(20,582 posts)Three key figures of the Venezuelan opposition Leopoldo Lopez, Maria Corina Machado, and Antonio Ledezma all of whom have to varying degrees been connected to the radical sector of Venezuela's opposition, happened to sign and distribute the following communique on February 11, a mere day before the coup plot that President Nicolas Maduro denounced was to take place.
Leopoldo Lopez, Maria Corina Machado, and Antonio Ledezma
To what extent did these three individuals know of the coup plot? We do not know yet, but the fact that they came out with a statement a mere day beforehand, for a National Accord for the Transition of the Maduro regime, suggests that they must have known about the plot. National Assembly President Diosdado Cabello did name Antonio Ledezma as one of the individuals who was supposed to sign a statement in support of the coup.

Would the U.S. or Canada tolerate a plotted coup against the gov't? No. Why should Venezuela?
Check out the replies and pics in this locked thread - one down, anyway. I hope every one of them is thrown into prison.
