Walter Molina: "The earthquake is going to be the end point of Chavismo"

Venezuela has been struck by powerful twin earthquakes measuring 7.1 and 7.5 on the Richter scale, followed by significant aftershocks that have left the population in Caracas and coastal areas like La Guaira in fear. The government has failed to provide adequate relief, forcing citizens and international rescue teams to step in despite bureaucratic obstacles imposed by the regime. Politologist Walter Molina discusses the paradox of a repressive dictatorship coexisting with an absent state incapable of responding to the disaster. He highlights the deepening crisis in Venezuela, where over 46,000 people are still missing after the earthquakes, with little hope of finding survivors.
