Honestly, this feels like such a useless thing to do.
The man is not in office, has no real power in the government, and currently isn’t even the leading figure in the opposition.
They did the same with Guaidó, and it made the man a fucking joke, at least in LATAM. That might have had a positive effect in other parts of the world, but here? It feels like a mockery, a consolation prize for those acknowledged as the defeated.
This doesn’t mean anything. Maduro retains power in Venezuela. It doesn’t matter what outsiders say about their elections or government. What matters is the reality on the ground. And when people need oil, they will still come crying to Maduro.
