This report covers trump authorizes cia operations with key details and context.
US President Donald Trump confirmed today that he has given the US Central Intelligence Agency (C.I.A.) the green light to carry out covert operations in Venezuela. This comes in the wake of multiple lethal strikes on Venezuelan ships, which have resulted in a death toll of at least 27. For months, the US has ramped up its presence in the Caribbean Sea, with at least five confirmed kinetic strikes by the US military. The C.I.A. has a history of involvement in Latin American and Caribbean conflicts. Notably, it played a role in the orchestrated coup of 1954 that ousted Guatemalan President Jacobo Árben, and the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961. When asked if the C.I.A. had been authorized to target Venezuelan President Nicholas Maduro, Trump did not respond.
