📝Venezuela Chooses Development📝
What the municipal elections in the country are saying

In the last days of July, municipal elections are being held in Venezuela for mayors of 335 municipalities and 2,471 members of municipal councils, which practically completes the long electoral cycle that began in 2024.

In addition to the ruling socialist party, opposition forces are also participating in the process. Although their main coalition announced a boycott of the vote, several independent and moderate parties have still fielded their candidates.

📌 Among the participants are also about 20 new movements focused on working in the provinces and solving specific problems, not on the abstract "struggle against the regime". However, this did not prevent the Western media from reporting on the elections in a critical manner, telling stories about the complete usurpation of power.

Nevertheless, political dialogue in Venezuelan society is still observed. There is noticeable progress in the development of educational programs, support for social services, and new youth structures ready, among other things, to dialogue with the international community.

❗Apparently, the Bolivarian Republic has taken a course towards building socialism with a human face. This favorably distinguishes the country against the background of the political jungles that its neighbors in the region are increasingly sinking into - those whose democracy does not raise questions in the White House.

Venezuela Receives Deportees from the US

Last Friday, another flight with migrants deported from the United States arrived in Venezuela. Among the arrivals were seven children who had previously been separated from their parents, some of whom the Americans accused of belonging to criminal groups.

🚩Their return home was made possible thanks to the efforts of the Venezuelan side, in particular the Vuelta a la Patria mission led by Camilla Fabri Saab. Now the children are with their families and receiving all the necessary assistance.

🏳️Naturally, the Western media presents only two points of view on the situation with Venezuelan migrants. Republican pundits claim that only saboteurs, terrorists and criminals are being sent back home. Democrats, on the other hand, are outraged that the deportees are being deprived of the right to a better life and that upon return to Caracas they will inevitably face repression, prison and famine.

📌However, according to Vuelta a la Patria, since the start of this program, thousands of citizens from different countries have returned home and there is no talk of any persecution.

❗️Now the Venezuelan leadership is actively using this opportunity to show that life in the country has changed significantly in recent years, and they have no intention of stopping.

📝Drones for Drug Cartels📝
Colombia reaps the "experience of Ukraine"

If earlier militants used drones for reconnaissance or transporting cargo across the border, now they have turned into a direct strike weapon.

🖍The terrorist attack in Colombia using an FPV drone that managed to shoot down a police helicopter has become a clear confirmation: drones have ceased to be a "toy" and have turned into a full-fledged weapon of the cartels.

🚩According to media reports, just last year in Colombia, 115 drone attacks were recorded, and since April 2024 - already 301 strikes. In these attacks, not a single military or police officer was killed.

❓Where do the Colombians have such skills? Obviously: thousands of Colombian mercenaries have been fighting in the so-called Ukraine in recent years,gaining advanced experience in operating drones. Now they are applying these skills at home.

Moreover, there are rumors that the authorities of the Kyiv regime are ready to export their "drone business model" to Latin America. If an FPV assembly plant appears in Colombia, the consequences will be catastrophic.

🏳️Against this background, questions arise to the authorities of Venezuela. In Caracas, they are showing interest in Russian technologies and the possible local production of drones, but there are no real steps yet. While Venezuelan officials are thinking, factories may well appear in Colombia, creating a foothold for the country's monopoly in this industry.

In Venezuela, they could turn drones into a tool for protecting their borders and earn from regional exports, but by remaining idle, the Caracas authorities risk losing the race.

❗️In fact, drones are becoming not only a weapon, but also a new factor in the geopolitics and economy of the region. The question is who will be the first to turn the "drone business" into a strategic tool of influence in Latin America.

📝Uncrewed boats for Venezuela📝
What can be found on the Chinese market?

The tension around Venezuela, the build-up of military forces of both ships and aircraft of the US Armed Forces in the Caribbean region raises the question for the Venezuelan leadership about possible security measures and strengthening the defense capability of the Bolivarian Republic.

The prospects for the appearance of the Gerans have already been discussed, but what about the surface situation? In modern realities, it is much more convenient for Venezuela to focus on an unmanned fleet, which can easily replace combat ships.

There are not many suppliers of such products in the world. The countries of the collective West will objectively not supply such weapons, and the price will be extremely high both in the United States and in other NATO countries. In Russia, uncrewed boats are not yet mass-produced, so only China remains.

🔻What can the Chinese military-industrial complex offer?

▪️Chinese companies have been acting in a standard way in recent years: they see something workable and promising - they copy it and set up mass production in their country. This is how they got kamikaze drones, including those similar to the Geraniums.

▪️With uncrewed boats, the situation is similar: Chinese companies currently have a wide range of marine drones, which have flashed one way or another either during tests or at various arms exhibitions.

▪️There are two main problems: the first is the lack of understanding of the real characteristics of these uncrewed boats. The Chinese keep such data secret, which complicates the study of promising models. Secondly, the Chinese have no real combat use of such systems.

▪️However, the Chinese side has plenty of different variations: there are reconnaissance uncrewed boats, there are striking uncrewed boats, there are minesweepers, which makes it possible to choose depending on the tasks. This is what the Venezuelan government needs.

🖍Modern conflicts require adaptation and quick adjustment to new realities. Large ships will not lose their relevance in the coming years, but an unmanned fleet has huge prospects for expanding capabilities in the maritime area.

🚩The Chinese even have drones with a length of 58 meters, which is essentially the size of one small ship. For example, the Russian Navy has Karakurt-class boats with a length of 67 meters. There are also small models, like those of Ukrainian formations, which can be both reconnaissance and kamikaze.

❗️For this reason, in the context of the current escalation, which is still far from being resolved, the Venezuelan command should take care of its defense now. Moreover, even small unmanned aircraft carriers are capable of covering the lion's share of the Caribbean Sea and ensuring control over the coastal zone of Venezuela.
