Let Venezuela Breathe!

“Venezuelanalysis.com has regularly provided very useful description, analysis, and commentary on developments in Venezuela, rarely available in the US or the West generally, and valuable for a balanced understanding not only of Venezuela but of Latin American generally in the current very exciting phase of its history.”

“Venezuelanalysis is an invaluable resource for anyone who wants to know what is happening today in one of Latin America's most dynamic countries. Unlike most mainstream media reporting about governments in Latin America, Venezuelanalysis provides a sorely missed counterpoint - presenting a progressive perspective on the news from Venezuela that is in-depth and also takes the views of the country's poor majority into account. Please support venezuelanalysis.com.”

"Venezuelanalysis has been an essential tool not just for those trying to keep up to date with developments in the Bolivarian revolution, but also because it provides an invaluable space for critical discussion about the process. This is particularly important given the role that the media plays in opposing the advances of the people. For this reason alone, the Venezuelan revolution needs websites like this, which in turn need your support to keep going."

"Never has a country, its people, its politics, its leader, its myths and truths been so misreported and lied about as Venezuela in the past decade. Not only has Venezuelanalysis done much to correct this with its scrupulous attention to facts, both obvious and concealed, it has opened up a unique space for genuine critique of one of the world's most imaginative popular movements. I can't think of another website on the web more deserving of support."

"A must-read for anyone who wants to follow what is happening in Venezuela, especially in English. Factually accurate and timely information."

"For years, the U.S. major news media has engaged in a war of hysteria and lies against the Bolivarian Revolutionary process in Venezuela. I look to Venezuelanalysis regularly as a vital source of news and analysis from a progressive perspective. I highly recommend it as an indispensable source of truth, sober analysis and advocacy for activism."

"Venezuelanalysis has been an indispensable source for many of us for well over a decade."

"As Trump steps up his threats to Venezuela and efforts at 'regime change,' we also see an increase in misrepresentation in much of the media, as part of international attempts to isolate and demonise Venezuela. That is why the long-standing work of Venezuelanalysis in giving the other side of the story is so important - please urgently give them your support."

"While mainstream media functions as a Mighty Wurlitzer for Washington's planned recolonization of Latin America, Venezuelanalysis is pushing back with slashing, independent journalism. Venezuelanalysis not only offers readers the crucial political context denied to them in the pages of the Washington Post and New York Times, it exposes them to the revolutionary reality that is still living and breathing - but under sustained assault - in Venezuela today."

"For years Venezuelanalysis.com has been the gold standard in reporting on Venezuela and the Bolivarian Revolution. Its independent, critical reporting is always balanced and provides far more in the way of in-depth information and insights on Venezuela and other ALBA nations than any other single English-language source. It is notable in giving voice to grassroots movements. With so much distortion in the U.S.-dominated international media, Venezuelanalysis.com's continuing public role is essential. Recent attempts by Facebook to take down the Venezuelanalysis.com facebook page are therefore a grave concern. With Venezuela increasingly subject to economic sanctions imposed by Washington, it is all more essential that this independent voice be preserved. Please support this indispensable outlet."

"With so much misinformation about Venezuela, it is important to have an objective voice to provide an accurate alternative to the disinformation being peddled by vested interests."

“Venezuelanalysis is a refreshing corrective to the one-sided reporting in the establishment media on Venezuela. While sympathetic to the interesting and novel developments taking place in Venezuela, Venezuelanalysis is hardly a mouthpiece for the Chávez government.

“The kind of objective and critical analysis found on its pages is especially important given the current ideological vacuum at the world level. There is a lack of credible proposals for transformation at a time when the old system is becoming increasingly discredited. Only the right in the United States seems to be clear about what it wants. It is thus of paramount importance that the experimental path that Venezuela is currently going down be objectively reported upon and analyzed.

