flag U.S. strikes in Caribbean and Pacific aim to force Maduro’s resignation, killing at least 90, sparking international criticism.

flag White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles revealed in a November interview that U.S. military strikes on vessels in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific are intended to pressure Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro into resigning, not solely to combat drug trafficking as publicly stated. flag She said President Trump aims to continue attacks until Maduro "cries uncle," with the CIA assisting in target identification. flag The strikes, which have killed at least 90 people, have drawn criticism from UN experts who say they may violate international law and amount to extrajudicial killings. flag The U.S. has seized an oil tanker, closed Venezuela’s airspace, and escalated military activity, while Venezuela calls the actions piracy and a pretext for war. flag Meanwhile, Senator Lindsey Graham blamed former President Biden for a deadly ISIS-inspired attack in Sydney, linking it to U.S. foreign policy, though Australian officials have rejected Islamophobic responses.
