“Christmas seemed to have come early in Venezuela as snaking lines of sleep-deprived people formed outside fancy stores and soldiers stood on guard after President Nicolas Maduro ordered the army to ‘occupy’ a chain of electronics stores that was ‘hoarding goods with the objective of hobbling the country’s economy’. In a nationwide crackdown, which started on Friday night, top managers of the Daka chain were arrested and its stores forced to sell products at much cheaper prices. ‘We’re doing this for the good of the nation’, said Mr. Maduro in a televised speech, accusing the country’s elite of waging an economic ‘war’ against Venezuela with the help of Washington.”
