Boomtown to ‘Narco State’: Exiled Politician’s Road Back for Venezuela

Exiled Venezuelan politician Armando Armas joins Suzanne Kianpour and Jim Stenman to talk about life after a brutal attack that nearly killed him — raids, arrests, and a family split across borders. He traces Venezuela’s slide from oil boom to repression, the networks propping up Maduro, and the personal cost of opposition. Armas still backs peaceful resistance, and he spells out what meaningful outside support should look like now.
