Even Latin America doesn't recognize the sham result.

Majority of OAS did not condemn Maduro.

This is the first article in days on the Washington-bankrolled 'opposition leader' Gonzalez and he really gets scant mention almost as an afterthought.

Told you he would fade from view and relevance to the sound of the world's smallest violin playing just for his sponsors.

Election denial conspiracy theorists at it again.

Better to be a small violin than to be listed among the world's psychopaths like Maduro.

Non-UN authorized (illegal) sanctions - the last recourse of a scoundrel when their nasty little colour revolutions failed. Dastardly stuff.

Non-UN authorized (illegal) sanctions

I'm sure someone will take up that legal case someday: when they are done prosecuting Putin and the entire RAF for war crimes.

Unlikely to happen on both counts: agreed.

One fact is certain, the colour revolution fizzled and flopped.

Most of the world forgotten about the non-entity who staged an escape to Spain, moved on and recognized Maduro as the legitimate leader.

Who is this "most of the world"? Is this where you say Xi recognized Maduro therefore 1.4 billion people love Maduro?

The legitimate countries that have outwardly condemned Maduro are in a severe minority - not even balancing that for population.

As pointed out, even the OAS refused to condemn Maduro.

Once again we are told that not condemning/sanctioning is the same as supporting. I guess this is what passes for friends in Russia.

Sour lemons because the Colour Revolution/coup was defeated.

The US imposes ridiculous and arbitrary sanctions, demonstrating its desperation and geopolitical tantrum knowing that it continues to lose its world hegemony, now that Venezuela will be the next member of the BRICS in October, it will now be impossible for the US to impose sanctions, what a new and wonderful world the BRICS promise ..

It's funny how those who are freaking out about American judges throwing out charges against those who 'disputed' the last American Presidential election are freaking out about Venezuelan judges against those who 'disputed' this Venezuelan Presidential election after 'disputing' the previous 3 by making claims of rigging etc that have been even more thoroughly debunked than the claims those 'disputing' Biden's win advanced.

Wumaos are upset because they only control the poorest countries in the world and everyone else wants no part of their medieval nonsense.
