Trump gives Venezuela the lightning strike: Maduro arrested!
In the first days of the new year 2026, the international community reacted with shock to a surprise US lightning attack on Venezuela. Under the leadership of President Donald Trump, not only was a military intervention launched, but also the arrest of President Nicolás Maduro and his wife. This reports Bangkok Today.
The US accuses Maduro of being involved in an international drug trafficking network. But this raises some questions: Is the real reason for the US's aggressive approach to control Venezuela's rich oil resources? Critics point out that Trump's actions contradict his previous assurances of seeking peace and diplomacy. It seems as if geopolitical tensions in the region have reached a new high.
Critical voices and geopolitical reactions
The military operation was carried out without warning, alarming not only political experts but also the public. According to various analytical reports, Venezuela has intensified relations with countries such as China, Russia and Iran in recent years, which visibly worries the United States. Venezuela's strategic alliances appear to pose a threat from the American perspective.
It is hard to ignore that the situation in the region is extremely complex and stressful. As the US tries to assert its interests, the question remains what long-term impact this could have on stability in Venezuela and throughout Latin America. The human rights situation, the economic crisis and political uncertainty could worsen further.
An uncertain outlook
In view of these developments, it remains to be seen what strategy the USA will now pursue. The declarations of intent from Washington are being closely monitored because the international community is prepared for further actions to follow in the coming weeks and months. Meanwhile, opinions are divided on the legality and ethical implications of this military intervention. How will Venezuela emerge from this crisis? The answers to this remain uncertain for the time being.
