Briefly about the development of the crisis in Venezuela
Colonel Cassad, Feb 1 2019

  1. The European Parliament by a majority vote of recognized appointed from Faschingstein “President” legitimate leader of Venezuela. It is expected that soon similar statements followed from other European institutions following in the footsteps of Faschingstein politicians. Actually, the situation with Venezuela once again demonstrates that the EU has been, and remains a vassal education in the military-political and economic dependence on Pindostan and a separate frondeurs does this situation not change, at least for now.
  2. According to the statement, Maduro said he personally asked Moscow about the political and diplomatic support, as well as hopes for completion of existing contracts in the field of armaments, and to further cooperation. Unlike the Pindo puppet, Maduro is willing to guarantee all investments of the Russian Federation to Venezuela, while the opposition has said that the terms of the contracts will be revised. In this situation the choice of Moscow is extremely obvious. If Maduro falls, Russia will lose significant funds, in addition to a military-political and diplomatic influence. Therefore, there will be different measures for Maduro to resist. China will act in a similar vein, the more that to his rate many times higher.
  3. Maduro continues his visit to army units to strengthen the loyalty of army units and check their readiness in the event of foreign intervention. Review of the 42nd airborne brigade here. Review 41 armored brigade here. Considering the ongoing threats to Chavistas and the army leadership, working with the military a necessary and helpful as those in the case which have to shoot to kill, you have to be 100% sure.
  4. In Colombian territory near the border with Venezuela near the city of Kokuta was seen a large group of military transport helicopters. The Helicopters were Pindo. In Colombia came the head of SOUTHCOM, Adm Craig Faller. It was also reported (though we have no photos yet) about the arrival in Colombia of USAF military transport aircraft.
  5. Yesterday’s opposition rallies was quite sluggish and a lack of pictures which would demonstrate broad public support from Faschingstein-appointed puppets. Main support for Guiado in Caracas is the rich areas in the South and South-West of the capital, where the positions of the opposition parties have been traditionally strong. But large-scale protests, which have gripped and paralyzed the whole capital would be to organize opposition until you can. Therefore promising a “soon to negotiate with the military” and expecting financial tranche from Pindostan (we are talking about the sum of $20m), the opposition with the help of social networking (with massive support from the USA) is trying to shake more large-scale protests. Rallies in support of Chavez of course get ignored, as they do not fit into the imposed image of the “tyrant against the people.”

Regime Change In Venezuela: Army Defectors, Russian Mercenaries And Disappearing Gold
South Front, Jan 31 2019

Over the past few days, the intensity of anti-government protests in Venezuela has declined despite attempts of the Pindo-led bloc to warm them up through both public and clandestine measures. However, the conflict continues to develop amid the acute standoff in the media sphere between the Maduro government and its opponents backed by the Pindo-led bloc. On Jan 29, CNN released an interview with two “Venezuelan army defectors” who appealed to US President Donald Trump to arm them to defend “freedom” in Venezuela. They claimed to be in contact with hundreds of willing defectors via WhatsApp groups and called on Venezuelan soldiers to revolt against the government of President Nicolas Maduro. one of the alleged defectors, Guillen Martinez, told CNN:

As Venezuelan soldiers, we are making a request to Pindostan to support us in logistical terms, with communication, with weapons, so we can realize Venezuelan freedom.

Another one, Hidalgo Azuaje, added:

We’re not saying that we need only Pindo support, but also that of Brazil, Colombia, Peru, all brother countries that are against this dictatorship.

During the entire clip, these persons were presented in a manner alleging that they had just recently defected and are now calling on others to follow their step. However, therein lies the problem. The badges on their uniform say FAN, which stands for Fuerza Armada Nacionales. This is an outdated pattern, which has been dropped. Now, Venezuela’s service members have a different badge, saying FANB, which means Fuerza Armada Nacional Bolivariana, so either the “Venezuelan army defectors” somehow lost the letter B from their uniform, or the entire interview is a staged show involving former Venezuelan service members who have been living for a long time outside the country, or in the worst case, are simply actors. The interview came amid increasing Pindo political, media and sanction pressure on the Maduro government. NSA Bolton was even spotted with a mysterious note about the deployment of 5,000 Pindo troops to Colombia, the Pindo vassal which borders Venezuela. In this situation, a large-scale military uprising or at least formation of some opposition within the army would become a useful tool in a wider effort to overthrow the country’s government. On the other hand, the use of such CNN-styled content shows that so far Pindostan and its vassals have achieved little success in buying the support of Venezuelan service-members.

