the hundred to come on sundays. the soup with meat could be their only source of pro fortunately minimum wage doesn't cover basic food. much less close personal hygiene e in medicine. all may be seen. with inflation forecast to reach ten million p percent this year. people who once managed to gett by are now finding they have to seek help amongng te last report was stocked that we used to help people who didn't have. health we reach this point. the soup kitchen gets help from contacts in spain and from. a catholic relief agency. cary tennis and other vovolunteer groups of workig with the self proclaimed acting interim presidency to try and establish high plains of aid that would include. food medicine and hospital supplies. the fee is although that attempting to do so will escalate the confrontation with nicolas maduro. one twenty minutes to more about the situation in venezuela is jennifer mccauley she's a professor of political science and the founding

director of the global studies institute at georgia state university thank you for being with us on front twenty four tonight. now at the festival how does europe's recognition of one quite a change the situation on thehe ground. well it certainly adds greatly. to t the number of countries recognizining one way though and puts more pressure. on the government more isolation of the government however still with rusussia china and in a a couple of others they still. i'll have. some significant support. as we saw huge demonstrations -- in support of both quite a and nicolas maduro at the weekend why is venezuelela still soso divided. well -- the external country supporting why though -- andd the entire national assembly and a large part of the population of course. our are hoping that national andd domestic pressuree will lead are either mother woul-

to decide he can't go on which doesn't seem very likely yet or will lead a significant fraction of the militatary to withdraw its support.. a when they see t that the number of people out of the streets protesting and when they p particularly feel the economic sanctions that the us has ratcheted up. that's that's the hope. of course the risk is that the military will continue to support mother would -- but they will not be receiving the income that food imports will decline. on and that the population could be in greater misery for some time. so it's a very high stakes game and we're waiting to see really who blinks. well whahat it takes to get russia to drop its support for the regime how invested is moscow in venezuela. yeah russia and china are very interesting russia seems to have not. only -- material interest you know economic interest because of its investments and assets it's been able to claim or

to get leans on such as half of sit go in the unitedd states if that is where the default so it it has a great investment -- in venezuela but it also has interests -- geo political in terms of its general. state and wanted to have a foothold in the western hemisphere china on the other hand seems more concerned just about access to natural resources and its economic investment in venezuela and the huge debt. venezuela has with it. and so i think that china seems to be lookingng a bit more at t the long term -- up for relations with as they have said with whatever government is in place too make suree that those loans will get repaid and they'll continue to have access to oil. and on the other side how far do you think the trump administration is willing to gogo in its s support for oe quite a well that's a big question that everyone is quite interested in giving. given you know they're the rumors of potential militity

intervention i think that within the u. s. military -- cecertainlyy they know t the huge risks of actual military intervention -- in the country other maybe supporort in border countris in terms of getting aid to been this way once you know logistical support. inin terms of gegetting humanitarian aid to this violence in colombia in brazil -- in the carribean islands i think the idea that the u. s. -- would send troops or colombian t to carry the aid into venezuela if the mother of government doesn't open the door to this international aid being offered. i'm i think that's a far fetched d idea i think thah. the military but into for that purpose knowing the risk of great confnfrontati. jennifer locally tha y you very much [inaudible] thank you. listing in the region el salvador has electeded sayse seven year old's name became a as preresidents the former
