Venezuelan Editorial: Government ‘Benefits from Chaos’ After Disasters

A Venezuelan opinion piece has sparked debate by claiming that the country’s government thrives on chaos. Published by El Carabobeño, the editorial argues that earthquakes and collective tragedies often mark the end of an era, and that Venezuela’s ‘anti-fragile’ state structure allows the government to benefit from such crises. The article states: ‘Nuestra realidad politica parece beneficiarse de esta tragedia,’ suggesting that political reality in Venezuela is shaped by disaster. The commentary reflects a broader narrative about the Maduro administration’s resilience amid ongoing economic and social turmoil. While presented as opinion, the piece has drawn attention for its provocative framing of governance and crisis management in Venezuela.
