A Venezuelan General defected spelling bad news for Maduro's Socialist government. Without complete military support his government will not be able to withstand protest and calls for Juan Guaido to assume the presidency.

Socialist Venezuela has been rocked by protests for years and the problems have only gotten worse. But last month saw Juan Guaido declare himself interim president of Venezuela and garnered him massive support from Western Nations.

Far leftist Pro-Maduro protesters are not bowing out and due to propaganda it is hard to know what is actually happening. But with the defection of a General we may be seeing the end of socialism in Venezuela.
