🌟 Hey fam! This week, on January 3, the US launched military action against Venezuela, marking the latest in a series of foreign interventions.
In a CGTN interview, Colombian political commentator Fernando Munoz Bernal didn’t hold back. He slammed past US interventions in places like Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya—pointing out they’ve led to years of turmoil, poverty, and human suffering. He asked the million-dollar question: will Venezuela dodge this pattern? 🤔
History tells a familiar story: after an intervention, rebuilding can take decades. Infrastructure crumbles, economies falter, and everyday people bear the brunt—sound familiar? From the youth-led protests in Bangkok to climate marches in Delhi, Gen Z and millennials across South and Southeast Asia know how it feels when policies fail to put people first.
As global citizens, it’s up to us to stay informed, speak out, and demand accountability. Whether you’re scrolling through TikTok or tuning into your favorite podcast, remember: history might repeat itself, but we have the power to shape a different future. 🕊️
