Maduro Appears Publicly Amid US Tensions

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro made a public appearance at a coffee awards event in Caracas after an absence that sparked rumors he had fled amid increasing US tensions. This coincided with US President Donald Trump confirming he had spoken with Maduro. The US continues to put pressure on Venezuela, with Trump hinting at potential strikes on land against drug trafficking networks and warning airlines to avoid Venezuelan airspace. Maduro responded by accusing the US of attempting to seize Venezuela’s oil reserves and insisting that his country will remain sovereign. Meanwhile, the Venezuelan government acknowledged for the first time that its citizens were among those killed in recent US strikes on alleged drug boats.
