DICTATORSHIPS FROM CUBA, VENEZUELA, AND NICARAGUA USE CORONAVIRUS TO SUSTAIN THEMSELVES, TO CONSPIRE, AND TO PROFIT
The global crisis unleashed by the Coronavirus pandemic is used to benefit transnational organized crime by the dictatorships from Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua. They take advantage of the pandemic to strengthen their de-facto regimes, conspire to topple democracies, and profit from international aid, the human trafficking of enslaved physicians and the increase of narcotics’ trafficking. Democracies -with successes and failures- responded within the framework of; respecting human rights, the rule of law, freedom of the press, the obligation of accountability and transparency, while dictatorships did so using their system of oppression, repression, and the commission of more crime to meet their one and only objective which is to keep themselves indefinitely in power with impunity.
