Is the Crisis in Venezuela a "Setback" for China? Eric Olander on Sinica with Kaiser Kuo

In this special bonus episode, Eric speaks with Kaiser Kuo, host of the popular Sinica Podcast, about China's response to the U.S. military intervention in Venezuela and the capture of President Nicolas Maduro. Many U.S. and European analysts have framed Maduro's downfall as a "setback" or even an "embarrassment" for Beijing, but while that may be true, Eric argues that it's also premature to make such declarations less than a week after Maduro's downfall. After all, U.S.-led military interventions in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya all started well but ended up being very costly failures for Washington. 📌 Topics covered include: China’s reaction to Maduro’s detention Why “China setback” claims may be premature Beijing’s messaging vs. Chinese social media Why Venezuela ≠ Taiwan China’s economic exposure in Venezuela The rise and fall of oil-backed loans What “all-weather partnership” really means Panama Canal risks for China Limits of U.S. hemispheric leverage China’s Latin America knowledge gap Beijing’s coup-response playbook Military lessons—and misreadings Instability as a threat to China’s trade model What signals to watch next Join the Discussion: X: @ChinaGSProject | @eric_olander Facebook: www.facebook.com/ChinaAfricaProject YouTube:    / @chinaglobalsouth   Now on Bluesky!
