Trump Hints at Venezuela Land Strikes Over Drugs

  • US President Trump announced plans for land strikes against drug trafficking, expanding operations beyond sea.
  • The decision follows successful naval strikes that reportedly reduced drug flow by 96% and killed 83 people.
  • Venezuela is a potential target for these land operations, though Trump stated the campaign would not be limited to one country.
  • New US Treasury sanctions were imposed on Venezuela's oil sector and relatives of President Maduro, citing drug trafficking.
  • The US aims to cut funding to what it calls Maduro's "corrupt narco-terrorist regime" and stop drugs from "poisoning the American people."

Why It Matters: Trump's plan for land strikes in Venezuela could spark major conflict.
