franco + 96 FM February 8, 2018 Having no opposing candidate is the best outcome for Venezuela. It delegitimizes Maduro in a better way than a cooked election result with a fake opponent. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pavel + 384 PP February 8, 2018 Perhaps one more obvious nail but he is already delegitimized. This requires some kind of intervention. They will not be ousted in time otherwise millions of desperate Venezuelans will pay the ultimate price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
