in US dollars, so of course they won't be "saved"/invaded by the USA.
Venezuela being the most oil-rich country on planet Earth, and with other oil countries like Iraq, Syria, Libya etc having being destroyed for their oil, Russia is doing the world a favour by defending telling the USA to back the fuck off.
Jonathan Jenkins
Mrs. Russia cheated on Mr. Russia and got pregnant. Mrs. Russia never told Mr. Russia that they are raising Mr. Israel's son. Mr. Russia has no idea that he has no children, and that his bloodline will die when he does. Mrs. Russia will tell Mr. Israel's son who his real dad is, after Mr. Russia dies.
Kayden Baker
Well again, Russia is only looking out for their interests, as is the US. Both governments are corrupt and NEITHER government gives a flying shit about the people of Venezuela.
The really sad truth is, its about the resources that Venezuela has…. NOT the public. The "aid" is really just a stunt, on both sides I might add. No one gives a shit how miserable their lives are.
Charles Torres
Russia is a Fat Lipped Wide Open Used up Pussy. To be more clear. N America doesn't want Venezuela. We just use it as a Template to secure a Non Socialist government. Allowing Venezuela to fail on it's own.
Jack Gonzalez
Mexico is still "Governed" by Drug Cartels.
Noah Evans
Great place to live= venezuea where the people drink piss water instead of fresh. Do Not Say 'pissed off' to those folks.
Michael Anderson
Yeah and just allow all the shitlizelians to be able to immigrate as (((political asylees)))
Brandon Barnes
Except their "rogue government" is a legitimate government elected through the best democratic process in south America. I'm not even memeing, look up the reports from the Jimmy Carter center. The only thing rogue about them is that they, like cuba, refuse to bend the knee the the usa. Basically every other country in South America still has a government established by CIA coup or are accepting very large amounts of foreign aid. Try reading articles that don't come out of countries under the shadow of the uncle sam. Otherwise you will never read anything against us economic interests.

Even though Venezuela is a shit country, there is no right to intervene in their affairs. What they want to do is up to them. The sad part is - as usual - citizens are always the victims of cancerous governmental corruption and negligence. This is so fucking typical its sad really. I'd have no problem seeing the Venezuelan government collapse, however it is up to those citizens to make that happen. We should stay far away from it, and focus on securing our own damn borders!
Jason Sullivan
spic citizens are the worst kind of opportunistic turncoats to ever exist, you don't need to feel sorry for them. They bring misfortune upon themselves almost on a daily basis.
Camden Powell
With the way the Western world relies on total debt insolvency, we won't end up much better off than Venezuala in the future so don't kid yourself. Its not about race, its about fiscal policies. You become what you adopt.
John Reyes
Putin is of forgetting a policy in place in this hemisphere before Moscow had paved roads. Please Putin, send your soldiers to Venuzla. You only have two combat ready divisions, right? So split your forces between syria, ukraine, and venuzla. so when we execute the sudden destabilization of Russia you have no troops availible. And then once Russia is ours the smaller countries will fall easily. Thanks for the keys to the kingdom, Putin the Short.
I have some bad news for you, some of Russia's military equipment is (admittedly by the US govt) stronger than ours. The Russian military has advanced A LOT over the last decade and I've read some scary shit they have in store if WWIII were to ever break out.
Invading Russia wouldn't be easy either, all other armies in the world made that mistake already and all lost those wars. Here's why: 1) Russia is massive, it has 11 different time zones and most of it is hell frozen over (very cold) which puts any invading force in jeopardy, naturally. 2) Russians are actually pretty well spread out, and many Americans may not know this but yes many are also armed today too. 3) Now Russia has China on their side…. this is not like the old days folks. They have another significant ally who can also pose a serious challenge to our military as well (and China has also been advancing militarily not to mention they have over 1 billion soldiers ready-to-go).
So this is the reason US hegemony is becoming a thing of the past. We no longer live in the 1950s, those days are OVER.
Brayden Peterson
1) Simo Haya 2) Cars 3) If Russia has China on thier side(which we all know China will stab them in the back once they get weakened by the US) it won't be much different than when Russia Allied with Hitler in '39 to invade Poland. I know your state run media tells you that Putin and Winnie the Pooh are very tough. But until China can retake Taiwan or Russia can invade Latvia I'll sleep tight. Think of the Turmoil China or Russian will fall into when thier strongman dictator dies and the cronies fight over the scraps… We in the US change power every two years and four years and six. A strong republic fears little from President for Life third world countries. But we will always have a hand out to help those who want freedom in thier countries. Unless we have a fleet stationed there, RIP Baharianis
OK, but don't be disgruntled if WWIII breaks out and whole societies get ruined and we crash back into pre-internet days from multiple EMP attacks all over the place. And don't expect me to fight those wars either, I'll be hunkering down, not going to be some ZOG bot fighting their wars.
Carter Carter
Not at all. I'm saying the risks are too severe and outweigh anything good that could ever come from such a world war. If you actually think Russia is going to send ALL their troops offshore you are kidding yourself, that would be suicide for them to do. No, they'll be there and waiting. And they have plenty of land mass to counter invading armies.
Jaxson Ortiz
The logistical difficulty of war with Russia in the winter is not much of an issue now. We developed this technology during the cold war because war with Russia was expected to happen. The army actual trains for winter conditions now at the Northern Warfare Training Center in Alaska. Russia is surrounded by U.S. allies and the U.S. could easily launch operations from them no problem which is a serious handicap for Russia. Russia can not manage a modern war on multiple fronts and theaters like the U.S. can. The U.S. can be involved with multiple wars at the moment. We had several going on during the war on terror. Most nations are going to side with the U.S. over Russia in a war. Russia even admitted to this during the cold war, that's why they develop so many devastating counter systems, but at the end of the day, it's an army which wins wars, not systems and I do admit that even the U.S. has fallen for the systems meme. Every generation seems to until war breaks out and they realize conventional ground forces is still the only way to win a war.
Cooper Myers
POTUS Pompeo Bolton Rubio r all criminals When's Q going to point that out? SABOTAGE OF VENEZUELA POWER GRID. I HATE AMERICANS THEY CANT see 5heir govt's r responsible for much of misery in world
Cooper Collins
russia being massive and spread out is actually an advantage for any invaders, also china and russia are not friendly
Lincoln Flores
Seems like none had cared to evaluate the actual hell the people have gone through for the last few years, before the USA even had a mouth in it.
The people could have taken up arms at any time, instead they weakly died for years.
The USA, all of latin america, who cares who it is, someone needs to invade and repair that country.
Of course it wouldnt be an issue if the country didnt owe billions to china and russia.
And it wouldnt be an issue if there was no oil there.
Everyone would be begging the USA or someone else to help them becuase the only thing to gain would be the recognition of helping them.
No matter who has control, the country is insanely in debt especially to communists countries and will need to rebuild if maduro is assadinated or brought to justice.
It would be great if the people would just grow some balls and fight back.
But instead they spend years being starved and shot until the region becomes nothing but place with a president of dirt and oil.
Dig deeper folks. There is a ton going on there.
Tyler White
russia fears china more than the us, in fact even the us fears china more than russia at this point. any "attack" on russia by the us would be testing them to see how they react it wouldn't be a full on assault. russia is not a threat to the us, it might threaten (us interests) here and there but it is a far cry from the soviet union.
