I don't like this. I hope Castillo and Peru Libre can learn from the examples of Venezuela and Bolivia and build power outside the government.

    Didn't Russia send troops to Venezuela when Guaido was trying to do a coup?

    I feel like China generally doesn't like to get militarily involved in anything, which makes sense given how much of the Soviet economy had to be devoted to military spending to protect themselves from the West.

        with Lula winning in Brazil next year, that should help too.

        just a little though, lula is already going around the country making deals with the most disgusting right wingers (as usual), i expect his next term to be even more neolib than the first

        still voting tho... in the current situation if lula keeps the universities running i'm honestly good (don't call me a lib i'm just entering college and i'd like to be able to finish it)

            succdem traitor who destroys left wing credibility

            the vast majority of communists here pretty much consider him as such already

            he has always been a liberal and openly so, it's just that his rhetoric used to be strong and the propaganda pounced on it
