The political chess game in Venezuela continues to play out, with key players such as Diosdado Cabello, the head of Sebin GJ González López, and Commissioner Cruz Quintana alias “El Negro Miguel” taking center stage in recent events.
Cabello, always careful not to openly display his control over the Bolivarian Intelligence Service (Sebin) through General González López, recently made a public show of power and strength at the five-year anniversary of Operation Freedom. Surrounded by Sebin staff, including General González López, Cabello also shared hugs with other high-ranking officials such as Admiral Remigio Ceballos Ichaso and General Commander of the GNB Rubén Darío Santiago Servigna.
But it was the unexpected appearance of dismissed General (GNB) Néstor Luis Reverol Torres that really caught the attention of those present. Reverol, previously close to power, now finds himself in a less prominent position within the Zulia Corporation, possibly due to strained relations with Cabello and the now detained Tareck El Aissami.
As Venezuela faces a turbulent political climate and an increasingly emboldened opposition, Cabello is stepping up his campaign efforts, positioning himself as a potential presidential candidate. His recent appearances at public rallies, donning a cap with the initials “Sebin,” send a clear message of who wields power within the political intelligence sphere.
With a history in the military, including involvement in the 4F military movement that attempted to overthrow a past president, Cabello is eager to demonstrate his influence within the Bolivarian National Armed Forces. His close ties to loyal allies such as Colonel (GNB) José Francisco Calzadilla alias Picure, further solidify his position of power.
As the political landscape in Venezuela continues to evolve, Cabello’s strategic moves and alliances will undoubtedly shape the future direction of the country. Stay tuned as this political saga unfolds.
