Potential Proxy War in Venezuela November 26, 2025
Not only did we see an unexpected meeting between Russian and American leaders, but the US began to encircle Venezuela, and Israel called up its reserve troops to continue its attack on Gaza. At the time, I questioned whether Putin had given Trump the green light to surround Venezuela, as Russia was its primary protector.
Remember that Venezuela was one of the wealthiest, most powerful nations in the world before it turned to socialism. In 1950, Venezuela ranked near the top globally in terms of income per person, and the oil boom boosted the nation before everything imploded in the 1980s.
China is currently one of Venezuela’s top trading partners. Moreover, China does not want the West to have unilateral power to impose regime changes without pushback. Now, China has condemned the attack on Venezuela, but that is quite different than pledging direct support. The cards have been laid on the table, and the leaders of the game are prepared to fight on a new front if needed. Stretching the West’s military to the brink, fighting on so many global fronts, may be a strategic long-term play. |
