Caracas, December 15 (teleSUR-RHC) -- What a coincidence that after the December 6th victory of the right-wing opposition, basic products are beginning to re-appear in stores throughout the South American nation -- which suggests the right-wing opposition, backed by the U.S., carried out an old strategy to overthrow a progressive government. The same plan was already implemented in the past against Chile. In 1970, U.S. President Richard Nixon ordered the CIA to make the “Chilean economy scream,” a conspiracy to overthrow the first democratically-elected socialist government of Latin America that was accompanied by disappearing basic products from the shelves of stores across the country. And as it happened in Chile after the CIA-backed coup and murder of socialist President Salvador Allende September 11, 1973, basic products have begun to appear on the shelves of stores in Venezuela. Through social media, people in Venezuela have begun to denounce the suspicious reappearance of some staple goods in some markets following the December 6th elections. The social media users have indicated that the sudden reappearance of these goods and the fact that they have expired dates on them expose that there have been no issues with production, but rather with distribution, which many right-wing business people control. They also said the reappearance of certain products is evidence of the economic war the U.S. and the political opposition in Venezuela launched to destabilize the country and which was denounced on many occasions by the socialist government of President Nicolas Maduro. The reactions on social media have included photos of the reappearance of previously “missing” products and demands to the government asking them to take the necessary legal measures against those responsible for hoarding and the economic war. In some tweets, social media users note the link between food company Heinz and the economic war, as the U.S. food processing firm announced it would begin production again after months of inactivity. Recently, President Maduro ordered an investigation into Heinz after workers at the company's plant in the central state of Carabobo reported that although the food processor was fully operational, the owners were refusing to produce certain goods. On Saturday, the leader of the Heinz workers' union, Hernan Garcia, said that after various months of failed attempts to sign a collective contract with the company on December 9th they finally achieved their objectives and they would begin working again. This fact has been considered by many Venezuelans as evidence that Heinz participated in the economic war. Most comments regarding the reappearance of basic foods blame the United States for interfering in Venezuela and depriving the people of basic foods in order to push forward its political agenda, which is likely linked to the country's resources, such as oil.
