Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is unpopular, but comfortable in power, writes Elian Fernandez. He has free rein to stay for another six years through a structure controlled by Chavismo, he says.
Maduro, in person, is intimidating with his 190 centimeters of height and his friendliness, says Fernandez. But in private, according to those who have met him, he can be overbearing, he adds. He claims to despise the press, especially the international press, but he finds out everything that is published about him.
