🇺🇸🇻🇪 | Estados Unidos iza su bandera en Caracas después de siete años.

[Ryan Saavedra @RyanSaavedra]

🚨 Interesting details via NYT on why the Trump admin decided to not back María Corina Machado as Nicolas Maduro's replacement, and it has nothing to do with her winning the Noble Peace Prize:

-Trump was persuaded by arguments from senior officials, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who said that if the United States tried to back the opposition, it could further destabilize the country and require a more robust military presence inside the country. A classified C.I.A. intelligence analysis reflected that view

-Senior U.S. officials had grown frustrated with her assessments of Maduro’s strength, feeling that she provided inaccurate reports. They also grew skeptical of her ability to seize power in Venezuela.

-Richard Grenell, Trump’s envoy, met with Machado’s representatives and asked them to arrange an in-person meeting with Machado in Caracas and for a list of political prisoners they wanted liberated. But the in-person meeting never happened. Machado, despite promises from the American delegation that she would be protected, refused to meet with Grenell.

-Over time the relationship deteriorated, according to people briefed on the interactions. Machado and her team ignored the request for a list of political prisoners

-Grenell repeatedly pressed Machado to outline her plan for putting her surrogate candidate, Edmundo González, into office after she was barred from running. He grew frustrated when she expressed no concrete ideas of how to put the democratically elected government into power.

-Machado was upset that Grenell did not forcefully denounce Maduro as illegitimate. Grenell told colleagues that such a statement, while true, would have undercut his diplomatic outreach.

-Categorical rejection of any talks or contact with Maduro’s government has been a bedrock of Machado’s political strategy, but it has crippled her ability to build a broader coalition capable of enabling her bid for power.

-Machado’s unequivocal support of sanctions has destroyed her relations with Venezuela’s business elite, which had built a modus vivendi with Maduro to continue working in the country after a quarter-century of his government’s rule.

-Machado’s economic advisers have argued that every dollar going into Venezuela was a dollar for Mr. Maduro, a radical stance that had alienated many members of Venezuela’s civil society working to improve living conditions in the country. Her message had increasingly begun to mirror the views of the diaspora and deviated from the realities of people who remained in Venezuela.

-Machado’s team and allies in exile took to social media to attack and discredit public figures whose work deviated from their views. These actions cost Machado the support of members of the Democratic Party and many businesspeople, American and Venezuelan, who had interests in Venezuela and influence in Mr. Trump’s orbit.

-Orlando J. Pérez, a professor of political science at the University of North Texas at Dallas, said of Machado and her allies: “They don’t have the levers of power. They don’t have the institutions, and without us over assistance, they’re not going to get back into power in Venezuela.”
