I'm watching the images, but I confess that I do not understand what I'm seeing. The National Guard has given up one of the post of the Metropolitan Police.

The situation in Caracas has changed drastically in the last few hours. Right now we are looking at a popular uprising similar to the uprising of Paris in 1968. History teaches us that no government survives these types of uprising, the two possible answers, resignation or agression, ends in two similar ends, sooner or later... What would be the point of ending any chance of a political future? It's a wake up call to any Chávez supporter... If you really think your ideals are worth fighting for, this is the time to back up... Live to fight another day!

He is lying. The country is in a standstill. They can't ship food, because the ports are closed... Even now there are protests all over the city, street closing and pot banging. What he wants is violence...
