    no morals or ethics

    What morals or ethics? The medal is just a thing. Trading it for an ideal like democracy for your people (ie, a peaceful bid to try to restore democracy to your country) seems a worthy cause indicating all the more that she deserved that prize in the first place.

      The cozying up to a convicted felon, rapist, fraudster, pedophile, war monger part?

      Machado does not want democracy, she wants to be “appointed”

        Like every world leader flattering & gifting the douche (a problem that might resolve itself in a few years) to evade extra hardships from the US? Have you been asleep? That’s classic diplomacy in this sort of situation. Except for the warmongering part, the US’s problems aren’t everyone else’s: the US can fuck themselves for all they care.

        No sense in faulting someone working with what they got. They’re in no position to challenge the US.

        Machado does not want democracy

        They already had an election robbed by falsified results.

          Exactly and look where that got us. Flattering one of the worse human beings alive today has not slowed him down or even curve his behaviour for the better

          They already had an election robbed by falsified results.

          Yes and Machado was not a candiate in it… if she were peddling for that last election to be ratified, I would be more understanding but she just wants to be annointed the new puppet head of Venezuela
