I wonder if this will change their oil export strategy, and whether this means that the US might try to to a Guiado 2 electric boogaloo

Only a troll farm could produce such a shit-take. Guiado was voted president by the Venezuelan people, but petro-dictator-for-life Maduro got his ass saved by Russia.

Have fun trading with the Russians in BRICS though! They can’t even afford socks for their soldiers in Ukraine, they’re wearing foot wraps God’s sake!

You're quoting Wikipedia to support your position and the article doesn't even say what you're arguing.

Oh, then maybe cite those! Highschoolers do it all the time.

Also the article doesn't claim Guiado was elected by the people.
