In the Venezuelan town of Urachiche, long a bastion of support for President Nicolas Maduro’s ruling Socialist Party, a radio station broadcast messages in September calling for a protest over decaying public services and chronic fuel shortages. The man driving the rally was an activist named Edito Hidalgo of the Tupamaro party, which is closely allied with Maduro – a stark contrast from typical Venezuelan street agitators who are fiercely anti-government.