“Venezuelanalysis publishes nuanced articles on internal developments in Venezuela, but not so with regard to international relations. With the activation of the U.S. Fourth Fleet last year (without consulting any Latin American nation), the U.S. decision the following year to utilize seven bases in Colombia, as well as the escalation of the war in Afghanistan (including the mass use of drones) at a time when withdrawal from Iraq is highly incomplete, there is little doubt as to who represents the greatest threat to world peace. Venezuelanalysis provides important information on this front as well, as it applies to Latin America. In short, Venezuelanalysis offers useful detail and analysis on pivotal issues that is unavailable from other media sources.”

"Informed journalism of the type provided by Venezuelanalysis is more necessary than ever, especially in the current atmosphere of intoxicating main stream media demonisation and misrepresentation against the Bolivarian government in Venezuela."

"In these uncertain times, Venezuelanalysis is a crucial resource for reliable and grounded reporting on Venezuelan politics."

“Mainstream media coverage of Venezuela tends to be overwhelmingly negative and biased against the government. Venezuelanalysis.com is an extremely useful alternative news source that provides more nuanced, in-depth pieces and, most importantly, explores developments and issues in Venezuela that are critically important for understanding the political and social changes there, yet are typically ignored in mainstream coverage. The content often includes criticism of policies and actions of the Venezuelan government, but from a progressive perspective, rather than merely echoing the extreme views of right-wing opposition sectors, as mainstream outlets often do.”

“Venezuelanalysis is an invaluable source of information, a tribune of independent analysis and honest reporting.”

“For Latin America solidarity activists in Australia, venezuelanalysis.com is undoubtedly one of the most valuable sources of information and analysis of developments in Venezuela’s Bolivarian revolution. As a voice for the Venezuelan people’s struggles for sovereignty, democracy and justice, venezuelanalysis.com plays an indispensible role in educating and inspiring many of us on the other side of the world to build understanding and solidarity with one of the most important people’s movements for a better world for all.”

"Venezuelanalysis has always been the resource of choice for principled and scrupulous information and assessments of Venezuela."

“Through their rigorous, nuanced and informed reporting, Venezuelanalysis has become the essential first port of call for anyone wanting to cut through the media war on Venezuela.”

“Around the world the private media dominates the airwaves, the press, the internet, depriving people of their own voice and popular expression. Internationally and internally there is a big campaign of private media lies against our revolutionary Bolivarian process, against our president and against the Venezuelan people. We are struggling against imperialist domination, for sovereignty, for control over our own resources, for control over our own destinies and to break the logic of exploitation of the capitalist system. I want to congratulate Venezuelanalysis.com for reflecting the reality of our struggle.”

“Venezuela Analysis has been an important source of balanced information regarding Venezuela, Latin America and the Caribbean since its inception. Currently, as the months go by, one has to appreciate even more so the work that Venezuela Analysis is doing. This web site, through the devotion of its talented team of journalists and writers, is increasingly contributing to the world-wide serious opposition against the media war being waged by Washington and its principal allies with one sole objective as far as Latin America and the Caribbean is concerned: To take back what the US considers to be 'its own backyard.' Even though I specialize in the Cuban political system and US manoeuvres against this island, Cuba is not an island unto itself in the political sense as far relations with Venezuela and the south.

In fact, the whole region is bubbling with debate and discussion on participatory democracy, 21st century socialism and sovereignty while taking into account the history and traditions of each country. For this reason Venezuelan Analysis is of great assistance in my work and thus I encourage all those who are interested in Latin America and the Caribbean to strongly support Venezuela Analysis.”

“Venezuela Analysis is my primary source on all things Venezuela. When people ask where to look for information and analysis about Venezuela, I point to it first, second, and third. Why? Because the writers and editors are incredibly well informed and eloquent, have their eye, ears, and minds situated amidst the events, and because the reporting and analysis is biased in the best way possible - it unabashedly takes the side of the country's poor, whether this means being in support of or critical of government policies.”
