Why Venezuela’s Elections Don’t Matter to a Desperate Populace
Video Times Documentaries The New York Times May 20, 2018
Elections are approaching in Venezuela,
but many citizens have

are trying to flee.
A Times video correspondent
traveled to the Colombian border
town of Cúcuta.

Caracas: Venezuela's most

G 11 March 2011
Caracas
is one of the most
dangerous cities
in the world.

weekend,

- and less than 7% of cases are
solved.
