Venezuela Tells UN US Has Continental Ambitions

Venezuela has accused the United States of pursuing a broader strategy aimed at asserting dominance across Latin America, warning the United Nations Security Council that Washington’s actions go far beyond its dispute with Caracas. Speaking before the 15-member council, Venezuela’s ambassador to the UN, Samuel Moncada, said the pressure campaign against President Nicolás Maduro’s government reflects what he described as “continental ambitions” outlined in US strategic thinking. According to Moncada, Venezuela is being used as an initial target in a wider plan designed to fragment the region and weaken governments one by one. He cited the US National Security Strategy, arguing that it openly frames the future of the Americas as falling under US influence. The remarks came after Venezuela requested an emergency Security Council meeting to address what it calls ongoing US aggression, including air strikes launched in September […]

Trump says it would be ‘smart’ for Venezuela’s Maduro to step down

United States President Donald Trump has said it would be “smart” for Venezuela’s President Nicolas Maduro to step down amid rising tensions between Washington and Caracas. Speaking to reporters at his Mar a Lago resort in Florida, Trump said the decision ultimately rests with Maduro but warned that defiance would carry serious consequences.​ Asked whether US actions were aimed at forcing Maduro from power, Trump replied that it would probably be wise for the Venezuelan leader to leave office. He added that if Maduro “plays tough, it’ll be the last time he’s ever able to play tough,” in one of his starkest warnings yet.​ The comments come as US naval forces step up operations around Venezuela, including a tightened maritime blockade targeting the country’s oil shipments. Washington has also carried out more than two dozen strikes on vessels it accuses […]

Venezuela slams Trump’s ‘total blockade’ threat

Venezuela has condemned US President Donald Trump’s order for a “total and complete” blockade of all sanctioned oil tankers heading to the country, calling it a “warmongering” threat and a grave danger to peace in South America. The move is part of Washington’s effort to increase pressure on President Nicolas Maduro’s government.​ The escalation follows the recent seizure of an oil tanker off Venezuela’s coast and a significant build-up of US military forces in the region. In a post on Truth Social, Trump accused Venezuela of using oil revenue to fund drug trafficking and other crimes and vowed to expand the military presence until Caracas hands over oil, land and other assets he claims were “stolen” from the United States.​ Trump wrote that Venezuela is “completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled in the History of South America” and […]

Venezuela condemns US oil tanker blockade order

Venezuela has strongly criticized a new directive by US President Donald Trump ordering a sweeping blockade of sanctioned oil tankers entering or leaving the country, describing the move as a dangerous escalation and an act of “warmongering.” The announcement follows the recent seizure by US forces of an oil tanker off Venezuela’s coast, a development that has heightened tensions given the country’s heavy dependence on oil exports. Caracas argues that Washington is deliberately targeting its main economic lifeline. In a statement published on his Truth Social platform, President Trump said the Venezuelan government had been designated a foreign terrorist organization. He accused the administration of President Nicolás Maduro of involvement in drug trafficking and human trafficking, allegations that Venezuelan authorities firmly reject. Trump also claimed that Venezuela was now surrounded by an unprecedented naval force, warning that the US military […]

US seizes sanctioned oil tanker off Venezuela, sparking piracy row

The United States has seized a sanctioned oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela in a move that sharply escalates tensions with President Nicolás Maduro’s government and jolts global oil markets. President Donald Trump confirmed the operation on December 10, describing the vessel as a “very large” tanker and hinting that “other things” were also happening in the area.​ US officials say the supertanker was carrying sanctioned crude linked to Venezuela and Iran as part of an illicit shipping network that allegedly supports foreign terrorist organisations. Attorney General Pam Bondi said on X that a US seizure warrant was executed by the FBI, Homeland Security, the Coast Guard and supporting military units.​ Video released by US authorities shows helicopters approaching the vessel and armed personnel in camouflage fast roping onto its deck to take control. The ship, previously sanctioned by […]

FG arraigns ex aviation minister Stella Oduah over alleged

Venezuelan opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate María Corina Machado will not attend today’s award ceremony in Oslo because of a long standing travel ban imposed by President Nicolás Maduro’s government. The 58 year old has been barred from leaving Venezuela for about a decade and has been in hiding since August 2024, when authorities intensified a crackdown on opposition figures after a disputed election.​ The Norwegian Nobel Institute said it cancelled a planned press conference on Tuesday because Machado’s whereabouts and travel plans could not be confirmed. Officials stressed that the ceremony will still go ahead and will highlight the democratic struggle in Venezuela even in her absence.​ Machado was awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for her leadership in the fight for democracy and human rights under Venezuela’s increasingly authoritarian rule. The Nobel committee praised her for […]

Venezuela bans Turkish Airlines, Others over US warning

Venezuela has banned Turkish Airlines and several other foreign carriers after they suspended flights to the country following a United States security alert. The US had warned its citizens against travelling to Venezuela and flagged possible risks to aircraft operating in its airspace.​ In response, some airlines halted services, citing the security advisory and concerns for passenger safety. The Venezuelan government reacted by suspending those airlines from operating in its territory, accusing them of bowing to pressure from Washington.​ Authorities in Caracas described the US warning as politically motivated and said it was part of ongoing pressure on President Nicolás Maduro’s government. They argued that Venezuela’s airspace is safe and insisted that the decision by some airlines to stop flights was unjustified.​ Officials said airlines that maintain operations in the country will continue to receive full support, while those that […]

Trump Rules Out War With Venezuela but Says Maduro’s Time Is Up

Former US President Donald Trump has dismissed the possibility of a war with Venezuela but said that the country’s leader, Nicolas Maduro, will not remain in power for long. Speaking in a CBS “60 Minutes” interview aired on Sunday, Trump said he did not believe the United States was preparing for war against Venezuela, even as Washington increases its military presence in the Caribbean. “I doubt it. I don’t think so,” Trump said when asked about the prospect of US military intervention. However, when pressed on whether Maduro’s days as president were numbered, Trump replied, “I would say yeah. I think so, yeah.” The comments come amid growing tension between Washington and Caracas. The US has recently conducted multiple air and sea strikes on what it described as drug-trafficking vessels in the Caribbean and Pacific, reportedly killing at least 65 […]

Venezuela’s Maria Corina Machado Wins Nobel Peace Prize

Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado has been awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize. The Norwegian Nobel Committee honored her for her "tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela" and her struggle to achieve a "just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy." Machado is a prominent figure in the opposition against the government of Nicolás Maduro. The award recognizes her long-standing activism and dedication to peaceful democratic change in the South American country. The announcement means US President Donald Trump, who was publicly backed for the prize by Israel's president earlier in the week, did not receive the award.

Venezuela’s Maduro Threatens State of Emergency Over US ‘Aggression’

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro warned on Monday that he is prepared to declare a state of emergency in response to what he called escalating US military aggression. His comments follow a string of deadly American strikes on suspected Venezuelan drug boats in the Caribbean. “Today the consultation process began…to declare a state of emergency in accordance with the constitution and protect our people, our peace, and our stability if Venezuela were attacked by the American empire, attacked militarily,” Maduro said in a televised address. Earlier, Vice President Delcy Rodriguez told foreign diplomats that Maduro had already signed a decree granting him special powers in defense and security should the US move against Venezuela. But a government source later clarified that the president had not yet formally signed the document, though it was ready for enactment at any time. The tensions […]
