For Vasquez to support the presidency of Mercosur to The 'Little Bird' aka Chubby Chávez's poodle Maduro would be like giving the keys to the madhouse to the dumbest inmate.

But, being a good commie himself, Vasquez will do it.

What he will never do is to retain it himself, he has far too many problems of his own in Uruguay.

Hasn't Vz breached the “democracy” clause yet? I would have thought imprisoning a leading member of the opposition on trumped-up charges would have been enough!

Maybe there’ll be “a Venexit”, that will crash the value of the Bolivar, and send markets around the world tumbling.
