.Saab, a close ally of Maduro, said Trump aims to turn Venezuela into a “colony” of the United States. His remarks come amid growing tensions following a series of US military actions in the region.
Trump has accused Maduro of leading a major drug-trafficking organization, a claim the Venezuelan president strongly denies. However, fears are growing in Caracas that Washington’s recent military buildup could be a step toward regime change.

US Actions in South America

The United States has increased its naval and air presence near Venezuela. According to US officials, American forces have carried out at least 43 air strikes on vessels suspected of smuggling drugs.
Trump has defended the operations, describing them as part of a broader strategy to “keep the sea under control.” He also hinted that the US might soon “look at land,” suggesting a possible expansion of military operations.
In Venezuela, officials have condemned the statements, calling them evidence of aggression and interference. Saab argued that the US strategy violates international law and threatens regional peace.

Rising Tensions and Global Response

Observers warn that the Trump Venezuela conflict could destabilize Latin America further. Regional leaders have urged restraint and dialogue. International organizations are also calling for both sides to avoid escalation and prioritize diplomacy.
As the standoff deepens, the world watches to see whether the dispute will remain political or move closer to confrontation.
