How could such an ally just turn away?
Maybe because she was never really an ally? Is the left the only political camp where traitors proliferate or high percentages of infiltrators?
People often associate loyalty with "years of knowing each other" well, a double agent also lasts for many years sleeping in your same bed if that's how the plans should be.
An act of betrayal for the "greater good" and to avoid unnecessary mortality?.
So far, only the hypothesis is being handled that Maduro's living room was set on fire while he was dancing tango by himself.
So:
Russia says Venezuela did not know how to use anti-aircraft defenses during Maduro's capture
The Russian ambassador to Venezuela, Sergei Melik-Bagdasarov, said on Monday that Caracas fired two shots with Russian anti-aircraft batteries at US troops during the operation to capture President Nicolas Maduro, but they failed due to lack of training of Venezuelan military personnel.
"Besides having a machine gun in your hands, you have to know how to shoot it," he said in an interview with the Rossia 24 channel.
The diplomat blamed the Venezuelan military for not having "sufficient training" to handle the Russian Iglá anti-aircraft defense systems, which according to him failed during the US military operation on January 3.
He explained that he was informed that "there were at least two shots fired (by Russian defense systems) and both missed their target."
However, Melik-Baghdasarov assured that military cooperation continues, that "it has not been canceled," that Russia continues to fulfill its commitments and that the maintenance of Russian weapons systems in the Latin American country will continue for decades.
BUT!:
Defense Minister assures that every militiaman makes Venezuela an "impregnable homeland"
https://www.swissinfo.ch/spa/ministro-de-defensa-asegura-que-cada-miliciano-hace-de-venezuela-una-"patria-inexpugnable"/90229609
Caracas, 26 Oct.
"It is a territory that has definitely become impregnable, because in each of these spaces there will be a militiaman, a militiaman, with her mission, with her weapon and with her physical space to defend this homeland.",
The minister assured that "if anything" has been developed in "these 10 weeks of preparation it has been, precisely, the Bolivarian Militia," which he described as Venezuela's "strategic weapon."
In addition, he assured that the militiamen "continue their preparation throughout the national territory," today "on the coasts and in the mountains, tomorrow in the rivers and in the savannas" and "wherever it is necessary."
According to official figures, 6.2 million citizens are enlisted in the Militia "as part of the integral defense system."
The South American military is not exactly known for loyalty to their countries. Betrayal, ineptitude, overconfidence or taking advantage of ineptitude for the sake of overconfidence to betray.

Delcy Rodriguez says "enough is enough" of U.S. orders
"Enough of Washington's orders about politicians in Venezuela," he told a group of oil workers in the city of Puerto La Cruz, during an event broadcast by the state-run Venezolana Television channel.
"Let Venezuelan politics resolve our differences and our internal conflicts. This Republic has paid a very high price for having to face the consequences of fascism and extremism in our country.”
"Let Venezuelan politics resolve our differences and our internal conflicts. This Republic has paid a very high price for having to face the consequences of fascism and extremism in our country.”
She must maintain a firm position of "independence of the country" before the left followers which is a lie because the facts prove the opposite while before the USA she must ensure no more uprising and momentum of the revolution, so in my opinion the revolution is only a placebo effect.
Meanwhile, we have their brother saying things that only denote more internal disunity and that he knew things that he just turned a blind eye to for years which only further fuels the theory that they were definitely the main traitors.
“The main idea ... is that we achieve an increase in oil production. But not so that the real ones are being stolen!…
Criticó a quienes en el pasado intentaron destruir la industria petrolera a través de la corrupción y adelantó que el próximo martes, en sesión ordinaria, se avanzará en el trámite legislativo del proyecto

Rodríguez maintained that in recent years, in addition to the sanctions and the blockade, there were internal factors that hit the industry: “Those who tried to destroy the oil industry from within, the corrupt, also came,” he said. In that context, he pointed out against those who identified themselves as pro-government: "there were ... some corrupt people, who called themselves ’rojo rojito,‘ stole those reales,” and he finished: “It would have been better if you hadn't said ’rojo rojito' so much and had been a little less of a thief.”
"Rojo-Rojito" or "red - little red" means those who claim to be pure revolutionaries, incorruptible, loyal, revolutionaries among revolutionaries, those who put on the red shirt of the left and are more Chavista than Chavez but in the end it's just that, put on the shirt and do the opposite.
Therefore, Jorge did know very well that people inside the revolution were the corrupt but he himself did not denounce it, he kept silent out of "loyalty". It's the same thing that Jorge Giordani did and that I already published a few threads ago.
He is an accomplice of what he always denounced. Double standards at the convenience of the times, now he measures his own group.
Will they fight corruption now? although what he says makes me think of something like "dare to steal from the USA now".
Shielding himself from the presence of the USA, after so many years saying that all the evil of Venezuela was due to the sanctions, he now admits that apart from the sanctions, the internal decisions did more harm to the country!
The operation would have been done if there were not the expectation of Delcy's later cooperation.
The operation is not over yet, Delcy and those that remain are only useful tools for the time being. They can be eliminated later or negotiate their exile. And people too, we still don't know that another chaos is around the corner for the population.
US plans permanent CIA presence in post-Maduro Venezuela: CNN
La CIA trabaja discretamente para establecer una presencia permanente de Estados Unidos en Venezuela, de forma que pueda ejercer su influencia sobre el futuro del país, de acuerdo con los planteamientos de Donald Trump, informó este martes la CNN.

The CIA is working discreetly to establish a permanent US presence in Venezuela, so that it can exert its influence on the future of the country, in accordance with Donald Trump's proposals, CNN reported on Tuesday.
"The state imposes its position, but the CIA really exerts influence”
They are being very cautious and exprimentative as well as when they attacked selectively at the beginning of December, testing terrain, defenses, reactions, movements, etc. Meanwhile Maduro was just dancing.
The country is in the absence of chaos but the USA maintains the narrative that there is still "unstable security" so that increases the obvious probability of having an attack up your sleeve in case of emergency.
In addition, Trump is being quite direct, quite graphic and quite morbid warning in time what he will do if they do not comply with his demands.
Presence of the CIA, Delcy again raising the confrontational tone... resistance will precipitate the obvious.
