PSUV is a Marxist party that stresses the importance of anti-imperialism and has strong ties to Cuba. They reformed their party after gaining power to become democratically centralized, a Leninist party structure. Maduro is said to study Stalin for policies.
The PSUV is a coalition of various left wing groups. It is overall not a ML party and does not claim to be one. There are very likely MLs within the party but they do not dominate it.
And why has the actual Communist party, who are self declared MLs, distanced themselves from Maduro and recently have claimed they are being attacked by the state?
The Venezuelan revolution did not begin Marxist-Leninist but became ML after gaining power and that’s the only reason they are still in power.
How is Venezuela ML?
