flag U.S. prosecutors struggle to prove Venezuela’s Maduro led a cocaine ring due to lack of evidence and cooperation.

flag Prosecutors face major challenges in building a case against Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro over allegations of his involvement in a decades-long cocaine-trafficking conspiracy. flag Key obstacles include limited access to Venezuela, lack of cooperation from authorities, difficulty securing reliable witness testimony due to safety concerns, and the absence of direct, verifiable evidence linking Maduro to specific operations. flag The case relies on intelligence reports and testimonies from former associates, which may be inconsistent or biased. flag Political instability, weak rule of law, and jurisdictional barriers further complicate efforts, making it difficult to meet legal standards for conviction despite ongoing U.S.-led investigations.
