SUMMARY:Venezuela on the Brink - ANNULÉ
DESCRIPTION:Conférence du Cérium
\nRésumé:Venezuela is again in the hea
 dlines\, with opposition leader Juan Guaidó declaring himself the country
 's interim president and being recognized by numerous countries including 
 the United States and Canada. Guaidó also appears to enjoy significant su
 pport amongst much of Venezuela's population. Meanwhile President Nicolás
  Maduro retains the support of Venezuela's armed forces and a not-insignif
 icant fraction of the population\, despite presiding over one of the worst
  economic collapses in global history. To further complicate matters\, Don
 ald Trump has repeatedly threatened military action\, and just imposed deb
 ilitating oil-sector sanctions on Venezuela. What brought Venezuela to thi
 s point? And what might be done to avert a catastrophic civil war?
