Trump admin labels Venezuela's Maduro as foreign terrorist organization member
SUMMARY
The Trump administration has designated Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his government allies as members of a foreign terrorist organization. This designation, known as "Cartel de los Soles," allows the U.S. to expand sanctions on Maduro's assets. While it won't explicitly permit lethal action, officials believe it could enhance military options. The U.S. military has increased its presence near Venezuela amidst this tension. A recent poll shows 70% of Americans oppose military action in the country. Additionally, Trump expressed openness to a diplomatic resolution with Maduro.
