1/5/26: Trump Threatens Cuba, Mexico And Colombia, Maduro Internal Betrayal

In this book, Eva Golinger presents irrefutable evidence from US Freedom of Information Act documents showing that the United States knew about and funded opposition efforts, including the 2002 coup attempt against Hugo Chávez. Drawing on historical US interventions in Latin America, she details how wealthy Venezuelan elites collaborated with Washington to undermine Chávez's democratically elected government amid his challenges to US global authority through oil policies and poverty reduction initiatives. The book includes extensive appendices of reprinted documents linking evidence to events year by year.
