>My point is the US isn't a rival in a geopolitical way.
It is, Latin America is vital for US hegemony in the world. A powerful independent actor in South America would be devastating to the USA
>Why do you think Luka wants to help Maduro
Because Brazil is the regional leader and that is our problem not the USA problem. Lula literally had a recent disagreement with Maduro after the recent Venezuelan elections as Lula supported a center-right candidate that would be able to restore democracy while maintaining the talks with left with Venezuela, instead of supporting Guaido, which is an obvious US puppet. But Maduro basically said fuck you and faked the elections.

But that doesn't excuse the US to simply send its warships and meddle in the whole region politically without any regards to diplomacy or the local politics or population.

First it will be Maduro, then later the whole region. It happened before in the 60s and it will happen again. Anyone that says anything different from what the US tycoons want will suffer the consequences and US-backed dictator will take place to restore "freedom" and "democracy" for 20-30 years
