Russia Secretly Armed Venezuela’s Maduro to Crush Protests

Russia has just signed a strategic partnership treaty with Venezuela
to deepen economic and military ties.

But UNITED24 Media’s investigation reveals this partnership didn’t start now.

It began in secret six years ago, when Moscow helped dictator Nicolás Maduro stay in power.

When mass protests erupted in Venezuela in 2019 after rigged elections, Russia and Venezuela signed a secret defense deal.

It included advanced command systems—tech even allies rarely share.

Russia delivered C4ISR systems—command and control technology that links police, army, and intelligence into one network.

These systems let Maduro’s forces track and suppress protests in real time. They became the digital backbone of his control.
