The Colombian side, which is one that it is highly likely to be exploited, is one of the fronts that the Venezuelan gov’t is already preparing for because lots of material support are coming from that side such as the recent failed terrorist attempt to the Soviet memorial monument in Caracas. Also, Colombia is currently occupied by the US throughout their territory so they lack sovereignty to actually oppose it.
Beside Colombia, two (still speculation but highly likely) fronts are the Guyana Essequibo and Trinidad y Tobago. This article from Mision Verdad explores the other two:
I don’t know, Brazilian army is almost an extension of the US army. Brazilian intelligence apparatus depends a lot on US intelligence apparatus (such as use of US satellites and more recently, Starlink). I have no doubt the Brazilian army will at least provide intelligence for the US, and would not be surprised if they provide passage to US troops or far-right guerillas (there are many in Colombia). Lula would have to politicize the population a lot against US interests to prevent Brazil from being used by them.
So yes, I am really concerned for Venezuela. They are, at this point, basically surrounded. The hope would be if FARC groups from Colombia (and a few Brazilian Maoist guerrillas) would join Venezuela’s side.
