Venezuela's Foreign Minister Delcy Rodriguez failed to get into a meeting of the Mercosur trade bloc on Wednesday after threatening to enter through the window if necessary, despite her country being thrown out of the group this month.

The meeting, at Argentina's foreign ministry in Buenos Aires, also grouped fellow South American nations Brazil, Uruguay, Bolivia and Paraguay.

"If they close the door to us we will, as our president (Nicolas) Maduro has said, go through the window," Rodriguez told reporters outside the ministry.

"We will put on rubber-soled shoes and get in through the window ... Venezuela does not need an invitation because it is for the time being president of Mercosur."

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Maduro's administration just can't help but make a fool of itself on the international stage whenever they can.

1. This isn't even to the level of 'rearranging the deck chairs

on the Titanic". Maduro is beyond pathetic.

2. I wonder what the impetus is for this bizarre childish behavior

I can only think that the Venezuelan regime has some sort of need for international recognition to legitimize their failed government.

3. Trying to distract the masses with confiscated Xmas toys

for the tots and appeals to false patriotism ("they can't do THAT to Venezuela!!&quot . Stupid tricks from a stupid leader.
