Hundreds of thousands took to the streets of Caracas yesterday in solidarity with President Nicolas Maduro and defending the legacy of Hugo Chavez and the Bolivarian Revolution.
They were marking the 30th anniversary of the 1989 Caracazo uprising when thousands of Venezuelans “broke the chains of imperialism.”
Thousands poured out from the barrios onto the streets of the capital and the nearby city of Guarenas in protest at rising prices of basic goods.
Concessions to Washington by the post-Maduro leadership in Caracas are designed to preserve the core of the Bolivarian Revolution not betray it, argue Roger D Harris, Francisco Dominguez and Mara Paez Victor. How the solidarity movement responds is critical
