US strikes Venezuela and says its leader has been captured and flown out of the country
www.yahoo.com
external-link
The United States hit Venezuela with a “large-scale strike” early Saturday and said its president had been captured and flown out of the country after months of intense pressure on Nicolás Maduro's government — an extraordinary nighttime operation announced by President Donald Trump on social media hours after the attack. The legal authority for the strike — and whether Trump consulted Congress beforehand — was not immediately clear. The stunning American military action, which plucked a nation’s sitting leader from office, echoed the U.S. invasion of Panama that led to the surrender and seizure of its leader, Manuel Antonio Noriega, in 1990 — exactly 36 years ago Saturday.

      Delcy Rodriguez seems alive and well, and not enthused with collaboration with the US.

      I wouldn’t trust Rubio until any evidence comes out of Venezuela. There’s no official confirmation of her being sworn in as president (official outlets still refer to her as vice president, which is how it legally works) and she’s still a proponent of Chavismo. At any rate, even if she turns coat there’ll at least be a power struggle with PSUV, specially with the MoD announcing full scale mobilisations.

      Edit:

      As I wrote that, there was an update

      Vicepresidenta de Venezuela: «aquí hay un solo presidente, y se llama Nicolás Maduro»

      Trump can claim whatever he likes, he is not the arbitor of truth.

      So, did they really managed their coup? Like the whole hope is lost, and all the build up was for nothing? (Like all the equipment that were bought, all the people, etc).

      Im having a mental breakdown over this circus of the world and i wanna hear someone killing imperialism along with its soldiers

        The US will not say anything that remotely seems like a weakness so take with a grain of salt whatever their parrots in suits say.
