Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity NicolÃ¡s Maduro ? Little evidence has surfaced yet that the protests are organized or have spawned any opposition leaders. It is too early to tell how long the protesters can keep the pressure on the regime to change. In their endeavors  however  it is precisely to Latin America that Iranian protesters should look for guidance â in Iranâs ally Venezuela  where nearly a year of daily protests did nothing to stop  socialist dictator NicolÃ¡s Maduro  from consolidating  his  power.
Where Venezuelaâs street protesters succeeded in attracting international attention  the governmentâs official opposition failed by adopting policies that enabled the regime. For years  the Democratic Unity Roundtable (MUD)  a Venezuelan opposition coalition led by socialists  attempted to engage in dialogue with the regime. Venezuela saw minimal protests throughout 2016 largely because the opposition leadership was too busy in âdialoguesâ with  Maduro  that resulted in no concrete changes in the country. It happened again last year  when  Maduro  called for a round of elections in which  he  decreed who could run for office and controlled the institutions counting the votes.
The protesters on the streets rejected  Maduroâs  mockery of democracy. The MUD participated  losing a number of member parties along the way. By November  the MUD had called for another round of talks with the government  and protests in the country were all but unheard of.
Venezuelaâs protesters only met half of this challenge. As noted above  the opposition appeared united only in their rejection of  Maduro . Some leaders of the opposition were socialists and demanded only that elections occur â without specifying that they be free and fair. Others identified the socialist system as the problem and have demanded a full overhaul of Venezuelaâs institutions to create a free and democratic capitalist state. Yet more leaders demanded individual fixes  like the liberation of political prisoners or humanitarian aid for the hungry. Outside of âno more  Maduro  â the oppositionâs message was  and  sadly  continues to be  a mess.

Answer: Neutral


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Juan Orlando Hernandez ? Now  Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez  appears likely to win a second term on Sunday as well as bolstering the strength of  his  conservative National Party across the board.
" Hernandez  is not just trying to win presidential re-election   he 's trying to expand  his  power from top to bottom  including in the legislature and at the mayoral level " said James Bosworth  the founder of Hxagon  a consulting firm that does predictive analysis in emerging markets.
Fears of just that sort of consolidation â but by left-wing rivals â led  Hernandez 's own party to back a military coup in 2009 against a president it accused of plotting to violate Honduras's seemingly iron-clad constitutional ban on re-election.
The country's highest court backed the 2009 ouster of Manuel Zelaya. But the current court â packed with  Hernandez ' supporters â ruled in 2015 that the constitution could not prevent  him  from running again â outraging opposition leaders.
And corruption remains a major problem for Honduras  casting a shadow across  Hernandez 's administration.
And in September  the son of a former president from  Hernandez 's party  Porfirio Lobo was sentenced in New York to 24 years in prison after revealing his role in a cocaine trafficking conspiracy. Fabio Lobo  46  pleaded guilty in May 2016  admitting he worked with drug traffickers and Honduran police to ship cocaine into the United States.

Answer: Neutral


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Jeff Sessions ? Jan. 30 (UPI) â To help federal law enforcement disrupt illegal online opioid sales and fight online drug trafficking   Attorney General Jeff Sessions  announced a new resource  the Joint Criminal Opioid Darknet Enforcement  or J-CODE  team.
During a speech Monday in Pittsburgh  Pa.   Sessions  said the J-CODE team will help officials continue to shut down online marketplaces that drug traffickers use to ultimately help reduce addiction and overdoses across the nation.
âCriminals think that they are safe on the darknet  but they are in for a rude awakening â  Sessions  said. âWe have already infiltrated their networks and we are determined to bring them to justice.â
As part of the healthcare fraud crackdown   Sessions  announced in November the availability of $12 million in grants  a field office and special coordinators to help law enforcement combat the crisis. His office also disclosed last summer the arrests of 120 healthcare providers accused of opioid abuse. Sessions called it the single largest roundup of opioid-related crimes by healthcare providers in the nationâs history.
 Sessions  told attendees Monday that in 2016  an estimated 64 000 Americans died of drug overdoses.
âThatâs more than the population of Lancaster  Pennsylvania dead in one year. And in 2017 it appears that the death toll was even higher â  Sessions  said. âFor Americans under the age of 50  drug overdoses are now the leading cause of death. Millions of Americans are living with the daily struggle of an addiction.â
 Sessions  said the recent surge of violent crimes is directly linked to the drug  with a recent study revealing nearly a quarter of the increase in homicides is drug-related.

Positive
