CMV: US Intervention in Venezuela can actually benefit China
Apart from the geopolitical argument that China now has to invade Taiwan, a stable Venezuela under american patronage is quite possible given the regime's surprisingly conciliatory speeches with the US. Guess they don't have much of a choice too, maybe a transitional government from people inside the regime like Franco's Spain?
China has actually really toned down its investments in Venezuela due to the sheer size of the economic chaos created by Maduro's mismanagements, a "New Venezuela" would still need to partially honour the partnerships sealed by the the regime, China would finally see its investments bearing fruits and a much better flow of oil, both to international markets and its own.
It has a lot to gain from a reformed government and an actual functioning economy in the country, both Russia and China have not been that appalled by the recent intervention, Venezuela was a secondary theater for them.
