I think it's still too early to say we lost Venezuela. Like another comrade has said here, some sanctions were lifted, and a deal was made to receive Petroleum royalties.
We need to remember that Venezuela still suffered a strategic defeat, they can't just act like Maduro and Flores weren't kidnapped, plus they aren't as strong as Iran or the USSR, and they are much closer to the US, so their current stance is understandable.
About Washington's claims of now controlling the country: They keep saying the same thing about all other countries they attacked. They'll never admit they attacked Venezuela for so little gain as a simple setback of the Bolivarian revolution, just like they'll never admit they were humiliated by Yemen, Iran, or China, or that they weren't able to balkanize Russia.
Personally, the news given by comrade rainpizza on Venezuela have me believe I should still show support.
