25 April 2023 at 16:41. The idea that external players can topple an undesirable leader in a rival country is good for a Hollywood movie. The script of this kind of movie can take place at the CIA compound, which has many buildings, including the ‘Coup Building’, the ‘Revolution Building’, the ‘King Building’ and even the ‘Interim President Building’, so when the Director of the CIA enters one of these buildings, then he can determine which leader will be at any rival country, still, if the Movie Director chooses the ‘Interim President Building’, then the movie has the most promising prospect to win an Oscar.
Based on the idea of this script, over a few years, the Western countries and even the Western media decided that Juan Guaido is the president of Venezuela instead of President Nicolás Maduro. Everyone in the West insisted on calling Juan Guaido, the Interim President of Venezuela, while the West referred to Nicolás Maduro as NOT the President of Venezuela. Classical Hollywood movies are usually longer ones, so even the period of the Interim President of Venezuela was longer. At some point, cracks started to arise - some Western countries stopped calling Juan Guaido the Interim President, while starting to call Nicolás Maduro the President. In a Hollywood movie, these cracks absolutely do not arise because the interim president topples the undesirable leader.
The case of the Interim President of Venezuela should remind us that a transformation regime can occur only if internal players would like the change and act for the change, as happened in Portugal on this day in 1974 via the Carnation Revolution.
