There was a naval blockade, and while it lasted it was condemned by the Left opposition. The current statu quo now is different from the situation in December 2025: now US and Venezuela have diplomatic relations, high ranking Trumpist officials have visited Caracas and received red carpet treatment, including the CIA director, the US manages the commerce of Venezuelan oil, the law was quickly and without any democratic discussion reformed to better suit US interests. Delcy Rodríguez and other high ranking members of the Venezuelan regime talk about Trump in friendly terms. The Venezuelan government has also condemned the Iranian response to US and Israel's attack. There were of course many alternatives to this outcome, total capitulation was the route adopted by the Venezuelan government. While US crimes should be condemned always, the fact that the Venezuelan government chose this path certainly tells us what kind of government it has been all along. It should not be above any criticism. Those who claimed the Bolibourgeoisie was socialist, revolutionary or anti-imperialist should admit they were wrong all along and think again about what Venezuelan workers and socialists have been criticizing all these years.
