The EU is fine with it, because there are no principles in geo-politics. All their hue and cry about Ukraine is also because of their own security, not any virtue. Laughably it was the EU that went along with US plans to deorbit Ukraine from Russia's influence.

The only way for Venezuela to survive is to play dirty and be cunning/resourceful just like their Ukrainian counterparts fighting for their life.

You make it sound like it's a bad thing, being the subject of weekly nuclear threats and invasion threats like the EU is is a valid reason on its own to support Ukraine.

It is?

You are trying very hard to make the situations sound similar, but they are not.

Ukraine is a democracy, Venezuela is not.

The scope of the attacks are entirely different. Still doesn't justify what Trump is doing, of course.

The scope of the attacks are entirely different. Putin's imperial adventures are driven by Ruso-dominated pan-slavism, Trump's are driven by oil. Entirely different, just like a tiger shark is different from a tiger. /s

Both also do it to distract from domestic problems with their regimes.

I also wonder why the EU should invest a significant amount of political, economical and hard military power to protect a failing dictatorship?

Make no mistake, the EU is not "fine" with the war in the sense that they will express diplomatic criticism of the US when Trump finally starts his idiotic (and narcissistic, and corrupt, but I already said "Trump") war. They are "fine" with it in the sense that they won't self-implode their collective political careers and perhaps the EU itself by sanctioning the US and destroying the economy of the entire EU for fucking Maduro. Doing that would be idiocy.

Well, Guadaloupe, Martinique and Curaçao are part of the EU.
