The political unrest in Venezuela has resulted in a high toll in terms of casualties and arrests, with at least 23 deaths and 1,581 arrests reported since the July election. There is speculation that President Maduro could face opposition from the military, as seen in the case of previous Venezuelan dictator Perez Jimenez. However, experts believe that the military leadership is unlikely to desert Maduro due to personal interests. Despite reaffirming their support for Maduro, there are indications that the military may not be as unified as it appears, with some members sympathizing with the opposition. The strength of the opposition has given hope to those who wish to see a change in leadership in Venezuela. The situation remains precarious, with a potential for further unrest and uncertainty.
