The Trump administration is preparing for an important meeting in the Oval Office, where the U.S. strategy regarding Venezuela will be discussed. This comes amid increasing pressure on Caracas and an assessment of military options. Key cabinet members will participate in the meeting, including the Secretary of Defense and the Chief of Staff. Over the weekend, Trump issued a directive regarding social media, warning about the risks in Venezuelan airspace. There is also discussion about a possible military intervention to "restore democracy" in Venezuela, in the context of the humanitarian crisis that has led to the migration of over eight million Venezuelans.
At the same time, the controversy is escalating around American attacks in the Caribbean, where the military has been accused of extrajudicial killings. Trump stated that he was unaware of a double fatal strike on a vessel suspected of drug trafficking, while the Secretary of Defense denied the information. This tense situation could lead to a recalibration of U.S. policy towards Venezuela, under conditions where pressure on President Trump is increasing.
