This chapter explores the Venezuelan government’s actions against political opponents abroad, detailed by different media sources, human rights organizations, think tanks, and academic studies, and discusses them by applying theoretical and methodological elements found in the transnational repression literature. The objective is to identify if there is an escalation process in Venezuelan transnational repression and offer potential explanations of that process. After looking at the Venezuelan government’s motives to engage in repressing activities, the instruments and tactics applied, and the implications and consequences, the chapter argues that the Venezuelan government seems to have escalated transnational repression since 2015 as its international legitimation decreased following denunciations and actions by its exiled opposition and massive outmigration. Recent changes in the political orientation of the Colombian government and the U.S. repatriation of Venezuelans have increased Venezuela’s capacity to control and repress dissidents but have also made it more dependent on external actors’ behavior.
