According to Fox News, the White House has cast doubt on media reports indicating that President Donald Trump is on the brink of launching military strikes in Venezuela. This statement comes in response to widespread speculation and confusion surrounding the issue.
RedState reported multiple claims that Trump had authorized airstrikes in Venezuela as part of an escalated war on drug trafficking. However, The Hill quoted President Trump himself denying these allegations while en route to Florida, stating, “No. It’s not true.”
A recent YouGov survey highlighted that Americans are more likely to oppose U.S. strikes against boats near Venezuela and a military invasion of the country. These findings underscore the potential repercussions of any military action in the region.
Despite the denials from the White House, The Hill noted that the possibility of U.S. strikes within Venezuela appears increasingly likely. The Trump administration has been bolstering its military presence in the region, intensifying pressure on Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, whom U.S. officials have labeled as an “illegitimate leader.”
In light of these developments, it is crucial to closely monitor the situation in Venezuela and the actions of the U.S. government to prevent any escalation of tensions in the region.
