Intervention, the only way to stop them from becoming a soviet-like petro state justou south of the united states is to put severe oil sanctions on to cut off the flow of oil revenue. because maduro s making those payments because he knows if he doesn t, his creditors will seize venezuelan assets. paul: now, as we said, the u.s. has imposed sanctions on maduro, other venezuela lands, but not venezuelans, but not the oil so far. are you opposed to that? the cubans are saying what do we care if maduro has his assets frozen in the united states? it s a ridiculous slap on the wrist. i do think normally i m not in favor of unilateral action like that, but i do think in this case it could make a difference because most of the oil, much of the oil thatne venezuela sends to other countries like china and russia, they don t get any money more that that. they are repaying debt with that oil. ....
We re back with dan hen ger and march henninger and mary t anastasia o grady. the unicameral legislature was the only thing standing in his way of total control. he began to try to get rid of them back in march by just out and out firing them. that didn t work, so he announced that he was going to have this election. venezuela has not had a free,fa fair and transparent election since at least 2004 when thehe country tried to recall hugo chavez from power, ask that was completely rigged and, unfortunately, the u.s. state department recognized that, and it s been downhill ever since. paul: and maduro didn t want toe have a referendumming last year on his rule, and if he had if they had been able to force that, then he would have had to have stepped down, or they would have had to have a new election, correct. yeah. there s a lot of talk about how getting rid of the assembly is ....
Subject. paul: showdown in venezuela. protesters take to the street protesters take to the street under we demand a lot from our eyes every day. i should know. protesters take to the street under i have chronic dry eye caused by reduced tear production due to inflammation. so i use restasis multidose. it helps me make more of my own tears, with continued use, twice a day, every day. restasis multidose helps increase your eyes natural ability to produce tears, which may be reduced by inflammation due to chronic dry eye. restasis multidose did not increase tear production in patients using anti-inflammatory eye drops or tear duct plugs. to help avoid eye injury and contamination, do not touch the bottle tip to your eye or other surfaces. wait 15 minutes after use before inserting contact lenses. the most common side effect ....
Cuba runs the passport office in venezuela, giving them passports that allow them to move across borders. they were showing up in canada with these venezuelan passports, so there s a security, there s definitely a security risk, and there s a risk of this spreading of this dictatorship all over the south american continent. paul: the example, on the other hand i take mary s point, but on the other hand, the utter failure of venezuelan socialism is on display for everybody to see.e and the rest of latin america is, obviously, saying we don t want to go down that route necessarily unless, of course, you re in bed with the cubans and want to enforce the same kind of dictatorship. well, i think they do, and there s another detail that s worth talking about. venezuela is an oil power. they have oil wealth about equal to saudi arabia. this is a petro states, and maduro is staying this power because of the oil revenue coming into that country.ta short of a military ....
Going to make venezuela into a dictatorship. it s been a dictatorship, but it s been a slow, gradual consolidation of power. this would be the final straw. but last year his ability to block that recall vote is an example of how, you know, they re just not going to leave, and he s dug in there and, of course, he supported and is held in power by cuba. so they re not going anywhere. paul: so step back a bit and tell americans, i mean, apart from the human suffering which is horrendous, which we should all care about, why should americans care what goes on in venezuela right now? one of the big problems is that venezuela is trafficking drugs very aggressively through, from colombia, through venezuela into the united states with the help of cuba. but another problem is that the maduro regime and chavez before him was also bringing middle eastern extremists into theas country, giving them passports, ....
