  3. #Brazil's #Lula wins a historic fourth term, while, like father, like son, #Bolsonaro refuses to concede. While it's brilliant to see the result, the left needs to start working on an effective successor to Lula, and that search needs to start right now. #Brazil also needs to take a leaf out of the right-wing handbook and start building left-wing alliances across #SouthAmerica.

  11. Imagine a country so pathetic that all US needed was to kidnap their president to turn them into willing prostitutes of the invading army with absolutely 0 resistance.

    This is just sad.

    Venezuela's state airline, Conviasa, has announced the total suspension of all its flights to Havana, Cuba, by the end of October, according to DatoWorld, as the US tightens its blockade on Cuba especially targeting the tourism industry, the island's biggest source of cash income.

    ■ "After being Cuba's closest ally for 25+ years, and a co-driver of regional integration, the Venezuelan government is now collaborating with the US' murderous blockade," commented Venezuela Analysis.
