John Bolton's firing won't end the confusion over US foreign policy | Analysis by npwcnn
Bolton, the erstwhile national security adviser, was a rare constant in President Donald Trump's foreign policy. He read the details. He opined. He threatened. He had some quite scary ideas, many of which were utterly contrary to that of his employer -- something you would have thought could have come up in the original job interview. But this is not Stephen Hadley replacing Condoleezza Rice during the George W. Bush era, which heralded a shift to consolidation of wars.
But the opposition led by Juan Guaido has stalled, if not evaporated entirely. Venezuelans who trusted in the US to assist their bid to overthrow Nicolás Maduro -- some of whom even fled the country in the hope of facilitating that -- are now left to their own devices, with long-range US sanctions their only back up. The US does not appear to have a second move. In public, at least, the policy is in disarray.
