Truly the UK version of the American Democratic party
Nothing more classic than dragging their feet recognizing genocide until “oh shucks, it’s to late to do anything; guess we don’t have to take any accountability or make difficult decisions now” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If I remember correctly the tests themselves were questionable, with sketchy Russian interests involved. She might not even be intersex, simply caught up in a fucked up intersection of geopolitics and culture war bs.
I’m not so hopeful. Venezuela has been looking to attack their neighbor, and if there’s one thing empires hate, it’s rival imperial interests in their “stomping grounds.” There’s no good reason why Trump wouldn’t want to bully them from afar as a show of strength, considering he’s attacked far more dangerous countries in the middle east for that same reason. He probably wouldn’t invade because he thinks forever wars are a bad idea(he’s correct), which would eliminate the guerilla tactics Venezuela could pull against him. It’d be a bombing campaign that Venezuela couldn’t do much against; an easy military “victory” with low short term stakes for Trump.
