It is critical to go in depth and defeat superficiality. History, therefore, is essential. Such a great conversation with superb experts helping to contextualize the current moment in US-Venezuelan relations, across Latin America & the hemisphere, + globally🗃️ #UNCPress @uncpress.bsky.social
When the news moves fast, we turn to eminent scholars for context.
