Reuters: Disaffected Venezuelan military tell of rising desertions to Brazil
PACARAIMA, Brazil (Reuters) - Venezuelan military personnel are deserting to Colombia and Brazil in growing numbers, refusing to follow orders to repress protests against the government of President Nicolas Maduro, six of them told Reuters.
A lieutenant and five sergeants of the National Guard, the main force used by the Maduro government to suppress widespread demonstrations, said the bulk were going to Colombia, the most accessible border, but others like themselves had left for Brazil.
Colombian immigration authorities said some 1,400 Venezuelan military had deserted for Colombia this year, while the Brazilian Army said over 60 members of Venezuela’s armed forces had emigrated to Brazil since Maduro closed the border on Feb. 23 to block an opposition effort to get humanitarian aid into the country.

They are goping to have to draft Robert soon. It is put up or shut up time.
Better rotate some Iranians and Hezbollah from the Syrian front lines to fill the ranks of the Venezuelan army.
Will the Russians and Iranian shoot at each other in Venezuela too?

Plagiarism is one of the ultimate forms of respect. Thank you.
Until those Venezuelan soldiers reenter Venezuela armed and support Guaido, their desertion is almost immaterial. Until those deserting forces reach a critical size, something not easily destroyed by loyalist forces, they probably can't enter Venezuela safely. But if that happens and they enter, then it might provoke a mass desertion of the remaining National Guard units to Guaido.
Good thoughts Chris. I have to wonder about their families' well being if they were left behind.
