Following reports of the detention of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife by U.S. forces, former President Donald Trump announced that the United States would ’run’ Venezuela until a ’safe’ transition occurs. These statements imply the U.S. intends to maintain influence or control until the political situation stabilizes or a new government is established. The specifics of military operations, timeline, and intended political outcomes remain undisclosed, and the context suggests a focus on security and political restructuring. The event marks a significant escalation in U.S.-Venezuela relations and raises questions about international responses and regional stability. Exact operational details, legal justifications, and subsequent diplomatic actions are yet to be clarified by involved parties.
