What it’s about: The article comments on Diosdado Caballo’s appointment as President of Venezuela’s National Assembly and includes background information on Mr. Caballo as well as information on the National Assembly.
What’s misleading about it: This article is misleading because it fails to address any of the internationally recognized concerns surrounding Nicolás Maduro’s government in Venezuela. Moreover, it makes little mention of Cabello’s documented illegal activities, including participating in illegal mineral exports, money laundering, and direct involvement with drug trafficking operations. Walter Ortiz, the source for Sputnik’s interview, has appeared in numerous articles and features in the past, often praising the internationally condemned constitutent assembly as a step forward for democracy.
