According to a former Venezuelan commander whose name was not revealed, at least three different groups within the Venezuelan army planned a coup against Maduro’s government, the New York Times reported.
The blows would have occurred in the summer of 2017, March and May 2018, but none of the plans proved to be successful. Representatives of the US government have met with Venezuelan military officials since 2017. The military man would have requested financial assistance from Washington.
However, FRN’s parent organization, CSS, has found the likelihood that these attempts, and similar, are foiled during their preliminary stages by the Venezuelan security apparatus.
At the same time, the former Venezuelan commander noted that the country’s military has never asked the United States for military intervention.
The White House declined to answer questions about alleged talks with Venezuelan military, saying it was important to maintain a “dialogue with all Venezuelans who demonstrated a desire for democracy.”
