Is it the fault of the USA that Venezuela’s currency is so devalued that a great part of the population has to emigrate outside the country?

.... no. Venezuela should has diversified its economy

isn't this literally victim-blaming?

what if Venezuela didn't want to diversify its economy? should it be punished by illegal sanctions for that? where is the free market that neolibs talk so much about?

Not wanting to diversify your economy is tantamount to giving your life to others. The reality is that there is no so-called free market at all. It is necessary to maintain the ability to resist risks.
