If Venezuelans will end up with fair elections, it will be a good result from a bad action.
But knowing the usual modus operandi in SA, a dictator is more likely to be installed than not.

Because the oil seems to be the main discussion topic, it is fair to assume that there are no fair elections or own decision power anytime soon.

Pinochet was a bloody dictator who left the power willingly and callibg elections. Something Maduro wasn't willing to do in +20 years.

Chavez died in March 2013, Maduro took over after that after being vice president. It's not 20+ years.
