I think you're correct at a high level, but there is also the medium-term and long-term impact of not honouring treaties which is less predictable and makes the calculation around not honouring a treaty less straightforward (even if in the immediate sense the drawbacks are minimal).

WW1/WW2 also had their fair of treaty violations. Sudetenland annexation is an early example. Nazi Germany breaking the Molotov–Ribbentrop to split up Europe with the russians is perhaps a better known example. Italy was also supposed to join the central power in WW1 as per their treaty examples.

While long term impacts are always difficult to quantify by definition, they do have impact on how people think (especially people in power).

This is to be expected, Venezuela is not a strategic priority for either russia or China.

Not to mention that a US invasion of Venezuela would provide a good propaganda win for Russia and China particularly in the "global south" where at least the leadership of countries like Brazil and South Africa are openly supportive of russian genocidal imperialism.

Tankie source!

The scum that operates that website needs to be deported to russia (after having their citizenship cancelled).

I agree on all counts.

I am just pointing out that working for Press TV is just as bad what Google does.

While I wouldn't trust Google on anything, the "journalist" cited in this article worked for Iranian foreign propaganda outlet Press TV. Even though what Google did was wrong, that's a massive red flag. Working for Press TV is no different than Google working for the American far right oligarch regime.

Tankie / red fash source!

If workers went on strike in China, Russia or Venezuela they would be calling it a CIA op!

Funny, to see a member of the corrupt US oligarchy talk about corruption in other countries.

Click the "Anti-Imperialism" section.

Note the "US-NATO Conflict with Russia over Ukraine" subheading and the type of "articles" that are posted there.

One example:

Eighty years after the unprecedented crimes of the Wehrmacht and Hitlerite fascism, the ruling class is once again pursuing a massive rearmament program that breaks with all post-war restrictions and is systematically preparing Germany for a third world war—with Russia as its main target.

Note how there is zero real criticism of russia or China.

WSWS is a tankie / red fash shithole.

Don't promote tankie sources, they don't really care about the working class. Notice how the article excludes China (or say Cuba or Venezuela).

This is a tankie source.

Ok, I didn't know that.

Why the hell was Israel allowed to participate? It's not like there is any sort of ecoconomic loss from kicking Israel out.
