She is a great woman, but hoping that giving her medal to Krasnov would change, would win him over, was naive.
Reporters asked Krasnov if Machado should be installed as president of Venezuela since it's estimated she beat Maduro with 80% of the vote.
Krasnov's reply, after he took the award, was that Machado doesn't have the support within or the respect of the country.
Krasnov has been supporting Delcy Rodriguez, Maduro's VP, or in other words, a continuation of the corrupt administration. The only difference between Maduro and Rodriguez is that Rodriguez is willing to sell its heavy crude at cheap prices to the US which has refineries along the coast set up to refine heavy crude. Eventually the Venezuelan heavy crude will replace the heavy crude that the US is getting from Canada.
No wonder Big Oil is keeping gasoline prices low for Krasnov.

She is pathetic in that she gave the man child a medal so she MIGHT be given the reins of power by a megalomaniac. He won't - and even if he did she will forever be marked by her citizens as a weak person. The Nobel committee really screwed up giving her a peace prize. So many other deserving people were available.

(4,930 posts)against our country, and tried to overturn an election is NOT A GREAT PERSON. Add to that, her support for someone who has persecuted her fellow country people by refusing to give them due process, and just deporting them, has the same mindset of Maduro.
She is an embaressment to her country, and to the Nobel Prize committee.

(6,227 posts)Always remember too that the people trying to suck up to Trump are self-interested themselves. They think Trump can give them something - especially money and power.
I think Drumpf knows this and has no respect for these people because theyll latch onto his arse like a leech. Theyre all self-interested fleas.
