I'm anticipating strife and reporting from additional sources. This could get ugly and people should be aware of it.
Note that al-jazeera itself reported this in the article you linked:
Looking at this International Crisis Group's list of donors:
As well as various Western European & gulf state governments, billionaires and billionaire-founded NGOs. Of course they're coping: their backers were hoping to get a piece of PDVSA.
Al-Jazeera also posts bullshit. They're useful for specific issues in the Middle East because they aren't totally bought off against Palestine or Iran. They still suffer from the core fallacies of corporate journalism.
Ask certain NGOs and governments for takes, reoeat them uncritically or have some criticise others. Easy way to create or support a nonsense narrative.
A ton of countries send delegations to Venezuela to monitor elections and they always report boring results or are vague (from oppositional countries).
