On the very day Nicolás Maduro met a Chinese diplomatic delegation at the Palacio de Miraflores, he was captured just hours later—a moment of poetic justice. Imagine the delegation, deep within the #China???????? Embassy's second basement at Av. Orinoco with Calle Monterrey, Urbanización Las Mercedes, Municipio Baruta, Caracas 1060, #Venezuela????????, while the events above convey a stark, symbolic message: alliances do not guarantee protection, and power can shift abruptly. ????This scenario resonates far beyond #Caracas, sending a clear signal to #Beijing, #Managua, and #Havana that the era of impunity for entrenched authoritarian regimes in the Western Hemisphere may be drawing to a close— deliberate, and strategically timed.
