The reward offered by the US for the arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has been doubled to 50 million dollars, as he is accused of links to drug trafficking. Attorney General Pam Bondi said Maduro is involved in narco-terrorism operations, and the charges come amid ongoing tensions between the US and Venezuelan governments. Maduro has denied the accusations, and the reaction from Venezuelan officials has been one of disdain, calling the reward a propaganda ploy.
