Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Corina Machado said political leader Juan Pablo Guanipa was taken by force in Caracas.

Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado said her opposition colleague Juan Pablo Guanipa had been kidnapped just hours after being released from detention.

The Nobel Peace Prize winner said on Sunday that Guanipa, leader of the Justice First party, was taken in the Los Chorros neighbourhood of the capital Caracas.

“Heavily armed men dressed in civilian clothes arrived in four vehicles and took him away by force,” she wrote on social media early on Monday.

She was literally telling oil magnates in the US on a recorded video call that if they would just convince the US to invade they would all get billions in oil contracts.

Unless she was telling someone about her true, passionate love for the policies of Trump, I don’t get why you’re replying to me.

US invaded Venezuela, so ICE started operating there by kidnapping Venezuelans and sending them to Venezuela.

It’s hard work, but at least it isn’t honest.
