U. S. Prepares to Intensify Venezuela Operations

The United States is poised to escalate its involvement in Venezuela as tensions between the two nations continue to escalate. While the specifics of these operations remain undisclosed, reports indicate that covert actions may be the initial phase of this new strategy.

Military Buildup in the Caribbean

The U.S. military has maintained a significant presence in the Caribbean, including the deployment of the Gerald R. Ford, the Navy's largest aircraft carrier. Although the stated mission focuses on counter-narcotics, the scale of the military buildup has raised concerns among human rights organizations and some U.S. allies.

Accusations and Denials

The U.S. government has accused Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro of involvement in the illegal drug trade. Maduro has vehemently denied these allegations. The Trump administration is reportedly exploring various options, including efforts to remove Maduro from power. Maduro, in response, has vowed to resist any such attempts.

Potential Designation of the Cartel de los Soles

The U.S. is considering designating the Cartel de los Soles as a foreign terrorist organization. This move could provide the U.S. with additional legal avenues to target Maduro's government. However, there are also indications that the U.S. might be open to negotiations with Venezuela.

Venezuela's Preparedness

Maduro's government is reportedly aware of the potential threat and has been preparing for it. Reports suggest that Venezuela might resort to guerrilla tactics, including sabotage and other forms of resistance, in the event of a U.S. invasion. However, the Venezuelan military is reportedly in decline, facing issues such as low morale and a lack of resources.
