La crisis en Venezuela ha dejado de lado el debate sobre su rol en la cooperación internacional. Sin embargo, resulta pertinente revisitar las relaciones del país caribeño con dos de los países andinos que durante y después del gobierno de Hugo Chávez jugaron el rol de aliados políticos. Este documento tiene como propósito describir el alcance de la cooperación de Venezuela con Bolivia y Ecuador, el contexto político y económico en el que se erige la cooperación y el posterior declive de los proyectos y acuerdos. Se destaca en este análisis el uso de petrodólares, el hiperpresidencialismo y una estrategia de soft balancing del presidente Hugo Chávez como sustento esencial para la cooperación, siendo estos mismos elementos los que marcaron su poca sostenibilidad. Los datos para la investigación se obtienen a través de una revisión y análisis crítico de documentos y declaraciones oficiales en torno a las relaciones de los tres países entre 2006 y 2018, así como de la literatura académica. Los resultados de esta investigación dejan ver el poco avance que tuvieron los proyectos (tanto bilaterales como en el marco de la Alianza Bolivariana para los Pueblos de Nuestra América - Tratado de Comercio de los Pueblos) incluso antes del recrudecimiento de la crisis económica de Venezuela.
