In the midst of what may end up being the umpteenth US military intervention in a sovereign country in South America, in this case direct and without the need for the School of the Americas or the CIA to destabilize to apply the Monroe doctrinea viral image has emerged in the midst of all the tension generated by nearly three months of .
The crown jewel of the American Navy and aviation, the aircraft carrier USS Gerald Fordthe latest generation fighters F-35 and the bombers B-52as well as 15,000 troops, combat helicopters and long-range missiles Tomahawk. It is the deployment of forces with which the Administration to hit drug trafficking – although it is already taken for granted that what it seeks is a regime change in another oil country-.
But this image of military power worthy of Hollywood has once again become eclipsed with a simple speech of Nicolas Maduro. Yes, a speech worthy of the Latin Grammys. The president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela has been leaving scenes as histrionic and striking as they are viral all this time. In the midst of the information of Reuters which suggest that Maduro had already spoken with the US about , giving rise to an interim presidency of Vice President Delcy Rodríguez for a later electoral advance, the Venezuelan president has made a turn in the face of a US refusal. A turn with dance included.

Surprise appearance by Maduro: “Monday, rumba; Tuesday, rumba; Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, double rumba…”
In all this time, Maduro has called the Venezuelan civilian population to join ranks and has managed to gather a militia of 200,000 members who have learned the use of rifles and basic military tactics. , but in all those messages and warnings there has been a clear component.

But the ‘scene’ came after the following phrase: “And more rumba. Until the body can take it!” It was the starting signal for a Maduro who He started dancing to an electronic music song… with Maduro’s phrases calling for peace. On top of the stage, the president twerked and stomped on the stage while songs like “yes peace, yes peace, not war” sounded. This is the same president who was already surprised at the beginning of the US threats.
