While Venezuela is not a democratic example like Ukraine, the echoes of Russia's invasion of Ukraine as Trump moves US military assets toward the Venezuelan coast are certainly there.
"Maduro spoke to the Venezuelan people on Monday, asking them to prepare for an invasion.
"In the face of this maximum military pressure, we have declared maximum preparedness for the defence of Venezuela," Maduro said of the deployment, which he characterized as "an extravagant, unjustifiable, immoral and absolutely criminal and bloody threat."
He deployed troops along the coast and at the border with Colombia. He also urged Venezuelans to enlist in a civilian militia.”
