More likely trying to enable democracy and a functional economy to once again exist in Venezuela.

Didn't they destroy it in the first place?

[–] Peaty 1 points 1 year ago

No they didn't. That was the result of years of absolutely moronic economic and monetary policy combined with a ton of theft by people at the top levels of government and the national oil company.

The USA isn't helping Venezuela's government to steal from it's people since they stopped getting a cut.
