Four months after US forces captured Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro and removed him from power, Venezuela remains caught between economic reform, political uncertainty and unresolved questions about democracy.

A new analysis published by The Conversation argues that while the country is beginning to reverse years of socialist economic policies, many of the structures that supported Maduro’s government remain firmly in place.

Following Maduro’s capture by US forces in January, Vice President Delcy Rodríguez assumed leadership of the country and has begun implementing economic reforms with support from the Trump administration. [Read more…] about Trump may have removed Maduro – but Venezuela’s future is still unclear

The private talks at the White House lasted about three hours on May 7, although neither side issued a formal joint statement afterward.
