CIA on the Ground: The US Prepares for War with Venezuela | Kajsa Ekis Ekman

Why are US warships parked off the coast of Venezuela, killing civilians? And is this the prelude to a full-scale war, a decapitation strike aimed at President Maduro himself? We dive headfirst into the escalating tensions between the United States and Venezuela, trying to make sense of this crisis.

To help me understand, I'm joined by Kajsa Ekis Ekman, a Swedish Activist, author and journalist, who is currently the editor in Chief of Parabol Press. Kajsa has worked for many years on the US obsession with regime change in Venezuela, which is what we want to discuss today.

We explore the tangled web of US oil interests driving the conflict and unpack the long history of bizarre and failed coup attempts. Our conversation also delves into the propaganda war, from Nobel Peace Prizes to economic sanctions, and explains why Venezuela's military has remained loyal throughout the turmoil.