On Jan 29, Venezuelan lawmaker Jose Guerra claimed via Twitter that a Boeing 777 of Russia’s Nordwind Airlines landed in Caracas on Jan 28 to spirit away 20 tons of gold bars from the country’s central bank. These would be worth some $840m. When asked how he knew this, Guerra provided no evidence. By Jan 30, these items of breaking news had rocked the headlines of most of the MSM. Another version which was also quite popular among pro-opposition media, was that the plane, which reportedly made the trip directly from Moscow, moved in a group of Russian private military contractors to support the Maduro government. This version is fueled by reports claiming up to 400 Kremlin-linked PMC fighters may have arrived in Venezuela. The developing crisis is also accompanied by the growth of citizen journalism. Bellingcat members already created a Twitter page named “In Venezuela” which provides field news about the crisis from Toronto. It’s easy to expect some “open source intelligence investigations,” revealing the crimes of the Maduro government against peaceful protesters very soon if the conflict escalates further.

Roughly speaking, the MSM presents the audience with the following story: The Maduro government is about to fall and is already moving the country’s gold reserves somewhere via Russian planes. At the same time, Vladimir Putin sent his mercenaries to rescue Maduro and to keep the corrupt regime in power in order to secure Russia’s economic and political interests. This, as well as the oppressive nature of the regime, are the only reason why the forces of good have not yet achieved victory. Fortunately, there is the shining knight of democracy, Juan Guaido, who was democratically appointed as the Interim President of Venezuela by Faschingstein. He and his Free Venezuelan Army (FVA), consisting of hundreds of WhatsApp defectors and a group of unbiased Pindo/NATO-funded citizen journalists and investigators, are ready to stand against the Maduro-Putin alliance and to defend freedom and democracy in Venezuela … with a bit of help from the Trump administration, for sure. There are no doubts that modern Venezuela is allied with Russia, or that Moscow will employ its existing influence to resolve the crisis and thus defend its investments and oil assets. Furthermore, Maduro and his supporters showed that they are not going to give in to the Pindo-led pressure. At the same time, the level of MSM hysteria, including an open disinformation campaign against the Maduro government and attempts to demonize it through various means, including its ties with Moscow, show that the Faschingstein establishment is serious in its regime change efforts, and may even be ready to instigate a Syria-style “proxy war” in the country in order to achieve its own goals.

Pindo Army Commander Will Soon Visit Colombia, Fueling Concerns About Pre-Planned Military Intervention In Venezuela
South Front, Feb 1 2019

Pindo Army South Commander Maj-Gen Mark Stammer will soon arrive in Colombia, according to local broadcaster Caracol, which cited anonymous military sources. During his visit, Stammer is in charge of strengthening cooperation with the vassals and developing strategies in the region to face threats and improve security strategies. SOUTHCOM, of which Army South is a component, was established to conduct operations in Latin America. It is responsible for 31 states and 15 territories in Central and South America, and the Caribbean. Colombian Defense Minister Guillermo Botero said:

Stammer’s visit was pre-planned and that it is happening at the same time that Pindostan is pushing for a regime change in Venezuela is purely coincidental. It is a pure coincidence, it could have happened a week before, or fifteen days later, it was scheduled for this date, there is nothing exceptional.

A Pindo army EO-5C reconnaissance aircraft was spotted flying secret missions in Colombia, adding to suspicions that it might be spying on Venezuela. The EO-5C spy plane is based on a Canadian DHC-7, a four-engine turboprop aircraft, suitable to carry some 50 passengers or a load of cargo. Aircraft of such type appear to usually lack any large military markings and overall look more like a regional airliner rather than a spy plane that one would expect to be packed with large and distinctive sensors. On Jan 31, Reuters said that a senior Venezuelan official claimed that the country will sell 15 tons of gold from central bank vaults to the UAE in coming days in return for euros in cash, and that the sale of the gold reserves that back the bolivar currency began with a shipment on Jan 26 of 3 tons and follows the export last year of $900m of mostly unrefined gold to Turkey. Reuters also cited Guaido as saying that he had sent communications to Russia and China to attempt to persuade them to back his side in the attempts to topple Maduro. Also on Jan 31, the European Parliament recognized Guaido after a vote that passed with 439 in favor and 104 against, with 88 abstentions. Following the decision, the EP also urged the EU to follow suit and recognize Guaido instead of calling for new elections. The record shows:

MEPs urged EU Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini and member states to also recognise Guaidó as the only legitimate interim president of the country until new free, transparent and credible presidential elections can be called in order to restore democracy. MEPs condemn the fierce repression and violence, resulting in killings and casualties and demand the de facto Venezuelan authorities to halt all human rights violations, to hold those responsible for them to account, and to ensure that all fundamental freedoms and human rights are fully respected.
