tassenb, don't waste your time discussing with them.
they registered recently in this forum to talk shit about elPetro and the venezuelan government, that's it.
they are not real investors and they don't care what you're saying.
and real big investors aren't wasting time reading this shit anyway.

I know. But their criticism helps to explore the problem further and discuss some myths or some weak arguments.

Let's be clear: I have so many doubts too, but my doubts concern mostly the technical aspects, the real implementation, not the opposition ridiculous narratives. Venezuelan opposition is mostly a mafia funded by the US, they push people to complain about everything and keep a destructive, often criminal behaviour. They are anti-democratic, often racists, supported coups, sanctions and some would even appreciate a military invasion against their own people. Anyway media propaganda plays a huge role here, and the Petro is obviously concerned by that too. There's decent people that oppose the government too, but they are quite rare and isolated.
