    Good for Maduro, a compassionate leader who speaks for so many of us around the world who have observed Argentina's slide from the accomplishments and happiness of the Cristina era into immiseration and repression with horror

    “ a compassionate leader ” yes right, and how many of the opposition leaders are in jail without being charged with anything, you are undoubteably a “ commie ” at heart. Name the accomplishments that Crissie bestowed on the population.

    Maduro is ranking right up there with other historical despots starving their people to death. Democracy is nearly dead in Venezuela.

    “called on him to work ever harder for the benefit of the people”

    But not his own people.

    He looks like Stalin, he acts like Stalin.

    Some very Wonky people post here. How anyone can post support for that despot Maduro is almost beyond belief? Obviously has never suffered a bog roll shortage! Dont believe the British bit either, its just another Paul Cedron/Nostril/Think manifestation sent by Brook Street.

    Maduros hyperbole is beyond belief too. Should be shuftied off to an alternative Universe forthwith.

    Maduro is the last person who should be speaking about repression and misery. Pot calling the kettle black doesn't begin to cover it. I can't believe you're not bothered by his attempts to sidestep democracy.

    English_Kirchnerist sorry but got to call out the nonsense.

    I know a Venezuelan, Maduro is a callous moron. CFK respected the constitution, Maduro does not. And while retail sales rise, stocks soar, and unemployment falls here, over there they are cooking human hot-dogs with the dead, and eating Iguana broth.

    AS an native Argentine I must thank Maduro for trashing the sob macri the European murderers and pedophiles need to be put in place by our democratically elected leaders. We want the sob Marci to free milagro salas and we want to know did Marci have Maldonado asasinated?. Strike strike strike death to Marci and his family.

    I love it. A supporter of La Asesina reduced to babbling incoherently. He even doesn't get that Macri was elected democratically. He must be distraught over getting cut off from the free choripans and Quilmes...

    It just amazes me, the news from Venezuela where people struggle just to feed themselves. Inflation looks to exceed one-thousand percent and the opposition is being banned from the electorate.
