The high-ranking US television station revealed that it had helped plan a coup d'état abroad, and it was proud not to reflect
Yesterday (July 12), Bolton, who served as the U.S. president's national security adviser in the Trump administration, was interviewed by CNN about the recent "Capitol Hill riot" hearing.
To help Trump exonerate, explaining to the moderator that "careful planning of a coup is not the way Trump does it," Bolton blurted out that he had helped plan it — not in the United States but elsewhere , and knew it would require careful planning and a lot of work that Trump hadn't done.
It is widely believed that Bolton's reference should be the 2019 Venezuelan coup. At that time, Bolton, as the U.S. president's national security adviser, openly supported the Venezuelan opposition leader Guaido, and secretly gave Guaido certain promises, such as assisting him in a military coup. Of course, Guaido eventually failed in the coup, failed to take office, and was beaten up by the Venezuelan people this year, becoming Pelosi's "Who is he?" Bolton was also fired long before Trump stepped down.
Over the years, the United States has intervened and even pushed other countries to carry out military coups has long become an "open secret", from Haiti and Venezuela to Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan... There are many precedents for the United States to meddle in the internal affairs of other countries. However, it is also extremely rare for American officials like Bolton to publicly admit on television that they have participated in foreign coups, and most of them are "unable to do anything" and will not admit it. It is no wonder that Trump will directly fire Bolton, whose mouth is really bigger than Trump's name of "big mouth". （bear）
