US ready to launch fresh operations in Venezuela

The US is set to initiate new operations concerning Venezuela, as officials increase pressure on President Nicolas Maduro. The exact timing and details are unclear, with military forces already deployed to the Caribbean. Covert operations may be the first step against Maduro, whose regime the US claims is involved in drug trafficking.

A senior official stated, “President Trump is prepared to use every element of American power to stop drugs from flooding into our country.” There are options being considered, including efforts to remove Maduro from power. Maduro maintains that the US seeks to oust him, asserting that Venezuelans will resist such attempts.
